Photosynthesis
These are the three major steps/processes that occur in photosynthesis.
1A. Light dependent reactions
1B. Pigment Regeneration
2. Calvin Cycle
Glucose, a necessary molecule in cellular respiration, is formed from these precursor molecules which are formed during the Calvin Cycle.
Glyceraldehyde (G3P)
These are the two classes of cells (based on how new cells are made).
1. Somatic Cells (non-reproductive body cells)
2. Gametes (reproductive cells)
This Austrian monk hybridized and observed genetic variation in pea plants, providing major insight into dominant/recessive inheritance.
Gregor Mendel
This limitation of science is why creationism and intelligent design cannot be scientifically evaluated or validated.
Scientific Method is limited to what can be perceived by the human senses.
During the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis, which two proteins contain an antenna complex containing chlorophyll pigments?
Photosystem II and Photosystem I
These are the four major steps of aerobic respiration, in order.
1. Glycolysis
2. Pyruvate Oxidation
3. Krebs/Citric Acid Cycle
4. Electron Transport Chain
These are the three main stages of the cell cycle in order.
1. Interphase (preparation phase)
2. Mitosis (nuclear division)
3. Cytokinesis (division of the cytoplasm)
This nucleic acid provides the codons from which proteins are encoded.
mRNA/ messenger RNA
This is the most important defining characteristic of scientists.
curiosity
These two unique proteins are able to move across the thylakoid membrane during the light-dependent reactions.
Plastoquinone and Plastocyanin
Amount of ATP produced during...
1. Glycolysis ____
2. Pyruvate Oxidation _____
3. Krebs/Citric Acid Cycle _____
4. ETC _____
1. Glycolysis: 2 ATP
2. Pyruvate Oxidation: 0 ATP
3. Krebs/Citric Acid Cycle: 2 ATP
4. ETC: 25 ATP
(29 TOTAL ATP)
These are the four major phases of mitosis (in order).
1. Prophase
2. Metaphase
3. Anaphase
4. Telophase
These are the two major steps in protein synthesis.
1. Transcription
2. Translation
This is the difference between evolution and mutation.
Evolution: genetic change in a population
Mutation: genetic change in an individualProtons are pumped into the lumen of the thylakoid at the cytochrome complex, causing a buildup of pressure that funnels ATP through this membrane protein.
ATP Synthase
This is the molecular product of anaerobic respiration in mammals (humans).
Lactate / Lactic Acid
During this phase of mitosis, spindle fibers contract, dividing the replicated genetic information. Under a microscope, arms of chromosomes are seen in sideways "V" shapes (--< >--)
Anaphase
This is the name for the location of a gene on a chromosome.
locus
This scientist independently discovered the same principles for evolution by natural selection as Charles Darwin a year before "On the Origin of Species..." was published.
Alfred Russell Wallace
This is the name of the enzyme that catalyzes the attachment of CO2 to Ribulose Biphosphate (RuBP) during the Calvin Cycle.
Rubisco
This step occurs in all types of cellular respiration (aerobic and anaerobic).
Glycolysis
This is the ultimate result of meiosis. (How many cells produced? Which type? Each contain ___ chromosomes.)
4 gametes (haploid cells) are produced, containing 23 chromosomes each.
This type of inheritance is seen only in females, and explains how a heterozygote for a trait may sometime express a recessive trait.
Barr Bodies
This important theory by Charles Darwin explains that a group of species may diverge enough from their ancestors to become a different species through adaptation to a changed environment.
