Chance
Electrons from the oxidation of NADH and FADH2 pass from one carrier to the next in the chain
What is the ETC?
The three phases of the Calvin Cycle
The property that determines how restrictive the enzyme is in it's choice of substrate.
What is Substrate Specificity
A substrate that is gradually oxidized to produce carbon dioxide and water
What is glucose?
A form of electromagnetic radiation, which is propagated as a wave but also behaves as particles. Is converted into chemical energy in photosynthesis.
What is light?
ATP + H2O = ADP + Pi + free energy
What is the exergonic reaction of Hydrolysis of ATP?
Factor in enzymes simulated during the pop-bead lab by using "dehydration synthesis" to connect beads where the ability to do so was affected over time.
What is the Denaturing?
An inhibitor that binds at the active site, but no reaction occurs.
What is Competitive Inhibition?
Produces 6 Water molecules, 6 Carbon Dioxide molecules and 34 ATP molecules
What is Cellular Respiration
A pigment found in the organelle chloroplast that's main function is to absorb light
What is Chlorophyll?
What are alpha helixes and pleated sheets?
What is germination
Non-substrate molecules binds a site other than the active site.
What is Allosteric Regulation?
The conditions in which Catabolism of glucose occur.
What are aerobic conditions?
That lack of this organelle is what separates an autotroph from a heterotroph
What is the Chloroplast?
When oxygen is not present, pyruvate molecules undergo this.
What is Fermentation.
Light-absorbing compounds, found in photosynthetic organisms, that work in conjunction with chlorophyll A, one example would be the compounds found in spinach
What are accessory pigments?
When reaction rate of an enzyme levels off because all enzyme molecules are bound to substrate molecules. there is usually more substrate than enzyme present.
What is a Saturated Enzyme?
A chain of reactions occurring in the mitochondria, through which almost all living cells produce energy in aerobic respiration
What is the Citric Acid Cycle?
Absorbs light energy at 680 nm, oxidizes water, and initiates ATP production.
What is Photosystem II?
Movement of ions across a semipermeable barrier from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration
What is Chemiosmosis?
Within Leaf structure (HHMI lab) these are used to transport organic materials produced from the leaf cells to other cells
What are Vascular Bundles?
The 4 factors that can affect enzymatic reaction speed.
What are temperature, pH, enzyme concentration, substrate concentration, and the presence of any inhibitors or activators.
An enzyme present in plants that catalyzes the first step of carbon fixation?
What is RuBisCO
