18
Q

light reactions

A

first stage of photosynthesisin which light energy from the sun is captured and changed into chemical energy that is stored in ATP and NADPH

19
Q

thylakoid

A

flattened sac of membrane insixe a chloroplast where the first stage of photosynthesis (light reactions) occurs

20
Q

electron carrier

A

molecules that accet and temporarily hold high-energy electrons

21
Q

electron transport

A

3rd stage pf cellular respiration, which occurs n the inner membrane of mitochondria, requires oxygen, and producess up to 34 ATP

22
Q

ATP

A

energy carrying molecule that cells use to power their metabolic processes; provides the cell w/ an immediate usable form of energy

23
Q

NADPH

A

short-term energy carrier; temporarily stoesenergy during photosynthesis

24
Q

Calvin Cycle

A

2nd stage f photosynthesis in which carbon atoms form carbn dioxide are combined, usinbg the energy in ATP and NADPH, to make glucose

25
Q

glucose

A

simple sugar that all living things use to store and transport energy

26
Q

photolysis

A

splitting water by light; produces thr hydrogen ions and electronds used in light reactions and oxygen atoms

27
Q

electron transport chain

A

series of elecrton transport molecule tyhat pass high-energy electrons from molecule to molecul and captire their energy

28
Q

chemiosmotic gradient

A

an electrochemical gradient across the thylakoid membrane of the mitochondrion; due to concentration difference of both positive cjarges and hydrogen ions

29
Q

Krebs Cycle

A

2nd stage of cellular respiration in which two pyruvate molecules from the first stage to form ATP, NADPH, and FADH2 in the presemce of ocygen

30
Q

NADH

A

Short-term energy carrier; temporarily stores energy during cellular respiration

31
Q

mitochondrion

A

Organelle in eukaryotic cells that uses energy stored in glucose to make atp, which cells can use for energy

32
Q

carbon fixation

A

Process in which an organism builds low energy in organic CO2 into high energy organic molecule like glucose

33
Q

starch

A

Large, complex carbohydrate found in food such as grains and vegetables that the body uses for energy matter plus water is recycled. none can be added or lost
