AB
a chemical compound used by living organisms to store and release energyAdenosine Triphosphate (ATP)
a chemical compound that can be converted to ATP with the addition of one phosphate groupAdenoside Diphosphate (ADP)
process used in cells to break down glucose and produce ATPCellular respiration
the first step in cellular respiration that takes place in the cytoplasm and converts one molecule of glucose to a net of two molecules of ATPGlycolysis
process that requires oxygen to produce a net of 36 molecules of ATP for every one molecule of glucoseAerobic respiration
part of the cell where aerobic respiration takes placemitochondria
the part of aerobic respiration that takes place in the mitochondria and produces two molecules of ATP for every one molecule of glucoseKrebs cycle
the part of aerobic respiration that occurs in the mitochondria after the Krebs cycle and produces a net of 36 more ATP molecules for every one molecule of glucoseElectron Transport Chain (CR)
process that does not require oxygen and produces a net of 2 molecules of ATP for every one molecule of glucoseAnaerobic Respiration
anaerobic cellular respiration that occurs in animals and some bacterialactic acid fermentation
anaerobic cellular respiration that occurs in plants and other microorganisms such as yeastalcoholic fermentation
organisms, such as animals, that obtain energy by consuming plants and other animalsheterotrophs
organisms, such as plants, that usually use energy directly from the sun to produce glucose and other carbohydratesautotrophs
the process of converting the inorganic carbon found in carbon dioxide to organic carbon in glucosecarbon fixation
process used by autotrophs that uses the sun's energy to convert water and carbon dioxide to glucose (simple sugar) and oxygenphotosynthesis
the green pigment found in chloroplasts of plant cells that absorbs energy form the sub and uses that energy in the first stage of photosynthesischlorophyll
the stage of photosynthesis that does not require lightCalvin cycle
Organelle in which photosynthesis occurschloroplasts
Another name for the Calvin Cycle of photosynthesisLight Independent Reactions
First part of photosynthesis in which light energy is captured from the sun and ADP is converted into ATPLight Dependent Reactions
