16
Q

chemiosmotic gradient

A

the gradient formed by the H+ ions

17
Q

chloroplast

A

organelle in the cells of plants and algea, that contains chlorophyll and is the site of photsynthessi

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
glucose
simple sugar that all living things use to store and transport energy
26
photolysis
splitting water by light; produces thr hydrogen ions and electronds used in light reactions and oxygen atoms
27
electron transport chain
series of elecrton transport molecule tyhat pass high-energy electrons from molecule to molecul and captire their energy
28
chemiosmotic gradient
an electrochemical gradient across the thylakoid membrane of the mitochondrion; due to concentration difference of both positive cjarges and hydrogen ions
29
Krebs Cycle
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
NADH
Short-term energy carrier; temporarily stores energy during cellular respiration
31
mitochondrion
Organelle in eukaryotic cells that uses energy stored in glucose to make atp, which cells can use for energy
32
carbon fixation
Process in which an organism builds low energy in organic CO2 into high energy organic molecule like glucose
33
starch
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
