Across
- 4. the sequence of reactions by which most living cells generate energy during the process of aerobic respiration.
- 9. Is a molecule in chloroplasts, that absorbs some of the energy in visible light
- 11. an organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur.
- 12. is a lower-energy molecule that can be converted into ATP
- 14. photosynthesis are chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and other compounds into glucose
- 15. a colorless syrupy organic acid formed in sour milk and produced in the muscle tissues during strenuous exercise.
- 16. is a process by which some organisms use chemical energy instead of light energy
- 17. he breakdown of glucose by enzymes, releasing energy and pyruvic acid.
Down
- 1. he first stage of photosynthesis, is to convert solar energy into chemical energy in the form of NADPH and ATP
- 2. relating to or denoting exercise that improves or is intended to improve the efficiency of the body's cardiovascular system in absorbing and transporting oxygen.
- 3. is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate
- 5. a plastid that contains chlorophyll and in which photosynthesis takes place.
- 6. is a metabolic process that converts sugar to acids, gases, or alcohol without oxygen
- 7. Is a process that captures energy from sunlight to make sugars that store chemical energy
- 8. relating to, involving, or requiring an absence of free oxygen.
- 10. Transfers energy to cell processes
- 13. each of a number of flattened sacs inside a chloroplast, bounded by pigmented membranes on which the light reactions of photosynthesis take place, and arranged in stacks or grana.
- 16. refers to the light-independent reactions in photosynthesis that take place in three key steps.
