To absorb fully; to adopt as one's own; to adapt fully

• Aclimate

• Aquate

• Accumulate

• Assimilate

ATP is described as

• Energy from the sun that is converted into readily available energy for cell processes in the chloroplast

• Readily available energy source for cellular processes and life functions

• Glucose energy that is used by the mitochondria

• Readily available energy source for photosynthesis and life functions

​ (a)   macromolecules made up of repeating simple sugars (such as glucose) that provide fast energy

• Carbohydrates
• Nucleic acids
• Lipids
• Proteins

A​ (a)   is places where more carbon is stored than it is released

• Carbon sink
• Carbon source

Any natural or human activity that releases carbon into the atmosphere

• carbon diffusion

• carbon source

• carbon sink

• carbon accumulation

What is the process that releases ATP energy by breaking the bonds in a glucose molecule?

• Cellular Respiration
• Photosynthesis

• Chloroplast

• Mitochondria

The ​ (a)   is an organelle found in cells of plants and some other organisms that captures sunlight energy and converts it into chemical energy

• chloroplast
• lysosome
• mitocondria
• nucleus

Combustion is described as:

• A chemical reaction that breaks down compounds into simpler products

• The burning of wood that releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere

• The collection of fossil fuels extracted from the geosphere

• The burning of fuels that releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere

a chemical reaction that breaks down compounds into simpler products

• Deposition

• Deforestation

• Decomposition

• Decombustion

The removal of trees faster than forests can replace themselves

• deforestation

• deposition

• decombustion

• diffusion
