Ch 07 - The Working Cell; Energy from Food

AB
autotrophorganism that gets energy directly from the sun or organic molecules
photosynthesisprocess where plants use the sun's energy to convert H2O and CO2 into sugars
producerautotroph
heterotrophorganism that obtains energy by eating other organisms
consumerorganism that obtains by eating producers (autotrophs) or other consumers
cellular respirationprocess that converts chemical energy stored in organic molecules into ATP
kinetic energyenergy of motion
potential energyenergy stored due to an object's position or arrangement
thermal energytotal amount of energy associated with the random movement of atoms and molecules
chemical energypotential to perform work due to the arrangement of atoms within molecules
calorieamount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 g of water 1°C
ATPAdenosine triphosphate; molecule cells use to run their cell reactions
aerobicrequiring oxygen
electron transport chainlast step of cellular respiration; oxygen is required; 32 ATP made
metabolismall of a cell's chemical processes
glycolysisfirst stage of cellular respiration and fermentation; glucose is split
Krebs cyclesecond stage in cellular respiration; lots of electrons are made
fermentationcellular process of making ATP without oxygen
anaerobicwithout oxygen
reactants in cellular respirationglucose and oxygen
products in cellular respirationATP, water, carbon dioxide
mitochondriaorganelle where ATP is made during cellular respiration
