cellular respiration breaks down nutrient molecules produced by photosynthesizers and produces ______.
ATP
All life on Earth depends on ____.
solar energy
which has a product of oxygen?
Photosynthesis
Photosynthesis takes place in the roots of the plant.
False - it is in the leaves.
Which is a process in which oxygen is available? Aerobic or Anaerobic?
What is extracted from glucose to make ATP?
energy
Photosynthesizers produce ______.
food energy
which one contains the Calvin Cycle?
Photosynthesis
Photosynthesis is a process that breaks down nutrient molecules produced by photosynthesizers and produces ATP.
False - this is cellular respiration.
When does fermentation occur?
When oxygen is not available to the cell.
What happens if oxygen is not available to the cell?
fermentation occurs in the cytoplasm
Name the reactants and products of photosynthesis.
reactants: solar energy, oxygen water.
products: carbon dioxide and glucose
which is not used in plants and bacteria?
Cellular respiration
When chlorophyll absorbs solar energy, it energizes electrons.
True
What is a pivotal metabolite in cellular respiration?
pyruvate
What produces lactic acid?
Lactic acid fermentation carried out by certain bacteria and fungi
Where does photosystem 2 receive its electrons?
from the splitting of water
Which process is aerobic?
Cellular respiration
Lactate and Alcohol are toxic to cells, thus causing a disadvantage of fermentation.
True
Why is chlorophyll green?
Chlorophyll is green because it absorbs much of the reds and blues of white light and reflects green light.
Cellular Respiration is the complete breakdown of glucose to ___ and ___.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O)
Why is water in the photosynthesis equation?
it provides free electrons
Which process produces ATP?
both
: Electron transport chain pumps H+ into the matrix of the mitochondria.
False - Electron transport chain pumps H+ into thylakoids.
What does the citric acid cycle produce?
The citric acid cycle produces 4 CO2, 2 ATP, 6 NADH, and 2 FADH2 per glucose molecule
