Unit 4 - Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration

3. The chemical process by which cells make a small amount of ATP without oxygen.
5. Biomolecules like sugars and starches that organisms use for energy storage.
8. Cellular respiration that requires oxygen to produce energy from glucose.
10. A simple sugar that provides energy to living organisms.
11. Energy stored in the bonds between atoms in molecules like glucose and ATP.
13. The organelle in plant cells where photosynthesis takes place.
14. The process of producing energy from glucose without using oxygen.

1. The cell organelle responsible for producing ATP through cellular respiration.
2. The process by which cells break down food molecules to release usable energy in the form of ATP.
4. The process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make glucose and oxygen.
6. The continuous movement of carbon among organisms, the atmosphere, soil, and oceans.
7. Solar energy absorbed by plants to power the creation of sugar.
8. The main energy molecule that cells use to store and release energy for biological processes.
9. The lower energy molecule that is recharged into ATP when a phosphate group is added.
11. The green pigment in plants that absorbs light energy to drive photosynthesis.
12. The starting materials or input molecules in a chemical reaction.
