Energy
What is ATP?
Energy carrying molecule
(adenosine tri phosphate)
What type of organism undergoes photosynthesis
Autotrophs/producers (plants, algae, cyanobacteria)
What is the goal of cell respiration?
Produce ATP as energy for cell functions from food (glucose).
Where does most of the energy on Earth come from?
The sun
BONUS- 2x
How is the water molecule used in the light-dependent reaction?
Splits into Hydrogen and oxygen molecules, H goes to light independent.
What is required for aerobic respiration to happen?
Oxygen
Where is the energy stored in ATP?
In the phosphate bonds
What are the reactants of photosynthesis?
Water and Carbon dioxide (and sunlight)
What is the main product of the calvin cycle?
glucose
Which step of cell respiration produces the most ATP?
ETC/Oxidative phosphorylation
What are the products of alcohol fermentation?
Alcohol, CO2, and 2 ATP
What macromolecule do we use first for energy in cell respiration?
Carbohydrates
Where does the calvin cycle occur
stroma
How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration related?
Opposite reactions-- Products of photosynthesis are reactants of cellular respiration. Products of cellular respiration are reactants of photosynthesis.
BONUS- 2x
Where exactly do the krebs cycle and the ETC occur?
Matrix and inner membrane of mitochondria.
What is the product of lactic acid fermentation and in what kind of cells does it occur in humans?
Lactic acid and muscle cells
What can some organisms use to make their own food without sunlight?
Chemosynthesis
BONUS- 2x
Name the molecule that absorbs sunlight energy and where is it located in the cell?
Chlorophyll and thylakoid membrane
Why do plants undergo cellular respiration if they make chemical energy through photosynthesis?
They need to store the energy, glucose makes 34 ATP
What carries the electrons to the ETC?
NADH (and FADH2)
Which is preferred- Fermentation or aerobic respiration and why?
Aerobic respiration produces more energy.
