What is the equation for cellular respiration?
C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
What is the site that is not the active site called?
The Allosteric site
What are cells?
Basic units of life, smallest structure capable of performing all the functions necessary for life
Kinetic energy associated with random motion of molecules
Heat
What is the equation for photosynthesis?
6CO2 + 6H2O + solar energy= C6H12O6 + 6O2
Aerobic vs. Anaerobic
Aerobic requires oxygen. Anaerobic does not require oxygen
What speeds up chemical reactions without being affected by the reaction?
Enzymes
What does cell theory state?
Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be changed from one form to another
What reactions occur when the sun is out?
Light reactions
What are the final products of the citric acid cycle?
ATP, NADH, FADH2, and CO2
RNA molecules that act as an enzyme and can catalyze chemical reactions
Ribozymes
Prokaryotic vs Eukaryotic cells
Eukaryotic cells have membrane-bound organelles and a nucleus
What is the sum of all chemical reaction in a cell?
Metabolism
Which Photosystem occurs first I or II?
Photosystem II
What is the net yield of glycolysis?
2 ATP and 2 NADH
the model where the change in the shape of an enzyme active site enhances the fit between the active site and substrate
Plant vs Animal cells
Animal cells do not have a cell wall or chloroplasts but do have centrioles. Plant cells have a cell wall, chloroplasts, and do not have centrioles.
What is Free energy?
