What do we call the pigment which traps sunlight within the plant cell?
chlorophyll
What is one factor affecting the rate of photosynthesis?
Intensity of light
Amount of water

What is the name of the molecule that provides a cell with energy?
Adesinetriphosphate (ATP)
What is the process by which light energy is converted into usable chemical energy for plant cells?
Photosynthesis
What is the process by when an animal cell breaks down glucose into usable energy?
Cellular respiration
Which organelles perform cellular respiration and photosynthesis within an animal and plant cell?
photosynthesis - chloroplasts
64 percent of the energy created through cellular respiration is lost in the form of what?
Heat
When ATP is utilized in the cell it is converted into what molecule?
ADP
How many molecules of glucose do we get from one photosynthesis reaction?
1
What are the products for cellular respiration?
carbon dioxide
water
What do we call the individual stacks containing pigment within the chloroplasts?
thylakoid
What is the chemical formula for glucose?
C6H12O6
Name 3 forms of energy?
kinetic energy - heat

What are the products of photosynthesis?
oxygen
glucose
What process does the cell have to go through instead of glycolysis due to the absence of oxygen?
Lactic acid fermentation
Where does the light dependent reaction take place within the chloroplasts?
How many molecules of ATP do we get from one cycle of cellular respiration?
36
How do we release energy stored within an ATP molecule?
Which cycle within photosynthesis REQUIRES light to function?
the krebs cycle
Where does the calvin cycle take place within the chloroplast?
stroma
What is one example of an electron carrier that we discussed so far in class?
NADPH
NADP+
NAD+
NADH
What are 3 examples of bioenergetics? AKA...where do we see energy being converted?
photosynthesis
light dependent reaction
calvin cycle (light independent reaction)
cellular respiration
krebs cycle
glycolysis
electron transport chain
What color does chlorophyll REFLECT?
Green or Yellow
How many molecules of ATP do we get from the electron transport chain?
32
Where does glycolysis take place within an animal cell?
cytoplasm
What is 1 way photosynthesis is similar to cellular respiration and 1 way it is different?
Differences:
opposite reactions, products are reactants, and one deposits energy while the other withdraws energy
Similarities:
both are examples of bioenergetics, both provide energy for the cell, both are created via an organelle, both occur in living things, etc.
