Photo, Cellular, or Random?
100

Plants use this process to capture sunlight and make food.

Photosynthesis

100

How does ATP release energy?

ATP breaks off a phosphate bond

100

What organelle does cellular respiration primarily occur in?

Mitochondria

100

What is the simple sugar molecule that is made in photosynthesis?

glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆)

100

What process uses sunlight to make glucose?

Photosynthesis

200

This organelle is the site of photosynthesis

chloroplast

200

These molecules carry high-energy electrons to the ETC in cellular respiration (hint: charged)

NADH and FADH₂

200

Where does glycolysis occur?

The cytoplasm

200

What is the first step in cellular respiration?

Glycolysis

200

What organism can perform both photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Plants

300

What pigment is responsible for capturing light energy?

Chlorophyll

300

This enzyme uses the proton gradient to make ATP in both chloroplasts and mitochondria

ATP synthase

300

What process in cellular respiration generates the most amount of ATP?

Electron transport chain VIA ATP Synthase

300

How much ATP is needed to power glycolysis?

2 ATP

300

Like humans, this type of organism gets energy by consuming another organism

Heterotroph

400

Why do plants need both chloroplasts and mitochondria?

Chloroplasts make glucose (photosynthesis); mitochondria break it down for ATP (respiration).

400

Compare NADPH and NADH. What’s the main difference in where each is used?

NADPH is used in photosynthesis; NADH is used in cellular respiration

400

In glycolysis, 1 glucose molecule breaks down into ... (include quantity for full credit)

2 pyruvate

400

In the Krebs Cycle, carbon leaves as this gas

CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)

400

Based on the following equation explain what process is occurring:

C6H12O6+6O2→6CO2+6H2O+ATP

Cellular Respiration

500

Write the balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis

6CO₂ + 6H₂O + sunlight→ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.

500

What captures electrons at the end of the ETC in cellular respiration? What does it make? (ANSWER BOTH FOR FULL POINTS)

Oxygen, it makes H2O

500

In cellular respiration: which subprocesses undergo aerobic respiration, and which undergo anaerobic respiration?

Aerobic: Krebs Cycle and ETC

Anaerobic: Glycolysis

500

What are the reactants for cellular respiration?

Glucose and Oxygen

500

What is everything that goes into the Calvin cycle? (more than one thing)

CO2, NADPH, ATP
