Unit 2

The process in which plants and some other organisms use the energy in sunlight to make food.

• photosynthesis

• cellular respiration

• osmosis

• diffusion

The process that occurs when the chemical energy of "food" molecules, carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, is released and partially captured in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

• photosynthesis

• diffusion

• osmosisi

• cellular respiration

The form of cell respiration that can take place in the absence of free oxygen.

• diffusion

• anaerobic

• aerobic

• osmosis

The form of in cell respiration that requires free oxygen.

• aerobic

• anaerobic

• photosynthesis

• cellular respiration

The dependence of two or more things on each other

• dependence

• photosynthesis

• interdependence

• cellular respiration

Conversion of carbohydrates into alcohols

• fermentation

• anaerobic

• aerobic

• cellular respiration

An organism that cannot create its own energy and must instead rely on consuming nutrients from other organisms.

• fermentation

• photosynthesis

• heterotroph

• autotroph

Any organism that can create its own food from inorganic materials.

• autotroph

• heterotroph

• photosynthesis

• cellular respiration

An organelle in plant and algae cells that converts energy from sunlight into chemical energy that the plant can use

• chlorophyll

• chloroplast

• mitochondria

• nucleus
