5
|
study of the flow and transformation of energy in the universe.
|
7
|
light-independent reactions during phase two of photosynthesis in which energy is stored in organic molecules as glucose.
|
10
|
in photosynthesis, the major electron carrier involved in electron transport.
|
11
|
metabolic process in which pyruvate is broken down and electron carrier molecules are used to produce ATP through electron transport.
|
12
|
process in which NAD+ is regenerated, allowing cells to maintain glycolysis in the absence of oxygen.
|
13
|
two-phase anabolic pathway in which the Sun's light energy is converted to chemical energy for use by the cell.
|
16
|
metabolic process that does not require oxygen.
|
18
|
light-absorbing colored molecule, such as chlorophyll and carotenoid, in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplast.
|
19
|
anaerobic process; first stage of cellular respiration in which glucose is broken down into two molecules of pyruvate.
|
|
|
|
|
1
|
in chloroplasts, one of the stacked, flattened, pigment-containing membranes in which light-dependent reactions occur.
|
2
|
ability to work, energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed
|
3
|
enzyme that converts inorganic carbon dioxide molecules into organic molecules during the final step of the Calvin cycle.
|
4
|
catabolic pathway in which organic molecules are broken down to release energy for use by the cell.
|
6
|
all of the chemical reactions that occur within an organism.
|
8
|
energy-carrying biological molecule, which, when broken down, drives cellular activities.
|
9
|
one of the stacks of pigment-containing thylakoids in a plant's chloroplasts.
|
14
|
series of reactions in which pyruvate is broken down into carbon dioxide inside the mitochondria of cells; also called the tricarboxylic acid cycle and the citric acid cycle.
|
15
|
a metabolic that requires oxygen.
|
17
|
fluid-filled space outside the grana in which light-dependent reactions take place.
