The shape of a DNA molecule
What is a double helix?
Unlike aerobic respiration, this type of respiration does not require oxygen.
What is anaerobic respiration?
Unlike anaerobic respiration, this type of respiration requires oxygen and produces a high yield of ATP.
What is aerobic respiration?
chloroplast
What organelle is the site of photosynthesis?
the powerhouse of the cell
The mitochondria is?
This enzyme synthesizes RNA from a DNA template during transcription.
What is RNA polymerase?
This molecule is produced as a result of anaerobic respiration in muscle cells during vigorous exercise.
What is lactic acid?
The complete oxidation of one molecule of glucose during aerobic respiration yields this many ATP molecules.
What is approximately 36-38 ATP?
Oxygen gas
Osmosis
These are the three main types of RNA involved in protein synthesis.
What are mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA?
The product of anaerobic fermentation in yeast.
What is ethanol?
This high-energy electron carrier is produced during the Krebs cycle and donates electrons to the electron transport chain.
What is NADH (or FADHâ‚‚)?
Thylakoid Membrane
Where does the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis occur?
Punnett square
What is the tool used to predict the genotypic outcome of genetic crosses?
This molecular machine reads the mRNA sequence and synthesizes proteins.
What is the ribosome?
This process converts glucose into pyruvate, producing a net gain of 2 ATP molecules
What is glycolysis?
This two-carbon molecule combines with oxaloacetate to form citrate at the start of the Krebs cycle.
What is acetyl-CoA?
This molecule acts as the final electron acceptor in the light dependent reactions, forming NADPH.
What is NADP+?
Homeostasis
A process that helps maintain a stable internal environment is called?
These codons signal the end of protein synthesis.
What are stop codons?
This organism is commonly used in alcoholic fermentation to produce beer and wine.
What is yeast?
This factor is a major advantage of aerobic respiration over anaerobic respiration.
What is a higher ATP yield?
This enzyme (starting with R) catalyses the fixation of CO2 in the Calvin cycle.
What is ribulose?
What do we call the variable that we change in an experiment?
