Across
- 1. Series of electron transporters, embedded in inner mitochondrial membrane, function is to shuttle electrons from NADH & FADH2, produces most ATP(34).
- 3. Site of light dependent reactions, in chloroplasts.
- 4. Stack of thylakoids, in chloroplasts.
- 8. 6CO2(Carbon Dioxide) + 6H2O(Water) + ATP(Solar Energy) = C6H12O6(Glucose) + 6O2(Oxygen)
- 10. Site of the Calvin Cycle (Dark Reaction), in chloroplasts.
- 13. Uses light energy to make 2 molecules needed for the next stage of photosynthesis, energy storage molecule ATP & electron carrier NADPH, also creates oxygen, takes place in thylakoid membrane.
- 14. Principle chemical compound cells use to store & release energy. Made of adenine, 5 carbon sugar, and 3 phosphate groups.
- 15. "Solar Energy Plant"-Captures energy from the sunlight & converts it into chemical energy in a process called photosynthesis, only found in plants.
Down
- 2. Opposite of photosynthesis reaction, releases energy by breaking down food molecules, takes place in plants & animals, happens in 3 processes.
- 5. "Energy Plant"-Converts chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more usable for the cell, cite for cellular respiration.
- 6. Takes place in mitochondria, also known as citric acid cycle, breaks down pyruvate into CO2, produces 2ATP & 6NADH.
- 7. Plants produce what animals use, and animals produce what plants use, so plants and animals are _______ to each other.
- 9. Also known as Calvin Cycle, no light needed, takes place in stroma, creates sugar, creates NADP & ADP.
- 11. takes place in cytoplasm, first step in breakdown of glucose to extract energy for cellular metabolism, glucose breaks down into 2-3 carbon molecules called pyruvate, same last step in both organism requiring O2(aerobic) & organisms not requiring O2(anaerobic).
- 12. Large complexes of proteins & pigments (light absorbing molecules) that are used to harvest light, 2 types (PSI & PSII).
- 14. Made of adenine, 5 carbon sugar, and 2 phosphate groups.
