biochemical cycles
what types of transportation use carbon?
Cars, trains, ships
What are lipids?
Lipids are organic compounds that are made up of fatty acids
What inputs are needed to complete photosynthesis?
Sun, CO2, H2O
What are the outputs of cellular respiration?
ATP and CO2
what are some abiotic factors in the Grassland biome?
Sun, temp.dirt, rocks, landscape
how does organic soulful move through the foodweb>
Rocks that contain sulfur can get damaged through weathering, microbes and plants assimilate it.
The microbes and plants get eaten by other consumers and sulfur moves up the system.
Sulfur is released back into the environment decomposing.
What are the four types of lipids?
Fats, steroids, Waxes, phospholipids
What are the two steps of photosynthesis?
light dependent and light independent
what are the three steps of cellular respiration?
Glycolysis, Krebs cycle, electron transport cycle
How many layers of rainforest are there in the tropical rainforest biome?
4 layers
What is the water cycle and how does it work?
Water Molecules go into the atmosphere from water.
Water cools in the air cools into liquid (condensation)
The droplets gathered become gathered rain/precipitation
what are liquids that repel water called?
Insoluable liquids
What is the difference between light independent and light dependent?
light dependent needs light, and water. outcome is ATP, oxygen and NADH.
light independent doesn't need light, takes place in the stroma. Uses ATP and NADH to build glucose.
Where does the steps of cellular respiration happen?
glycolysis- cytoplasm
krebs cycle/ electron transport cycle- Mitochondria
What are 5 characteristics of the desert biome?
Dry, high temp, wind, sunny, few plants
What is ammonification?
when animo radical groups are transformed into ammonia or ammonium.
-The surgical removal of fat such as fats, phospholipids, and oils?
Liposuction
how does photosynthesis relate in the carbon cycle?
Photosynthesis takes in carbon and release oxygen.
Which step produces the most ATP?
electron transport cycle
What percentage of the world is covered in the Tundra biome?
27% of the worlds surface
Where can you find phosphorous?
Rocks, sediments, water, living organisms
what are the main chemical bonds?
Ionic, conculant, and hydrogen bonds.
How are photosynthesis and cellular respiration related?
The inputs and outputs are flipped, and the end goal produces ATP.
What is the equation for Cellular respiration?
C6H12O6 + 602 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O+ ATP
How many inches of rainfall annually are there in the Savannah?
30-50 inches
