Q

Autotrophs

A

Organisms that make its own food

17
Q

Chemoautotrophs

A

Use inorganic compounds to extract energy (synthesize sugars)

18
Q

Photoautotrophs (eukaryotes + bacteria)

A

Multicellular (plants + algae)
Unicellular (euglena)
Some Bactera (cyanobacteria)

19
Q

Endosymbiotic Theory

A

The theory that mitochondria and plastids were prokaryotes a long time ago and started living in eukaryotic cells
Reasoning:
- because the mito and cholorplast are about the same size and they possess their own DNA

20
Q

photon

A

A unit of light (electromagnetic energy) that can drive the e- to an excited state

21
Q

pigments

A

molecules that absorb light
- example: chlorophyll = green pigment molecule
Carotenoids = red, orange and yellow pigments

22
Q

Carbon Fixation with Ribulose Bisphosphate

A

an enzyme that takes the carbon from CO2 and puts it on the RuBP
