| ATP | Stored Chemical Energy - called currency of a cell |
| ADP | Reduced form of ATP |
| Photosynthesis | Converts light energy into glucose |
| Chlorophyll | Pigment that captures light energy |
| Thylakoids | compartment in a chloroplast where the light is captured |
| Light-Dependent Reactions | Light is captured and changed into temporary chemical energy |
| Light-Independent Reactions | temporary chemical energy is converted to glucose |
| Photosystems | molecule that move electrons through the thylakoid's membrane |
| Electron Transport Chain | electrons pass through the membrane to increase the concentration of hydrogen ions |
| ATP Synthase | Enzyme that uses hydrogen ions to create ATP |
| Calvin Cycle | Cycle that creates glucose using energy and carbon dioxide |
| Cellular Respiration | Process of breaking glucose into energy |
| Aerobic | Uses oxygen |
| Anaerobic | Does not use oxygen |
| Glycolysis | Breaks glucose into pyruvates |
| Krebs Cycle | Produces the energy to run the electron transport chain |
| Fermentation | Allows for the process of glycolysis to continue |
| Lactic Acid | By-product of fermentation in the body |
