Respiration/Photosynthesis

4. Pigment that absorbs sunlight in plants in order to power photosynthesis.
6. Organelle inside eukaryotic cells in which cellular respiration occurs ("the energy factories" of the cells).
10. Main energy molecule used by cells.
13. This is the solar energy source used to power photosynthesis in plants.
15. Process cells use to release energy from glucose with the help of oxygen and enzymes (and form ATP energy molecules).
16. Gas (product) released during cellular respiration.

1. Organelle in plant cells that carries out photosynthesis.
2. Final stage of cellular respiration in which most of the ATP energy molecules are made and water is produced (abbreviated "ETC").
3. Jelly-like, liquid substance inside cells.
5. Process plant cells use to produce glucose and release oxygen.
7. Gas (product) released during photosynthesis (but an important reactant during cellular respiration).
8. Second stage of cellular respiration occurring in the mitochondria (primarily producing NADH and FADH2 energy carriers).
9. Sugar made during photosynthesis (and used for energy production during cellular respiration.
11. First step of cellular respiration occurring in the cytoplasm (in which glucose gets split into two).
12. Liquid that is a vital reactant in photosynthesis reaction (and a product of cellular respiration).
14. One of the main energy-carrying molecules made during cellular respiration to carry hydrogen atoms and electrons to the ETC.
16. Basic unit of life.
