Chapter 8 Cellular Energy

Use this activity to review your understanding of the terms and concepts used to describe the energy releasing process of cellular respiration.

AB
aerobic respirationincludes the Kreb Cycle and electron transport and is an aerobic process
glycolysisthe process that breaks down glucose into two molecules of ATP and two molecules of NADH
rubiscoin the final step of the Calvin Cycle, an enzyme that converts the remaining ten G3P molecules into ribulose
Calvin Cyclelight-independent reactions during phase two of photosynthesis in which energy id stored in organic molecules as glucose
ATPenergy-carrying biological molecule, which, when broken down, drives cellular activities
granastacks of pigment-containing thylakoids in a plant's chloroplasts
NADHin photosynthesis, the major elctron carrier involved in electron transports
pigmentlight-absorbing colored molecule, such as chlorophyll and carotenoid, in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts
anaerobic processmetabolic process that does not require oxygen
Cellular respirationthe catabolic pathway in organic molecules are broken down to release energy for use by a cell
Thylakoidsflattened, saclike membranes that are arranged in stacks (chloroplasts)
stromafluid-filled space outside the grana in shich light-dependent reactions take place
photosynthesisthe anabolic pathway in which light energy form the Sun id caonverted to chemical energy for use by the cell
Krebs cycleseries of reactions in which pyruvate is broken down into carbon dioxide
aerobic processa metabolic process that requires oxygen
fermentationoccurs in the cytoplasm and regenerates the cell's supply of NAD while producing a small amount of ATP
energythe ability to do work
Thermodynamicsthe study of the flow and the transformation of energy in the universe
metabolismall of the chemical reactions in a cell
