Photosynthesis
These membranes in chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and other pigments that can absorb the solar energy that drives photosynthesis.
What are thylakoid membranes?
This type of respiration requires oxygen.
What are aerobic respiration?
In lab, we tested this simple organism's ability to conduct alcohol fermintation.
What is yeast?
This phases sees the chromosomes pulled apart and transported to opposite ends of the cell.
What is anaphase?
When gametes fuse to form a diploid zygote.
What is meiosis?
Chemicals that absorb certain wavelengths of light.
What are pigments?
This is formed when a pyruvate is converted by a coenzyme (A).
What is a carbon acetyl group?
This step is the first one in both fermentation AND cellular respiration.
What is glycolysis?
This phase is the final phase of mitosis where the chromosomes have made it to the opposite ends of the cell and reform two nuclei.
What is telophase?
The natural production of clone organisms.
What is mitosis?
This method of producing ATP is tied to the establishment of an H+ gradient.
What is chemiosmosis?
This is another term for the Citric Acid Cycle.
What is the Kreb's Cycle?
This fermentation produce causes pH changes in the body as well as muscle fatigue.
What is lactate?
This is the structure the attachment point for spindle fibers to chromosomes.
What are centromeres?
This type of cellular reproduction naturally introduces genetic variability through independent assortment and crossing over.
What is meiosis?
This gas is "fixed" by being incorporated into a carbohydrate.
What is CO2?
There is some loss of energy during cellular respiration in the form of this.
What is heat?
The general efficiency of fermentation.
What is 2%?
While not a part of mitosis, it is the phase that the cell spends most of its time in.
What is interphase?
This type of cellular reproduction can be hindered by mistakes in replication resulting in diseased, faulty, or cancerous cells.
What is both mitosis and meiosis?
These compounds that are reduced through the Calvin Cycle can be converted to many other molecules like glucose phosphate, fructose, and starch.
What are G3Ps (or glyceraldehyde-3-phosphates)?
The Citric Cycle turns this many times, equal to the number of pyruvates that enter the mitochondria from glycolosis.
What is twice?
The number of kilocalories produced from fermentation.
What is 14 - 15 kcal?
This is the term for programmed cell death.
What is apoptosis?
This form of cellular reproduction can be conducted outside of a body in an artificial lab setting to grow tissue for surgeries.
