energy transport

Cards (12)

  • photosynthesis and cellular respiration are near-opposite processes. they differ only in the form of energy absorbed or realsed
  • photosynthesis isn't just cellular respiration run in reverse. photosynthesis takes place in its own unique series of steps. there are some notable similarities between photosynthesis and cellular respiration
  • cellular respiration is the energy converter in both heterotrophs and autotrophs
  • heterotrophs is a term used to describe organisms that obtain energy from other organisms
  • autotrophs is
  • the process of cellular respiration break down glucose into form that cell can use as energy
  • ATP is adenosine triphosphate, the primary energy carrier in living things
  • mitochondria is a eukaryotic cell structure where cellular respiration occurs
  • cytoplasm content of a cell between the plasma membrane and the nuclear envelop; includes cytosol which is the jelly like subtances that fills the space between organelles
  • aerobic is a process that require oxygen
  • anaerobic is a process that does not require oxygen
  • fermentation is an anaerobic pathway for breaking down glucose
