Definition
A catabolic process that makes a limited amount of ATP from glucose without an electron transport chain and that produces a characteristic end product, such as ethyl alcohol or lactic acid. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The conversion of pyrivate to carbon dioxide and ethyl alcohol. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The conversion of pyrivate to lactate with no release of carbon dioxide. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A sequence of electron carrier molecules (membrane proteins) that shuttle electrons during the redox reactions that release energy to make ATP. |
|
|
Term
Oxidative Phosphorylation |
|
Definition
The production of ATP using energy derived from the redox reaction of an electron transport chain. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The process of generating ATP from ADP and phosphate by means of a proton-motive force generated by the thylakoid membrane of the chloroplast during the light reactions of photosynthesis. |

Term
|
Definition
Containing oxygen; referring to an organism, environment, or cellular process that requires oxygen. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Lacking oxygen; referring to an organism, environment, or cellular process that lacks oxygen and may be poisoned by it. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The generation of ATP that involves only photosystem I and that produces ATP but not NADPH of oxygen. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The production of ATP that involves both photosystems and produces ATP, NADPH, and oxygen. |

Definition
An organism that obtains organic food molecules by eating other organisms or their by-products. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A plant that uses the Calvin Cycle for the initial steps that incorporate CO2 into organic material, forming a three-carbon compound as the first stable intermediate. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A plant that preface the Calvin cycle with reactions that incorporate CO2 into four-carbon compounds, the end product of which supplies CO2 for the Calvin cycle. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Photosynthesis where CO2 is converted into malate (4C) in mesophyll cells, which is moved to bundle sheath cells to be turned into CO2 again and go through the Calvin cycle. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Photosyntheis where CO2 is converted into an organic acid at night and changed back into CO2 and put into the Calvin cycle during the day. |

Term
|
Definition
An accessory pigment, either yellow or orange, in the chloroplasts of plants. |
