What is Photosynthesis?
What is The process used by plants where the energy of sunlight is used to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen glucose.
What is Cellular Respiration?
What is an aerobic process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food.
Where do Light Dependent reactions take place?
What is the Thylakoids
What does sunlight do in the first part of Photosynthesis?
What is Sunlight excites the electrons in Photosystems II.
What is the name of the step in which the electron chain occurs?
What is oxidative phosphorylation.
What are the 2 processes of Photosynthesis?
What is Light Dependent Reactions and Light Independent Reactions (Calvin Cycle)
What are the 3 stages of Cellular Respiration?
What is Glycolysis, Kreb's Cycle and the Electron Transport Chain.
Where does the Calvin Cycle take place?
What is the Stroma.
In Phase 1 of the Calvin Cycle, what does CO2 combine with to form 3PG?
What is ribulose bisphosphate (RuBP)?
What 3 things affect the rate of Photosynthesis?
What is temperature, availability of water and the light intensity.
What occurs in Cellular Respiration if the conditions are anaerobic?
What is Fermentation
Do the Light Dependent Reactions and the Calvin Cycle both require light energy to perform? Explain.
What is No, only the Light Dependent Reactions require light, but the Calvin Cycle requires the products produced from the Light Dependent Reactions.
In phase 2 of the calvin cycle, ATP combines with 3PG to form what?
What is 1,3 BGP
What are the start and end products of Photosynthesis?
What is The start products of Photosynthesis are Light energy, Carbon Dioxide and Water. The end products of Photosynthesis are Oxygen and Glucose.
What are the 2 types of Fermentation and what do they do?
What is 1. Alcoholic Fermentation - Yeasts use this process to form ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide as the waste products. 2. Lactic Acid Fermentation - This occurs in bacteria and muscles when your body runs out of oxygen your muscles make ATP by fermentation and glycolysis.
Which of these 2 processes occurs first?
What is The Light Dependent Reactions occur first, and its products are used in the Calvin Cycle.
During Phase 2 of the Calvin Cycle, NADPH reduces 1,3 BPG to what?
What is G3P?
What is the equation for Photosynthesis?
What is 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
The arrow in the equation represents the light energy that is required for photosynthesis to take place.
What is the equation for Cellular Respiration?
What is C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy
What are the end products of the Light Dependent Reactions?
What is ATP, NADPH, and Oxygen.
What is the primary advantage of C4 plants?
