Plants use this process to capture sunlight and make food.
Photosynthesis
How does ATP release energy?
ATP breaks off a phosphate bond
What organelle does cellular respiration primarily occur in?
Mitochondria
What is the simple sugar molecule that is made in photosynthesis?
glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆)
What process uses sunlight to make glucose?
Photosynthesis
This organelle is the site of photosynthesis
chloroplast
These molecules carry high-energy electrons to the ETC in cellular respiration (hint: charged)
NADH and FADH₂
Where does glycolysis occur?
The cytoplasm
What is the first step in cellular respiration?
Glycolysis
What organism can perform both photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Plants
What pigment is responsible for capturing light energy?
Chlorophyll
This enzyme uses the proton gradient to make ATP in both chloroplasts and mitochondria
ATP synthase
What process in cellular respiration generates the most amount of ATP?
Electron transport chain VIA ATP Synthase
How much ATP is needed to power glycolysis?
2 ATP
Like humans, this type of organism gets energy by consuming another organism
Heterotroph
Why do plants need both chloroplasts and mitochondria?
Chloroplasts make glucose (photosynthesis); mitochondria break it down for ATP (respiration).
Compare NADPH and NADH. What’s the main difference in where each is used?
NADPH is used in photosynthesis; NADH is used in cellular respiration
In glycolysis, 1 glucose molecule breaks down into ... (include quantity for full credit)
2 pyruvate
In the Krebs Cycle, carbon leaves as this gas
CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)
Based on the following equation explain what process is occurring:
C6H12O6+6O2→6CO2+6H2O+ATP
Cellular Respiration
Write the balanced chemical equation for photosynthesis
6CO₂ + 6H₂O + sunlight→ C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.
What captures electrons at the end of the ETC in cellular respiration? What does it make? (ANSWER BOTH FOR FULL POINTS)
Oxygen, it makes H2O
In cellular respiration: which subprocesses undergo aerobic respiration, and which undergo anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic: Krebs Cycle and ETC
Anaerobic: Glycolysis
What are the reactants for cellular respiration?
Glucose and Oxygen
What is everything that goes into the Calvin cycle? (more than one thing)
CO2, NADPH, ATP
