Photosynthesis and respiration Crossword

An organism that eats plants or other animals for food
Cellular Respiration that takes place when there is no oxygen
Short for Adenosine Triphosphate. It is the energy that is released when the mitochondrion breaks down the sugars you have eaten
The first step of cellular respiration where glucose is broken in half and two ATP energy units are released
Sugars produced by photosynthesis
Cellular respiration that takes place when there is oxygen
The process that takes place inside all eukaryotic cells that breaks down sugars to produce energy in the form of ATP
An organelle inside an animal and plant cell where cellular respiration takes place
The process by which plants use carbon dioxide plus energy from the sun to create sugars and oxygen
The second of two major stages in Photosynthesis
The steps in photosynthesis that occur on the thylakoid membranes of the choroplast and that convert solar energy to the chemical energy of ATP and NADPH, evolving oxygen in the process
An organelle inside a plant cell only where photosynthesis takes place
organism that can capture energy from sunlight or chemicals and use it to produce its own food from inorganic compounds; also called a producer
primary light absorbing pigment in autotrophs
Produces 36 ATP energy uits for each sugar molecule broken up
The small openings on the undersides of most leaves through which oxygen and carbon dioxide can move
This type of organism exchanges oxygen and carbon dioxide directly with the environment through their cell membranes
Breaks down glucose into 2 molecules of pyruvate
the reversal of the chemical reactions that take place in photosynthesis
Carries the high energy electrons to reactions in the cell
