What is a ribosome?
The main organelle involved in photosynthesis.
What is the Chloroplast?
The main organelle involved in cellular respiration.
What is the mitochondria?
The number of membranes the mitochondria has.
What is 2?
The main goal of step one of cellular respiration.
What is to break down the glucose molecule into two molecules of pyruvate?
The emptiness between the membranes of the mitochondria.
What is the intermembrane space?
A cycle that occurs in photosynthesis.
What is the Calvin Cycle?
A cycle that occurs in cellular respiration.
What is the Krebs Cycle?
The maximum number of ATP that can be made in cellular respiration if there is no oxygen present.
What is 2?
The name for processes that do not require oxygen and that do require oxygen, respectively. (Response must be in the correct order)
What are anaerobic and aerobic?
The jelly-filled inside of a mitochondria.
What is the Matrix?
Other acceptable answers:
What is the Matrix: Reloaded?
What is the Matrix: Revolutions?
What is the Matrix: Resurrections?
The reactants of photosynthesis.
What are CO2 and H2O?
The reactants of cellular respiration.
What are C6H12O6 and O2?
The maximum number of ATP that can be made in cellular respiration if there is oxygen present.
What is 38?
The main goal of step two of cellular respiration, if there is oxygen, and how it is accomplished.
What is to collect as many hydrogens as possible which is accomplished by rearranging the pyruvate molecules over and over again and plucking them off using NAD and FAD molecules.
A gap in the inner membrane that allows hydrogen to come into the mitochondria.
What is the ATP Synthase?
The products of photosynthesis.
What are C6H12O6 and O2?
The products of cellular respiration.
What are CO2 and H2O?
The total number of hydrogens that are extracted from the pyruvate molecules during the Krebs Cycle?
What is 12?
The main goal of step three of cellular respiration, if there is oxygen, and how it is accomplished.
What is to create ATP which is accomplished by pumping the hydrogens held by NADH and FADH2 into the intermembrane space, then allowing them to flow through the ATP Synthase.
The holes in the outer membrane that allow materials to leave and enter the mitochondria.
What are porins?
The hydrogen carrier(s) involved in photosynthesis.
What is NADP(H)?
The hydrogen carriers involved in cellular respiration.
What are NAD(H) and FAD(H2)?
The number of times the pyruvate molecule is rearranged during the Krebs Cycle.
What is 8?
The main goal of step two of cellular respiration, if there is no oxygen, and how it is accomplished.
What is to create two molecules of NAD in order to break down another molecule of glucose which is accomplished by turning pyruvate into either lactic acid or ethanol.
