200

What gas do animals release from respiration that plants use for photosynthesis?

Carbon dioxide (CO2)

200

What are the three stages (steps) in aerobic cellular respiration?

Glycolysis, Krebs/ Citric acid cycle, electron transport chain (ETC)

200

How many molecules of ATP are produced from fermentation?

TWO molecules of ATP (not a lot)

200

This enzyme uses a proton gradient to produce cell energy

ATP Synthase

300

Cell respiration turns glucose and oxygen into these three products...

CO₂ (carbon Dioxide) H₂O (water) ATP (energy)

300

This sugar is made by plants and is used by both plants and animals for energy

Glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆)

300

This stage of aerobic respiration generates THE MOST ATP for the cell

Electron transport chain (ETC)

300

What type of fermentation occurs in human muscle cells?

Lactic acid fermentation

300

In cell respiration, LOW energy ________ is converted to HIGH energy _________ for the cell. 

ADP , ATP

400

How do yeast contribute to bread dough rising?

Yeast undergo cellular respiration (heterotrophs) and produce CO2 as a waste product which forms bubbles in the dough and causes the dough to expand and rise

400

Why can PLANTS perform BOTH photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Plants have chloroplasts AND mitochondria in their cells!!
