Photosynthesis
What goes into photosynthesis?
CO₂,+H₂O+Sunlight
What goes into cellular respiration?
C₆H₁₂O₆(Glucose)+O₂
What is anaerobic respiration and how much ATP is produced?
The producing of energy without using oxygen, 2 ATP molecules
Autotrophs - organisms that create their own food
Heterotrophs - organisms that consume other organisms to gain glucose
What does photosynthesis produce?
C₆H₁₂O₆(Glucose)+O₂
What does cellular respiration produce?
CO₂+H₂O+ATP(energy)
What are the two types of fermentation?
Lactic Acid Fermentation & Alcohol Fermentation
What are the green pigments in plants?
Chlorophyll
Where does photosynthesis take place?
The chloroplast
Where does cellular respiration take place?
The mitochondria
What happens when lactic acid builds up in muscle cells?
There is a burning feeling and muscle fatigue/soreness
Why does chlorophyll appear green?
It reflects green light and absorbs the other lights
What are the two stages of photosynthesis?
Light Reactions and Dark Reactions
What are the three stages of cellular respiration and do they require oxygen?
Glycolysis - cytoplasm, no
Citric Acid Cycle - matrix of the mitochondria, yes
Electron Chain Reaction - cristae of the mitochondria, yes
What is lactic acid fermentation used by other than muscle cells?
Bacteria, to create foods like cheese and yogurt
Why are leaves not green in fall?
Chlorophyll breaks down and carotenoids become the main pigment, carotenoids reflect lights like yellow or orange or red, and absorb the other lights
Where do the two stages of photosynthesis occur and what do they create?
Light Reactions - Thylakoid, Converts light into ATP
Dark Reactions - Stroma, Creates glucose
36 molecules
What is alcohol fermentation used for?
Baking, wine-making, beer brewing, etc.
What are the two kinds of respiration?
Aerobic Respiration & Anaerobic Respiration
