Processes
The process of photosynthesis transforms light energy into what kind of energy?
Mandatory Generosity:
Chemical
What are the reactants (ingredients) in photosynthesis?
Carbon Dioxide and Water
What are the reactants (ingredients) in cellular respiration?
Oxygen and Glucose
How do your cells make energy from the sugar that you eat?
Cellular Respiration
What does an enzyme do to the activation energy required for a chemical reaction?
It lowers it.
What is the source of energy that drives photosynthesis?
Sunlight
What are the products of photosynthesis?
Glucose and Oxygen
What are the products of Cellular Respiration?
Carbon Dioxide, Water, and ATP
One plant experiences partial shade while another experiences full sunlight. The one in the shade grows 2 feet tall and the one in full sunlight grows 3 feet tall. Why is this?
The one in full sunlight goes through more photosynthesis, producing more glucose, and allowing it to grow taller.
What are three structures a plant cell has, that an animal cell doesn't?
Cell Wall, Central Vacuole, and Chloroplast
What is the formula for Cellular Respiration?
6O2 + C6H12O6 -------> 6H2O + CO2 + ATP
Trade Request:
What molecule is broken in the electron transport chain and where does it go?
O2 is a waste product and Hydrogen moves to the Calvin Cylce
What organelle is the site of cellular respiration?
The mitochondria
Double Jeopardy:
How does higher exercise intensity affect the production of CO2?
The higher the intensity, the higher the output.
All or Nothing:
What cell organelle regulates materials coming in and out of the cell?
Cell Membrane
What is the chemical equation of Photosynthesis?
6CO2 + 6H2O------>C6H12O6 + 6O2
The Calvin Cycle produces what molecule?
Glucose
Tax Man:
Yeast, glucose, and water when mixed experience what type of respiration and what gas is given off as a result?
anaerobic respiration and CO2
Someone is poisoned with a substance that destroys the cells mitochondria. What process is disrupted?
Cellular Respiration
Trade Request:
Name monomers of each macromolecule and at least one example of a polymer for each.
Carbs-Monosaccharides (Starch,Glycogen)
Lipids-Fatty Acids and Glycerol (Fats, Oils, and Waxes)
Protein-Amino Acids (Enzymes, Insulin, Hemoglobin)
Nucleic Acids-Nucleotides (DNA and RNA)
Double Jeopardy:
Glucose is composed of what three elements?
Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen
Explain what happens to the energy process in plants as day changes to night.
When sunlight is no longer available plants convert from photosynthesis to cellular respiration, releasing products like CO2.
Explain how anaerobic respiration differs from aerobic in terms of energy production.
Anaerobic does not use oxygen and produces far less atp. It makes 2 as compared to aerobic with 36.
When observing a pond, you notice bubbles rising from underwater plants. Why does this happen and what do those bubbles contain?
The plants are undergoing photosynthesis and are giving off oxygen.
What is the function of the RER and Golgi Body?
Synthesizes Proteins, Processes Proteins
