Photosynthesis
The ultimate source of energy for life on earth.
What is the sun?
The purpose of celllular respiration.
What is to make ATP? or What is to gradually break down glucose to make ATP?
This reactant for photosynthesis enters the plant through its roots.
What is water?
The energy molecule that can do cell work.
What is ATP?
The organelle where the Krebs Cycle and the ETC in cellular respiration takes place.
What is the mitochondrion?
The two processes in photosynthesis.
What are the light dependent reaction and the Calvin Cycle?
This is the first step in respiration. It literally means to "sugar breaking."
What is glycolysis?
This product of cellular respiration is formed when 2 electrons join oxygen at the end of the ETC.
What is H2O (water)?
The three parts of an ATP molecule.
What are phosphate, sugar, and nitrogen base?
The part of the chloroplast where the LDR takes place.
What is the thylakoid membrane?
These two things are made in the LDR and used in the Calvin Cycle. They are NOT part of the photosynthesis equation.
What are NADPH and ATP?
This step is responsible for turning two pyruvates into two acetyl CoA.
What is pryruvate conversion?
The products of photosynthesis.
What is glucose and oxygen?
The enzyme that makes ATP in the ETC.
The stage of cellular respiration that makes the MOST ATP.
What is the electron transport chain (ETC)?
The organelle in which photosynthesis takes place.
What is the chloroplast?
These are the two electron carriers in cellular respiration.
What are NADH and FADH2?
The molecule that splits that produces the oxygen we breathe.
What is water?
The molecule that diffuses through the ATP synthase to make ATP out of ADP and a phosophate.
What is H+ (hydrogen)?
Glucose is made in this phase of photosynthesis.
What is the Calvin Cycle?
Electrons are located here at the end of the light dependent reaction.
What is NADPH?
This is why we need oxygen for cellular respiration.
What is to take electrons off of the electron transport chain?
The molecule that holds electrons at the very beginning of cellular respiration.
What is glucose?
The part of an ATP molecule that holds the energy.
What are phosphates?
This is the location of the Krebs Cycle inside the mitochondrion.
What is the matrix?
