Chapter 9

Front 1

composed of an adenosine molecule with three phosphate groups attached. A molecule in your cells that is a quick source of energy for any organelle in the cell that needs it. This energy is stored in the chemical bonds of the molecule and can be used quickly and easily by the cell.

Back 1

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)

Front 2

when a second phosphate group is added, more energy is required to force the two groups together.

Back 2

Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP)

Front 3

the process that uses the sun’s energy to make simple sugars.

Back 3

Photosynthesis

Front 4

convert light energy into chemical energy.

Back 4

light-dependent reactions

Front 5

that produce simple sugars.

Back 5

light-independent reactions

Front 6

molecules that absorb specific wavelengths of sunlight.

Back 6

Pigments

Front 7

absorbs most wavelengths of light except green

Back 7

Chlorophyll

Front 8

a series of proteins embedded in the thylakoid membrane.

Back 8

electron transport chain

Front 9

to replace the lost electrons, molecules of water are split in the first photosystem. this reaction is called

Back 9

photolysis.

Front 10

a series of reactions that use carbon dioxide to form sugars. Takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast.

Back 10

Calvin Cycle

Front 11

The process by which mitochondria break down food molecules to produce ATP is called

Back 11

Cellular Respiration.

Front 12

no oxygen is required.

Back 12

anaerobic

Front 13

require oxygen to be completed.

Back 13

aerobic

Front 14

is a series of chemical reactions in the cytoplasm of a cell that break down glucose, a six-carbon compound, into two molecules of pyruvic acid, a three-carbon compound.

Back 14

Glycolysis

Front 15

a series of chemical reactions similar to the calvin cycle in that the molecule used in the first reaction is also one of the end products.

Back 15

The Citric Acid Cycle

Front 16

the reactions in photosynthesis in which energy from the sun is converted to chemical energy

Back 16

light reactions

Front 17

In glycolysis, glucose is converted to this molecule when the first phosphate is added

Back 17

PGAL

Front 18

this is the 3 carbon molecule produced when the glucose molecule is split

Back 18

ADP

Front 19

in the "light reaction" where does the first hydrogen come from that produces the high energy electron for the transport system?

Back 19

5th stage

Front 20

the thick liquid found in the chloroplast

Back 20

pigment

Front 21

these are the "stacks" of thylakoids (2nd time on here)

Back 21

Chlorophyll
