Photosynthesis Basics
What are the two main stages of photosynthesis?
What are the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle?
What is the main purpose of cellular respiration?
What is to produce ATP for energy?
Where does glycolysis occur?
What is the cytoplasm?
What organelle is responsible for photosynthesis?
What is the chloroplast?
What gas is released during photosynthesis?
What is oxygen?
What molecule captures light energy for photosynthesis?
What is chlorophyll?
What are the three stages of aerobic cellular respiration?
What are glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain?
What molecule is broken down in glycolysis?
What is glucose?
What does “anaerobic” mean?
What is without oxygen?
What type of fermentation occurs in human muscles during intense exercise?
What is lactic acid fermentation?
What are the three products of the light-dependent reactions?
What are ATP, NADPH, and O₂?
What is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain?
What is oxygen, which forms water?
How does the Krebs cycle contribute to ATP production?
What is by generating NADH & FADH₂, which carry electrons to the electron transport chain?
What is the universal energy molecule used by all living organisms?
What is ATP?
What is the name of the enzyme that helps fix carbon in the Calvin cycle?
What is rubisco?
Why is the Calvin cycle called the “light-independent” reaction?
What is because it does not require light directly, but it depends on ATP and NADPH from the light-dependent stage?
How many ATP molecules are produced in aerobic cellular respiration?
What is around 36-38 ATP?
What is carbon fixation in the Calvin cycle?
What is the incorporation of CO₂ into organic molecules?
What are TWO type of organisms perform both photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
What are plants, algae, and some bacteria?
What is the main function of NADH and FADH₂ in cellular respiration?
What is carrying electrons to the electron transport chain?
In which part of the chloroplast does the Calvin cycle take place?
What is the stroma?
What happens if no oxygen is present after glycolysis?
What is fermentation, which produces either lactic acid or ethanol and CO₂?
What role does ATP synthase play in cellular respiration?
What is using the proton gradient to convert ADP into ATP in the mitochondria?
How does cyanide affect cellular respiration?
What is by blocking the electron transport chain, preventing ATP production?
What would happen to the rate of photosynthesis if carbon dioxide levels decreased significantly?
What is that photosynthesis would slow down or stop?
