Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis

Front

Cellular Respiration

Back

Process of converting glucose into ATP

Front

Photosynthesis

Back

Conversion of light energy into chemical energy

Front

Glycolysis

Back

First step in cellular respiration, occurs in cytoplasm

Front

Chlorophyll

Back

Green pigment in plants, absorbs light for photosynthesis

Front

Mitochondria

Back

Organelle where cellular respiration occurs

Front

Light-dependent Reactions

Back

Occur in thylakoid membranes, produce ATP and NADPH

Front

Krebs Cycle

Back

Second stage of cellular respiration, occurs in mitochondria

Front

Calvin Cycle

Back

Light-independent reactions, occur in stroma, produce glucose

Front
