Unit 2 Vocab

5. describes a situation in which oxygen is present.
6. adenosine diphosphate, uncharged energy storage molecule with 2 phosphates.
10. sphere of earth, all water on earth.
11. macromolecule, forms the backbone for all living things.
12. First site of Aerobic respiration breaks down glucose into pyruvate, make some NADH.
14. third step of aerobic respiration, NADH and FADH, from earlier reactions are used to make 32 units of ATP.
17. second step of aerobic respiration pyruvate is broken down while NADH and FADH2 are made, releases CO2.
18. type of organism that must eat other organisms to obtain energy.
20. type of organism that is able to make its own food, base of the food chain.
23. first step of photosynthesis, uses sunlight tosplit H2O and make atp and NADPH releasing O2.
25. organelle, site of steps 2 and 3 of aerobic cellular respiration.
26. pigment in chloroplast, used to trap light energy during photosynthesis.
27. anything that has mass and takes up space, makes up everything.
28. type of organism that breaks down biotic compounds, recyclers.

1. Nutrient, used in phosphates of nucleic acids and phospholipids of membranes, often limited.
2. describes a situation in which oxygen is not present.
3. process of breaking down glucose to mae atp, starts with glucose and ends with CO2 and H2O.
4. sphere of earth, all the soils and rocks on earth.
7. sphere of earth, all the gasses surrounding earth.
8. process of using light energy to make glucose, starts with CO2 & H2O and ends with C6H12O6 (glucose).
9. second type of anaerobic respiration, 2 types include alcoholic and lactic acid.
13. second step of photosynthesis, uses energy in ATP and, NADPH to make glucose from O2.
15. Nutrient, used in proteins and nucleic acids must be "fixed" for living things to use, often limited.
