Cellular Respiration
Tasha's favorite equation is the oxidation of?
Glucose
Where does photosynthesis occur?
Chloroplast
What does DNA stand for?
Deoxyribonucleic acid
The first phase in the in the cell cycle
Includes G1 S and G2
Interphase
Protein molecule that acts as a catalyst
Enzyme
What occurs in your muscles if you have no oxygen?
Lactic acid fermentation
This pathway takes excited electrons and makes ATP
Light dependent reactions
What are the two steps of protein synthesis?
Transcription and Translation
Cell division occurs once in this process
Mitosis
Use of an enzyme, lowers this type of energy
Activation
How many ATP does a eukaryote produce in aerobic cellular respiration?
36 ATP
Green chlorophylls absorb what portions of the electromagnetic spectrum
Red and Blue
What are the four nitrogenous bases in RNA?
Adenine, Uracil, Guanine, and Cytosine
Process where a cell digests itself inside out
Apoptosis
Two types of inhibition
Negative feedback
Competitive
What are the three metabolic pathways of aerobic cellular respiration?
Glycolysis, Krebs cycle, Electron-Transport System
What happens in the antenna complex?
Light strikes the antenna complex and excites them
What does the enzyme helicase do?
Separate the two strands of DNA
Name the four phases of mitosis (in order)
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
What do we call cellular control to ensure proper order?
Coordination
What is happening in the electron-transport system or proton pump?
Energy-rich electrons are passed from one cytochrome to the next, pumping these hydrogen ions through the membrane, creating a concentration gradient. They move back down through ATPase and make ATP and water.
What is the most abundant enzyme on Earth?
RuBisCo
Ribulose- 1,5-biphosphate carboxylase oxygenase
What are the three steps of translation?
Initiation, elongation, and termination
During this phase, pairs of homologous chromosomes align at the equator
Metaphase I
How does pH affect enzymes?
Hydrogen ions can attach to the exposed side chains and change the shape. Can inhibit or improve performance.
