Super Easy Stuff
Both plant and animal cells carry out the final stages of cellular respiration in the ________________.
Michondria
What chemical products are produced by humans during cellular respiration?
CO2 and H2O
When do we say a molecule is being reduced?
When it has gained one or more electrons
This organelle is not part of the endomembrane system but breakdowns H2O2 thanks to an enzyme. The name of this organelle is_____ and the enzyme is ______.
Peroxisome and catalase
She's of Moroccan descent?
Heba
What are the two laws of thermodynamics?
1) Energy can be transferred and transformed, but it cannot be created or destroyed
2) Energy conversions increase the entropy (disorder) of the universe
Name the three stages of Cellular respiration
Glycolysis, Citric acid cycle/ Krebs cycle and Oxidative Phosphorylation
What happens to glucose in glycolysis?
glucose is split in two molecules of pyruvate
What is aquaporins? Where would you expect to find these structures?
Aquaporins are water transport channels that allow for very rapid diffusion of water through a cell membrane. They are found in cells that have high water-transport needs, such as blood cells, kidney cells, and plant cells
This person has 3 consonants and 1 vowel in their name
Kann
What is the basic unit of life?
The cell, duh!
This step in photosynthesis is also called dark reactions or light-independent reactions
The Calvin Cycle
Oxidative phosphorylation has two parts: 1)_______ and 2) ________
1) The electron transport chain and 2) Chemiosmosis
True or false: After glycolysis, pyruvate molecules enter the Krebs cycle
Nah, false. It's pyruvic acid that enters the Krebs cycle
His super power is to learn multiple languages. This young lad already knows English, Spanish, and French and is currently learning another ( forgot what it was, my bad)
Emilio
Name two co-enzymes that play a crucial role in cellular respiration
NADH and FADH2
When is sugar produced in photosynthesis?
Sugar is not made until the Calvin cycle
What do mitochondria and chloroplast have in common and how did they evolved?
DNA and ribosomes that are similar to prokaryotes' / endosymbiosis
What is Chemiosmosis?
When the potential energy created by H+ concentration gradient is used by ATP synthases to make ATP
She is left handed and she has five siblings and she was in Canada for a wedding two weeks ago
Priyaaaaaaaaaa
What is the balanced chemical formula of cellular respiration?
C6H12O6 + 6 CO2 --> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy (ATP)
What is the anaerobic stage in cellular respiration?
Glycolysis
What is a form of kinetic energy associated with the random movement of atoms or molecules.
Heat
How do the cristae of the mitochondrion help in cellular respiration?
The folds ( a.k.a cristae) increase the surface area for more ATP production
the second syllable in this person's name rhymes with "boy" and "coy"
