Across
- 1. Process that requires oxygen to occur
- 4. Membrane-bound structure within chloroplasts that contains chlorophyll and other light-absorbing pigments used in the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis
- 8. Process of producing ATP by breaking down carbon-based molecules when oxygen is present
- 14. Part of photosynthesis that absorbs energy from sunlight and transfers energy back to the light independent reactions
- 15. Process by which ATP is synthesized by using chemicals as an energy source instead of light
- 17. Series of light-absorbing pigments and proteins that capture and transfer energy in the thylakoid membrane
- 19. Process by which light energy is converted to chemical energy; produces sugar and oxygen from carbon dioxide and water
Down
- 2. Light-absorbing pigment molecule in photosynthetic organisms
- 3. Product of fermentation in many types of cells, including human muscle cells
- 5. Process during cellular respiration that breaks down a carbon molecule to produce molecules that are used in the electron transport chain
- 6. Part of photosynthesis that uses energy absorbed during the light-dependent reactions to synthesize carbohydrates
- 7. Process by which a photosynthetic organism uses energy to synthesize simple sugars from CO2
- 9. Process that does not require oxygen to occur
- 10. High-energy molecule that contains, within its bonds energy, that cells can use
- 11. Anaerobic process in which glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate and two net ATP are produced
- 12. Low energy molecule that can be converted to ATP
- 13. Series of proteins in the thylakoid and mitochondrial membranes that aid in converting ADP to ATP by transferring electrons
- 16. Enzyme that catalyzes the reaction that adds up a high-energy phosphate group to ADP to form ATP
