All the chemical reactions in a cell

• metabolism
• catabolism
• anabolism

Anabolic pathway that converts energy from the Sun
to chemical energy for use by cells

• Cellular respiration
• Photosynthesis

Biological molecule that provides chemical energy to cells.

• ATP
• ADP

Spontaneous increase in disorder, or entropy

• First Law of Thermodynamics
• Second Law of Thermodynamics
• Third Law of Thermodynamics

Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only change forms.

• First Law of Thermodynamics
• Second Law of Thermodynamics

Organisms that are able to use sunlight or chemicals to make food.

• Autotrophs
• Heterotrophs

Organisms that must eat other organisms to get the energy they need.

• Autotrophs
• Heterotrophs

Where do the dark reactions take place? 

• thylakoid membrane
• lumen
• stroma

What does NADPH do? 

• carries electrons to the Calvin cycle
• carries electrons to the ETC

What happens to NADPH and ATP after they are used in the Calvin Cycle?

• they recycle back to the light reactions
• they are used to make G3P
