Plants use the green pigment chlorophyll to
absorb sunlight
Photosynthesis produces glucose as a final product. Where do the carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms come from to make glucose as a product?
Carbon and oxygen atoms come from carbon dioxide and hydrogen comes from splitting water.
Can heterotrophs survive without autotrophs?
Heterotrophs cannot survive without autotrophs because they supply heterotrophs with the food and oxygen required for heterotrophs to live.
The first step in releasing the energy of glucose in a cell is known as
Glycolysis
In eukaryotes , the Krebs cycle takes place within the
mitochondrial matrix
Where do the two main parts of photosynthesis occur in the chloroplast
Thylakoid and the Stroma
How do we get our energy from the sun? Directly or indirectly?
indirectly
Cells use the energy available in food to make a final energy rich compound used by cells called?
ATP
The process that releases energy form food in the presence of oxygen?
Aerobic cellular respiration
Because fermentation takes place in the absence of oxygen, it is said to be
anerobic
The light independent reaction is also known as
Calvin Cycle
Write the equation for photosynthesis
6CO2+ 6H2O+sunlight->C6H12O6+6O2
.
Why does the light independent reaction (calvin cycle) depend on the light dependent reactions?
The energy and electrons needed for the Calvin cycle are powered by ATP and NADPH which are produced in the light dependent reaction.
Write the chemical equation of cellular respiration?
C6H12O6+6O2-> 6CO2+ 6H2O+ATP
Most of the time, the process carried out by yeast that causes bread dough to rise is
alcoholic fermentation
Which are the three factors that affect the rate of photosynthesis?
temperature, Carbon dioxide, and light
If I have 54 CO2 molecules how many glucose molecules will be made during photosynthesis?
9 Glucose molecules are made
The diagram shows a model of ATP. How would you revise the diagram to illustrate how ATP provides energy for the cell?
The third phosphate is broken off from the rest of the molecule. Breaking the third phosphate releases energy for the cell.
Where do the three steps of cellular respiration occur?
glycolysis=cytoplasm; krebs cycle=matrix of the mitochondria; electron transport chain= inner membrane of the mitochondria
Which proccess makes the most ATP in aerobic respiration? and How many are made?
Electron Transport Chain and 34 ATP are made
Why is it important that carbon dioxide molecules from the atmosphere enter the Calvin Cycle?
Carbon dioxide must enter so that carbon, and oxygen can be used to help create glucose with the hydrogen from the light dependent reaction.
Explain how matter is conserved from the reactants of photosynthesis to the products of photosynthesis.
When CO2 and H2O enters the the plant, Carbon Hydrogen and Oxygen are used in photynthesis with sunlight to create Glucose and oxygen.
Explain how energy is transferred from the sun to high energy bonds during photosynthesis.
Energy from the sun is stored in the high energy bonds of the glucose molecule during photosynthesis.
Explain the connection between photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
The products from photosynthesis bocome the reactants of cellular respiration. The products of cellular respiration become the reactants of photosythesis. It is a continuous cycle of life.
During heavy exercise, the buildup of lactic acid in muscle cells is a result of ______________________ in _____________________ cells?
a lack of oxygen needed to help create ATP; animal cells
