- 5. an organelle within the cells of plants and certain algae that is the site of photosynthesis
- 6. the source of energy for use and storage at the cellular level
- 8. A type of sugar; the chief source of energy for living organisms
- 10. A chemical process in which oxygen is used to make energy from carbohydrates (sugars)
- 11. tiny little openings in the exterior surface of an organism's skin or a structure

- 1. the process by which organisms combine oxygen with foodstuff molecules
- 2. a chemical your body produces when your cells break down carbohydrates for energy
- 4. the whole sum of reactions that occur throughout the body within each cell and that provide the body with energy
- 5. a colorless, odorless gas found in our atmosphere
- 7. the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water. Photosynthesis in plants generally involves the green pigment chlorophyll and generates oxygen as a byproduct.
- 9. the strength and vitality required for sustained physical or mental activity.
- 13. a biological molecule consisting of one adenine, one sugar, and two phosphates
- 14. the anaerobic transformation of fructose and glucose (sugars) into ethanol and carbon dioxide
- 17. any coloured material found in a plant or animal cell
