Name __________________________________
Match the term on the left with its definition on the right:
____ ADP
A. Most important and main compound cells use to store and
release ENERGY.
____ Aerobic
B. This is a compound made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
atoms (1:2:1); it is used by cells for short-term energy.
Examples: sugars and starches.
____ Amino Acids
C. These are LARGE chemical compounds, primarily consisting of
carbon and hydrogen, that exist in living organisms. Examples:
carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids.
____ Anaerobic
D. This is the circulation of water between land, air and surface.
Processes included evaporation, transpiration, condensation,
and precipitation.
____ ATP
E. This is a macromolecule that holds cell information in a coded
form. Made of sugar, phosphate and nitrogen-containing bases.
Two types  DNA and RNA.
____ ATP Cycle
F. This is a simple biological process not requiring oxygen.
____ Autotroph
G. Organisms that make their own food, also known as an
autotroph.
____ Macromolecule H. The cycling of carbon through the biosphere, geosphere,
hydrosphere, and atmosphere. Process include photosynthesis,
respiration, decomposition, combustion, and weathering.
____ Carbohydrate
I. This is a molecule that contains both amino group, carboxyl
group, H atom, and a variable R-group. They are the building
blocks of protein.
____ Carbon
J. This is short for adenosine diphosphate. An organic compound
that contains energy and is composed of adenine and two
phosphate groups.
____ Carbon Cycle
K. This is a biological process that requires oxygen.
____ Carbon
Dioxide
L. An organelle found in most eukaryotic cells described as
"cellular power plants", because their primary function is to
convert organic materials into energy in the form of ATP.
____ Cellular
Respiration
M. This is the name applied to the cycle by which ATP is broken
down to ADP with the release of energy, and the regeneration
of ATP from ADP through the process of phosphorylation.
____ DNA
N. This is a green pigment in chloroplasts that traps light energy
from the sun.
____ Chlorophyll
O.
6CO2 + 6H2O + sun  6O2 + C6H12O6
____ Fermentation
P.
Another name for a producer.
____ Glucose
Q. 6O2 + C6H12O6  6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
____ Heterotroph
R. C6H12O6  Sugar produced by producers during the process of
photosynthesis.
____ Lipid
S. This is the gas produced as a result of respiration.
____ Mitochondria
T. This is an organism that obtains energy by consuming food.
____ Monosaccharide U. This is the simplest type of carbohydrate, commonly known
as a SIMPLE SUGAR, which acts as a building block for larger
carbohydrates such as starches. Example: GLUCOSE
____ Nucleic Acid
V. Genetic code that contains an organism’s hereditary
information.
____ Photosynthesis W. The process by which cells release energy in the absence of
oxygen. Not efficient  produces less ATP
____ Producer
X. A macromolecule made up of mainly carbon and hydrogen
atoms that is primarily used for long-term energy storage
and in cell membranes.
____ RNA
Y. A single stranded nucleic acid that plays a role in protein
synthesis.
____ Water Cycle
Z. This is an element in the periodic table that is the basis for all
ORGANIC molecules.
