100
What type of macromolecule is an enzyme?
Protein!
100
How many phosphates are in ATP?
three
100
Plants are examples of producers or _____________. They get energy from nonliving sources like the sun!
autotrophs
100
True or false - Enzymes are not changed during a chemical reaction and can be used over again.
True!
100
What is Mrs. Penglin's husband's name?
Sunny!
200
What is happening in this enzyme-substrate complex?
Two substrates are bonding to an enzyme's active to form 1 product.
200
In a molecule of ATP, where is the most energy stored?
Between the second and third phosphate. Once the third phosphate is broken off, energy is released!
200
These are organisms that get energy from other living organisms.
heterotroph or consumers
200
All of the following parts make up an ADP molecule EXCEPT...
D - because ADP is adenosine diphosphate, which means it has 2 phosphates not 3.
200
Which of these games includes the phrase “Do not pass go, do not collect $200”?
Monopoly
300
During this type of reaction there is more energy with the products than there is with the reactants.
Endothermic
300
Explain which part of the ATP - ADP cycle is exothermic and which part is endothermic?
Exothermic - when the last phosphate breaks off, energy is released!
Endothermic - when a phosphate and energy (both from food) reattach to ADP to store energy and make ATP.
300
What are four types of consumers?
Herbivores, Carnivores, Omnivores, Detrivores (decomposers)
300
Why aren't the primary consumers the first level of an energy pyramid?
They are not the first level on an energy pyramid because you need to include where they get energy from, the producers! Producers are the base/foundation of an ecosystem.
300
Which animated character says:
"Is mayonnaise an instrument?"
Patrick Star
400
How do enzymes speed up chemical reactions?
By lowering the activation energy
400
What formula would best represent how ATP is made?
ADP + P + Energy (from food) → ATP
400
What type of model specifically shows how the amount of energy flows from one trophic level to another in an ecosystem?
Trophic/Energy pyramid
400
What factor prevents a substrate from binding to the active site by blocking it or "competing" with another molecule?
competitive inhibitor
400
Which marine animal is known for its ability to change color and camouflage itself in its surroundings?
An octopus!
500
What does the Law of Conservation of Energy state?
It states energy can neither be created nor destroyed, only converted from one form of energy to another.
500
Why is this explanation incorrect?
In the ATP - ADP cycle, the second phosphate is broken and releases energy that can be used by the cell. This also results in an ADP molecule and a phosphate, which are recycled and used to create more ATP later on.
This is incorrect because the bond of the THIRD phosphate is broken and only the ADP is recycled, NOT the phosphate.
500
Explain what is the rule of 10 AND what happens to the remaining energy.
Each trophic level gets 10% of the energy from the previous trophic level. The Amount of energy decreases as you move up the levels.The other 90% is used by the organism to grow, reproduce, carry out metabolic processes, or returns to the environment as heat.
500
How does converting ATP to ADP help power the cell?
When you break the bond between the last two phosphates it releases usable energy for the cell to function and carry out metabolic processes. Energy is released, and ATP becomes ADP, which has less stored energy than ATP.

How many films did Sean Connery play James Bond in?
7
