CELLULAR RESPIRATION

Cards (13)

  • Cellular Respiration
    The process by which
    organisms break down
    glucose into a form that the
    cell can use as energy
  • Enzyme
    Biological Molecules that
    speed up chemical reaction
    within cells.
  • Phosphorylate
    Introduce a Phosphate group
    (“P”) into a molecule or
    compound.
  • Isomerize
    Change from one isomer
    molecule to another. (structure
    and function)
  • Aerobic
    Process that requires oxygen
  • Anaerobic
    Process that does not require
    oxygen
  • ATP
    Adenosine triphosphate, the
    primary energy carrier in living
    things
  • Glycolysis
