More of Cellular Respiration
100
The process by which autotrophs, such as algae and plants, trap energy from sunlight with chlorophyll and use this energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into simple sugars
What is Photosynthesis?
100
These are a series of proteins embedded in a membrane along which energized electrons are transported; as electrons are passed from molecule to molecule, energy is released? (analogy used with bucket example)
What is the Electron Transport Chain?
100
These are a series of reactions during the light independent phase of photosynthesis in which simple sugars are formed from carbon dioxide using ATP and hydrogen from the light-dependent reactions.
What is the Calvin Cycle?
100
This nucleotide provides energy for the cell so the cell can live and we can live!
What is ATP?
100
This happens w/out oxygen and creates 2 ATP molecules.
What is anaerobic respiration?
200
This is the phase of photosynthesis where light energy is converted to chemical energy in the form of ATP; results in the splitting of water and the release of oxygen.
What are Light Dependent Reactions?
200
These are produced at the end of light-dependent reactions during photosynthesis.
What are NADPH and ATP?
200
The light independent reaction happens in this part of the chloroplast.
What is the stroma?
200
These two chemical equations in cellular respiration are switched. They release and absorb this type of energy.
What is the breakdown and synthesis of ATP?
200
This is the process in which sugars are converted into cellular energy and produce ethanol and CO2 as metabolic waste products.
What is alcoholic fermentation?
300
What is chemical formula for photosynthesis?
6CO2 + 6H20 yields C6H12O6+602
300
Light dependent reactions depend on this for photosynthesis to occur.
What is the Sun?
300
This is the end product of the 2nd phase of photosynthesis.
What is glucose?
300
This organelle is the main site of cellular respiration in the cell.
What is the mitochondria?
300
This occurs with O2 and creates 38 ATP molecules of energy.
What is anaerobic respiration?
400
This is the phase of photosynthesis where energy from light-dependent reactions is used to produce glucose and additional ATP molecules.
What are Light Independent Reactions?
400
This is where light dependent reactions occur in the chloroplast.
What is the thylakoid membrane?
400
These two products are used from the light dependent reactions to help host the Calvin Cycle.
What is NADPH and ATP?
400
This is the opposite of photosynthesis.
What is cellular respiration?
400
This is pretty much the same as alcoholic fermentation but the product is lactate.
What is lactic acid fermentation?
500
These are molecules that absorb specific wavelengths of sunlight and what are light-absorbing pigment in plants and some protists that is required for photosynthesis; absorbs most wavelengths of light except green.
What is pigment and chlorophyll?
500
Give the real life example of using light dependent reactions from the worksheet last week.
What is solar power? What are solar powered lights used in driveways? What is solar power that is used for electricity?
500
This is the organelle where light independent reactions occur.
What is the chloroplast?
500
Thirty-eight ATP are produced during this process.
What energy is produced during cellular respiration?
500
Glycolysis, Citric Acid Cycle, and the Electron Transport Chain
What are the three stages of cellular respiration?
