SCIENCE, ETC.
The ETC produces ______ to ______ ATP.
What is 24 to 26?
The cellular process (metabolic pathway) of breaking down large molecules into smaller ones
What is a catabolic reaction?
A carrot sits in this type of solution and gains mass.
What is hypotonic?
This type of transport does not require a net input of energy.
What is passive transport?
Let's bring some water to the party! If I want the water to be used by the cells, I'd better make sure we have these specialized proteins available.
What are aquaporins?
The proteins of the electron transport chain are located in this part of a eukaryotic cell.
What is the inner mitochondrial membrane?
I just had a birthday party and now my house is a mess. I didn't even notice! I guess the universe tends toward chaos. In the science world we would call it this.
What is entropy?
The inputs of cell respiration are oxygen and glucose. These 3 are the outputs.
What are carbon dioxide, water, and ATP?
These substances, inside the chloroplasts, capture sunlight.
What are pigments?
In order for my enzyme to catalyze a substrate, the substrate must fit into this part of the enzyme.
What is the active site?
The final electron acceptor in the ETC during aerobic respiration
What is oxygen?
Glycolysis happens in this part of the cell.
What is cytoplasm?
My plants produced excess carbohydrates. Now the extra sugar will get stored in this form.
What is starch?
An enzyme works in the stomach, but not in the small intestine. The difference in this is probably why.
What is pH?
There's a bully at this party! This thing is totally blocking the enzyme from doing what it wants to do.
What is a competitive inhibitor?
This chemical process generates the ATP produced in the citric acid cycle.
What is substrate-level phosphorylation?
In most exergonic reactions, before products can be formed, the reactants must first overcome a thermodynamic barrier known as this.
What is activation energy?
The complete oxidation of a molecule of glucose (C6H12O6) in cellular respiration produces about this many ATP.
What is 30-32?
ADP is different than ATP because of this molecule.
What is phosphate?
I want to add a phosphate to my protein. I better find one of these in the crowd!
Kinase
In photosynthesis, the ETC donates its electrons directly to this complex.
What is photosystem I?
Bulk transport of molecules into or out of the cell (via endocytosis and exocytosis) use _______ for transport.
What are specialized vesicles?
Xe- is oxidized. Once oxidation occurs, we have this.
What is X?
Membrane proteins that are attached to the cytoplasm side of the membrane
What are peripheral proteins?
When a GPCR is stimulated, this becomes active (now it's the life of the party!).
What is a G protein?
