Across
- 5. - series of electron carrier proteins that shuttle high-energy electrons during ATP-generating reactions
- 7. - process that requires oxygen
- 8. - second stage of cellular respiration in which pyruvic acid is broken down into carbon dioxide in a series of energy-extracting reactions
- 9. - first set of reactions in cellular respiration during which a molecule of glucose is broken into 2 molecules of pyruvic acid
- 10. - measure of heat energy in food; equivalent to 1000 calories
Down
- 1. - process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen
- 2. - innermost compartment of the mitochondrion
- 3. - process by which cells release energy in the absence of oxygen
