Across
  1. 2. cycle A series of reactions in the mitochondrial matrix that produce electron carriers and CO2 from pyruvate.
  2. 5. respiration The process of converting biochemical energy from nutrients into ATP, involving glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain.
  3. 6. The product formed when ATP loses a phosphate group, releasing energy.
  4. 8. The innermost part of the mitochondrion where the Krebs cycle occurs.
  5. 11. Processes that break down molecules to release energy.
  6. 14. The main pigment in plants that absorbs light for photosynthesis
  7. 16. membrane: The membrane of the mitochondrion where the electron transport chain and ATP synthase are located.
  8. 17. Processes that build complex molecules from simpler ones, requiring energy.
Down
  1. 1. Processes that do not require oxygen, like anaerobic respiration or fermentation
  2. 3. energy Energy that is stored in molecules like glucose.
  3. 4. The first stage of cellular respiration, where glucose is broken down into pyruvate.
  4. 6. Processes that require oxygen, like aerobic respiration.
  5. 7. Molecules that absorb light energy, crucial for photosynthesis.
  6. 9. transport chain In cellular respiration, the chain that transfers electrons from NADH and FADH2 to produce ATP.
  7. 10. energy Energy that is released from molecules, often used in cellular functions like movement or synthesis.
  8. 12. synthase An enzyme that synthesizes ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate, powered by a proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane.
  9. 13. A waste product of cellular respiration and a substrate in photosynthesis.
  10. 15. The final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration and a product of photosynthesis.
