Photosynthesis
|
The process plants use to make carbohydrates (glucose)
|
|
Formula
|
6H20 + 6CO2 ---> C6H1206 + 6O2
|
|
Organisms
|
Plants, Algae
|
|
Light Dependent Reaction
|
Convert Light energy into chemical energy
|
|
Chlorophyll
|
(a & b) chlorophyll in forms a and b absorbs most wavelengths of light except for green
|
|
Electron Transport Chain
|
A series of proteins embedded in the thylakoid membrane
|
|
ATP
|
Energy storing molecules in cells
|
|
NADP
|
Electron carrier molecule
|
|
Stroma
|
Where electron is stored
|
|
Photolysis
|
To replace the lost electrons, molecules of water are split. Each water molecule produces one-half molecule of oxygen gas, two hyrdrogen ions, and two electrons
|
|
Light Independent Reaction
|
produces glucose
|
|
Calvin Cycle
|
carbon dioxide is fixed and six-carbon sugar formed
|
|
Cellular Respiration
|
The process in which glucose is broken down into: water, carbon dioxide, and ATP
|
|
Formula
|
C6H12O2 + O2 ---> CO2 + H20 + ATP
|

|
Organelle
|
Mitochondria
|
|
Aerobic Respiration
|
The release of energy from glucose in the presence of oxygen
|
|
Anaerobic Respiration
|
The absence of air respiration in which an inorganic molecule other than oxygen is the final electron acceptor
|
|
Glycolysis
|
