| A | B |
|---|
| photosynthesis | process where plants capture energy and make complex molecules |
| Where does respiration occur? | mitochondria |
| When does the rate of photosynthesis increase? | response to increasing light intensity |
| What is the rate of photosynthesis affected by? | changes in the plant's environment |
| Example of an autotroph | plant |
| chlorophyll | color pigment in plant responsible for absorbing light |
| glucose | food produced in photosynthesis |
| energy that is stored in food or in ATP | potential energy |
| substrate | fits into active site of enzyme |
| what do enzymes as catalysts do? | speed up reactions |
| heterotrophs | eat/consume other organisms for energy |
| What causes sore muscles? | lactic acid build up and fermentation of muscle cells |
| autotrophs | organism that performs photosynthesis and get energy from sunlight |
| lactic acid fermentation | results in formation of lactic acid |
| What is the original source of energy? | the sun |
| What products result from alcoholic fermentation? | alcohol and CO2 |
| kinetic energy | energy in motion |
| anaerobic respiration | does not require oxygen |
| What occurs when chlorophyll absorbs light? | electrons raised to a higher energy level |
| plastid | cell that contains chloroplasts |
| enzymes | protein catalysts of living things |
| mitochondria | organelle responsible for cellular respiration |
| aerobic respiration | process where oxygen and food is taken in and H2O, CO2 and energy are released |
