Chemical energy

stored in the bonds of chemical compounds, allowing energy to be transported

ATP

Adenosine diphosphate; stores and releases energy

ADP

Adenosine Triphosphate; when the bond between 2 and 3 phosphate groups is broken, energy is released, creating this

Chloroplast

Pigment in chlorophyll where photosynthesis occurs

Thylakoid

Sac-like stacks in the chloroplast

Stroma

Space surrounding the sac

Cellular respiration

All organisms break down glucose to produce energy in the form of ATP

Photosynthesis

When plants create food for themselves

Aerobic Respiration

Oxygen IS avalible

36 ATP

Anaerobic Respiration

Oxygen IS NOT avalible

4 ATP

Energy

The ability to do work

Chlorophyll

Catches light energy

First step of photosynthesis

Plant takes in the light

Electron transport chain

When electrons are passed along to different molecules

Glycolysis

First step to cellular respiration

Dark reaction

Converts glucose into water and carbon dioxide

Glucose

Begins the process of respiration

Light and dark reactions

Two parts of photosynthesis

ATP and NADPH

Molecules that are produced in the light reactions and travel to the dark reactions

Photolysis

Splits water molecules into light

H2O and light energy

Inputs and outputs of photosynthesis
