Cell Jeopardy

Organelle Function

100

cells security system, surrounds and protects the cell, controls what enters and exits the cell:

Cell Membrane

200

gel-like substance inside the cell, where cell processes (chemical reactions) occur, 80% water

Cytoplasm

300

tough structure that surrounds and protects plant cells, gives cells shape, made of cellulose:

Cell Wall

400

green organelle, in plant cells, photosynthesis, captures energy from the sun to make glucose

Chloroplast

500

Give me the 3 postulates of the cell theory.

smallest units of life,

all living things have cells,

cells come from other cells

Macromolecules

100

What do we call the building blocks of major macromolecules (in a general sense)

Monomers

200

This polymer of the lipids class stores long term energy in the blood

Triglycerides

300

Name the class of macromolecules that "Cellulose belongs to"

Carbohydrates

400

What is the function of the monomer for nucleic acids

to store genetic information for the purpose of protein synthesis 

500

Provide the central dogma

DNA---->RNA---->Protein

Cell Transport

100

This process allows water molecules to move across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Osmosis

200

n this type of cell transport, molecules move from an area of high concentration to low concentration without requiring energy.

Passive Transport

300

Active Transport moves molecules _________ their concentration gradient, from low to high concentration.

Against;opposite

400

What kind of transport is essential to moving hydrogen atoms from high concentration to low concentration, through the ATP Synthase protein, in the Electron Transport Chain, and in the Light Reactions

Facilitated Diffusion 

500

In facilitated diffusion, these specific proteins aid in transporting molecules across the cell membrane without using energy

Carrier Protein or Channel Protein

Photosynthesis

100

This simple sugar is produced as the main product of photosynthesis

Glucose

200

In addition to sunlight, these two inputs are necessary for photosynthesis to occur.

CO₂ & H₂O

300

This part of the chloroplast is where the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place.

Thylakoid Membrane

400

What is the main goal of the light reactions?

Provide energy for the Dark reactions, converting CO₂ to Glucose

500

NADP⁺ is converted to NADPH as an electron carrier and sent where in the Chloroplast?

The Stroma

Cellular Respiration

100

This is the main energy-carrying molecule produced during cellular respiration.

ATP

200

Provide the 3 steps of Cellular Respiration.

Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle, and the Electron Transport Chain

300

Roughly, between how many ATP are produced during Glycolysis and the Krebs Cycle, combined?

4 ATP, 2 from each reaction.

400

This simple sugar is broken down during the first stage of cellular respiration.

Glucose

500

This molecule is the final electron acceptor at the end of the electron transport chain, combining with electrons and protons to form water.

Oxygen (Oxygen + hydrogen (a proton) + hydrogen (a proton) = H₂O
