Photosynthesis Basics
This organelle is where photosynthesis takes place.
Chloroplast
This stage occurs in the thylakoids and uses sunlight and water.
Light-Dependent Reactions
ATP stands for this.
Adenosine Triphosphate
This process converts glucose into ATP.
cellular respiration
Glycolysis occurs in the __________ and produces _____ATP molecules.
Cytoplasm; 2
This pigment absorbs light energy for photosynthesis.
chlorophyll
This stage occurs in the stroma and makes glucose.
Calvin Cycle
ATP is made of ribose, 3 phosphates, and _____________.
Adenine
The reactants of cellular respiration.
glucose and oxygen
This stage occurs in the mitochondrial matrix and produces 2 ATP.
Krebs Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle)
The main energy-storing molecule produced during photosynthesis.
glucose
The two energy carriers produced in the Light-Dependent Reactions.
ATP and NADPH
Energy is released when this bond in ATP is broken.
the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate
What are the 3 steps of cellular respiration in sequential order?
1. Glycolysis
2. Krebs Cycle
3. Electron Transport Chain
This stage occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane and produces up to 34 ATP.
Electron Transport Chain
In photosynthesis, carbon dioxide and water are rearranged to produce this gas as a byproduct.
Oxygen
The Light-Dependent Reactions split this molecule to release oxygen.
Water
What is the process called when a phosphate is added to an ADP molecule?
Phosphorylation
The balanced equation for cellular respiration. Run up and write it on the board.
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O
Glycolysis
What is the balanced equation of photosynthesis? Run up to the front of the room and write it on the board.
6CO₂ + 6H₂O + Light Energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
The Calvin Cycle uses CO₂ and these molecules to build glucose.
ATP and NADPH
Name a cellular process that we learned about this unit that does not require ATP to occur. Hint: it happens passively.
(Your answer cannot contain any of the words used in this prompt)
Diffusion
In a closed system, how many ATP molecules does one molecule of glucose generate in yeast?
2 ATP
If there was a mutation that prevents pyruvate from entering the mitochondria, which is the only stages of cellular respiration that would be unaffected... and why?
1. Glycolysis
2. It occurs in the cytoplasm and creates pyruvate
