Photosynthesis | The process during which a plants chloroplast trap light energy and sugars are produced CO2+H2O+Sunlight(energy) -> 02+C6H1206 |
Glucose | the main sugar produced during photosynthesis;the basic food source (C6H1206) |
Stomata | the pores on the bottom of the leaf that help the plant "breath" |
Light-Depended Reaction | the first stage of photosynthesis,occurring only in the presence of light,during which energy captured from light breaks apart H20 and creates ATP and O2 |
Light-Independed Reaction | the second stage of photosynthesis,occurring without light,during which ATP,H2O and CO2 are combined to make glucose (C6H12O6) |
Cellular Respiration | a series of chemical reactions that breaks down molecules and releases energy O2+C6H12O6 -> CO2+H2O+ATP (energy) |
ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) | the energy carrying molecule that is the basic unit of energy that life forms like to use C6H12N5O13P3 |
Aerobic Respiration | respiration in which molecular oxygen and glucose is consumed and carbon dioxide,waterand 36 molecules of ATP are produced |
Anaerobic Respiration | respiration in which and glucose is consumed without oxygen and carbon dioxide,water, and 2 molecules of ATP are produced |
Carbon Cycle | the cycling of carbon through the enviroment ,passed on through photosynthesis and cellular respiration |
Nitrogen Cycle | the cycling of nitrogen through the enviroment,passed on through nitrogen fixation,decompositoin, and the food web |
