Biology: Cellular Respiration Flashcards
Producer
an organism that can create its own food
Autotroph
Producer
Consumer
organism that get there energy from food
Kinetic energy
Energy and motion, going down the slide
Thermal energy
Heat energy, random motion of molecules
Heterotroph
Consumer
Potential energy
Stored energy, at the top of the slide
Chemical energy
Energy in the structure of a molecule
Photosynthesis
Cycle of how energy gets to plants
Cellular respiration
Chemical process that uses oxygen to convert chemical energy in glucose to ATP
ATP
Molecule containing energy, how energy is used in cell
Calorie
A measurement of energy
Equation for Cellular Respiration
C6H12O6 + 6O2 –> 6H2O + 6CO2 + 36 ATP
Aerobic
Requiring oxygen
Metabolism
All of the cells chemical processes
