Across
  1. 2. a molecule in chloroplasts that absorbs some of the energy in visible light
  2. 5. is a lower-energy molecule that can be converted into ATP
  3. 6. it's what causes your muscles to "burn" during hard exercise.
  4. 7. does not need oxygen to take place
  5. 8. stacks of coin-shaped, membranes-enclosed compartments
  6. 12. meaning that it needs oxygen to take place
  7. 14. splits glucose into two three-carbon molecules and makes two molecules of ATP
  8. 16. uses energy from the light-dependent reactions to make sugars
Down
  1. 1. transfers energy to cell processes
  2. 3. captures energy from sunlight
  3. 4. releases chemical energy from sugars and other carbon-based molecules to make ATP when oxygen is present
  4. 9. a process that captures energy from the sunlight to make sugars that store chemical energy
  5. 10. a process by which some organisms use chemical energy instead of light energy to make energy-storing carbon-based molecules
  6. 11. does not make ATP, but it allows glycolysis to continue
  7. 13. a series of chemical reactions
  8. 15. produces molecules that carry energy to the second part of the cellular respiration
