What molecule is absorbed and broken up by Photosystem II during the light reactions?
H2O, or water
The thick, waxy coating on the surface of a leaf is the
cuticle
Where does the Calvin Cycle occur?
The stroma
The first step in cellular respiration is
glycolysis
What process occurs instead of cellular respiration is there is no oxygen present?
Fermentation
What molecule is created by adding a e- and H+ on the outside of the membrane of the thylakoid at the end of the ETC?
NADPH
The pores that can open and close to allow gas exchange in and out of the leaf are called
stoma/stomata
What are the reactants of the Calvin Cycle? (What goes into it?)
CO2, ATP, NADPH
What molecule is produced after NADH has donated hydrogen and electrons to the ETC?
NAD+
The space INSIDE the inner membrane of the mitochondria is known as the
matrix
Which side of the thylakoid membrane has a higher concentration of H+?
The inside
The fluid inside of a chloroplast is called the
stroma
What are the products of the Calvin Cycle?
C6H12O6 (Glucose), ADP + P, and NADP+
What process is included in both cellular respiration and fermentation?
Glycolysis
FADH2 is created for use in the electron transport chain during which stage of cellular respiration?
Citric Acid/Krebs Cycle
Where do electrons gain energy from light?
In the photosystems
True or False: Chlorophyll is green because it absorbs green light wavelengths
False
What is the goal of the Calvin Cycle?
Carbon fixation
In chemiosmosis inside the mitochondria, does the concentration gradient drive H+ ions INTO or OUT OF the matrix through ATP synthase?
into
During glycolysis, 1 glucose molecule is split into 2 molecules of
pyruvate
List all of the products of the light reactions
Name 1 adaptation a plant could have to living in a very warm, sunny, humid environment
Thin cuticle
Large surface area
What is the enzyme that aids in the Calvin Cycle?
Rubisco
What is the equation for cellular respiration?
(glucose) C6H12O6 + (oxygen) O2 -> (water) H2O + (carbon dioxide) CO2
