Cell Respiration
The desired product of Cell Respiration.
What is ATP?
The organelle in charge of Photosynthesis.
What are chloroplasts?
The fatty bulk of the Cell Membrane, made up of a hydrophilic head and hydrophobic tail.
What is the Phospholipid Bilayer?
The directional movement of Passive Transport (_____ to _____)
What is high concentration to low concentration?
The organelle in charge of Cell Respiration.
What are mitochondria?
*Daily Double*
The chemical formula for Cell Respiration.
C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O
The energy source plants use for Photosynthesis.
What is sunlight?
These structures actively transport materials into the cell.
What are Protein Pumps?
The directional movement of Active Transport (_____ to _____)
What is low concentration to high concentration?
The organelle in charge of separating the inside of a cell from the outside.
What is the Cell Membrane?
The first step of Cell Respiration, where glucose is split in half.
What is Glycolysis?
*Daily Double*
The chemical formula for Photosynthesis.
6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2
This structure allows larger molecules like glucose to passively diffuse into the cell.
What are Channels?
A type of Passive Transport: When particles in an area spread out from high concentration to reach equilibrium
What is diffusion?
What are Ribosomes?
The second step of Cell Respiration. Pyruvate is broken down and combines with Oxygen, releasing as CO2 waste.
What is the Krebs Cycle?
The goal of Photosynthesis.
What is the production of glucose as an energy source?
Cell receptors that protrude from the surface of the membrane.
What are carbohydrates?
A type of Passive Transport: Water diffusing across a semi-permeable membrane.
What is Osmosis?
The central organelle in charge of DNA storage and cell coordination.
What is the Nucleus?
The third step of Cell Respiration, where Hydrogen is separated from NADH and FADH2 to produce ATP.
What is the Electron Transport Chain?
The category of organisms that can perform Photosynthesis.
What are autotrophs?
The binding agent that keeps the Cell Membrane together and fluid.
What is Cholesterol?
A type of Passive Transport: The assisted diffusion of larger molecules, such as by using a channel.
What is Facilitated Diffusion?
The storage organelle, acts as an empty pocket in the cytoplasm.
What are vacuoles?
