Biology 20 – Unit C

Light Dependent

100

This is the source of electrons for the light-dependent reactions

Water

200

This is the term for a cluster of chlorophyll molecules, found in the thylakoid membrane.

Photosystem

300

This is the substance produced at the end of the second electron transport chain

NADPH

400

The energy released by electrons in the first electron transport chain is used to create this molecule

ATP

500

This is the process of splitting water into 2H⁺, ½ O₂, and 2 e-

Photolysis

Anatomy

100

This is the organelle in a plant cell where photosynthesis takes place

Chloroplast

200

This is where the Light-Dependent Reactions occur in the chloroplast

Thylakoid Membrane

300

This is where the Light-Independent reactions take place in the chloroplast

Stroma

400

This is the area within a mitochondrion in which the majority of the aerobic cellular respiration processes occur

Mitochondrial Matrix

500

This is where glycolysis and fermentation take place

Cytoplasm

Light Independent

100

One turn of this produces a molecule of PGAL

Calvin-Benson Cycle

200

The regeneration of this molecule ensures the continued cycling of the Calvin-Benson Cycle

RuBP

300

Two of these molecules are needed to produce one molecule of glucose

PGAL

400

The reduction phase of the Calvin cycle involves the addition of these two high energy molecules

ATP and NADPH

500

This is the number of times the Calvin- Benson cycle needs to turn to produce 1 molecule of glucose.

6 Turns

Aerobic Cellular Respiration

100

A reaction where a molecule gains electrons from another molecule

Reduction

200

This is the net ATP and NADH produced from one molecule of glucose during glycolysis

2 ATP and 2 NADH

300

During pyruvate oxidation, 2 of this waste molecule is released

CO₂

400

An NADH molecule results in ___ ATP.

3

500

Theoretically, aerobic cellular respiration produces this number of ATP from one molecule of glucose in humans

36

Anaerobic Cellular Respiration

100

This is the first process of anaerobic cellular respiration

Glycolysis

200

This is the specific name for the anaerobic respiration that can take place in yeast.

Alcoholic Fermentation

300

The organism performing fermentation is trying to regenerate this molecule

NAD⁺

400

This results from the fermentation of milk sugars

Lactic Acid

500

This is the net ATP produced through anaerobic cellular respiration
