ATP
What does the ATP molecule store for the cell?
Chemical Energy
What Organelle does photosynthesis take place in?
The chloroplast
Which stage of photosynthesis captures light energy?
Light dependent
What organelle does Cellular Respiration take place in? (Specifically aerobic respiration)
Mitochondria
What are the 3 stages of aerobic respiration?
Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle, ETC
How is energy released from ATP?
the bonds between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate group are broken
What is the primary pigment in plant cells that captures light energy for photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll
Explain how Oxygen gas is created during photosynthesis
The bonds in a water molecule are broken. The hydrogen is kept, and the oxygen is released as a waste product.
What products are created during cellular respiration? (hint - there is 2, technically 3)
Carbon Dioxide, Water, and ATP
What are the 2 stages of Anaerobic respiration?
Glycolysis, then Lactic Acid Fermentation or Alcohol Fermentation
How much ATP does Lactic Acid Fermentation create?
2 ATP
What products are created during photosynthesis? (hint - there is 2)
Oxygen and Glucose
What gas is needed to create glucose during the light independent stage?
carbon dioxide
What are the reactants needed to power Cellular Respiration? (hint - there is 2)
Oxygen, Glucose
What important molecule is made during glycolysis that is needed for the other stages of cellular respiration?
Pyruvate
How much ATP does the Electron Transport Chain create?
34 ATP
What are the reactants needed to power photosynthesis? (hint - there is 3)
Sunlight, Carbon Dioxide, Water
What is the difference between Aerobic and Anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic = has oxygen available
Anaerobic = Does not have oxygen available
Does Aerobic or Anaerobic respiration create the most ATP?
Aerobic Respiration (~36 ATP)
What is the purpose of photosynthesis?
To create food for the plant in the form of a sugar molecule - Glucose (C6H12O6)
What is the purpose of Cellular Respiration?
To convert glucose into usable chemical energy (ATP)
