Energy of life
Enzymes that phosphorylate substances by transferring phosphates groups.
What are kinases?
An organism that produces it's own food using inorganic carbon and electromagnetic energy (not specific taxa, i.e. plants).
What is an autotroph?
The three macromolecules used to make ATP.
What are lipids, carbohydrates, and proteins?
The type of environment where fermentation is completed, as it relates to oxygen.
What is anaerobic?
The type of redox reaction where NAD+ acquires electrons from the glucose molecule.
What is reduction?
The attachment site for a ligand (see image).
What is receptor?
Organisms that maintain the level of atmospheric oxygen on land or water.
What are cyanobacteria, plants, or green algae (protists)?
The organ/body structure that uses the greatest amount of ATP in human bodies.
What is brain or muscles?
The final electron acceptor.
What is pyruvate.
The molecule that is oxidized in PSII of the light reactions in photosynthesis.
What is water?
The environment the cell is found in (blue dots are solutes).
What is hypertonic?
The openings by which plants are acquire inorganic carbon.
The process by which ATP is made during glycolysis and in the Krebs cycle.
What is substrate-level phosphorylation?
The byproduct from muscle cells fermentation.
What is lactic acid?
The molecule that CO2 is reduced into during photosynthesis?
What is sugar (C6H12O6)?
The movement of large substances across a membrane or against the concentration gradient.
The enzyme that reduces inorganic carbon with RuBP.
What is rubisco?
The co-enzymes that oxidize organic fuel during cellular respiration.
What are the dehydrogenase and NAD+?
The product from acetyldehyde reduction (see image).
What is ethanol?
The protein complex where ADP and inorganic phosphate are reduced.
What is the ATP synthase.
A type of exergonic reaction where glucose is easily oxidized to make ATP.
What is glycolysis or cellular respiration?
The location of the concentration gradient inside the chloroplast.
What is the lumen?
The protein number on the ETC in cellular respiration where water is made.
What is protein #3?
The pyruvate intermediate that is oxidized to produce ATP during substrate-level phosphorylation.
