| Calorie | The amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius |
| Glycolysis | A pathway that releases only a small amount of energy. |
| Cellular Respiration | The process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen. |
| NAD+ | An electron carrier that accepts a pair of high energy electrons. |
