Photosynthesis
The organelle of the plant does photosynthesis primarily occur
Chloroplast
What is the main product of cellular respiration?
ATP/energy
What is a food web?
A diagram that shows how energy and nutrients flow through an ecosystem by illustrating the feeding relationships among organisms
What is the function of the cell membrane?
What are enzymes?
biological Catalysts that speed up chemical reactions
What are the products during photosynthesis
glucose and oxygen
What are the products of cellular respiration
carbon dioxide + water + ATP (energy)
What is mutualism? Give an example.
A type of symbiotic relationship is one in which both species benefit, such as bees and flowering plants.
What is the difference between a prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell?
Eukaryotic cells have a nucleus and prokaryotic cells do not
What is the term for when enzymes have broken down?
Denatured
what are the reactants of photosynthesis
sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide
what are the reactants of cellular respiration
oxygen + water + glucose
What would happen to a food web and ecosystem if a top predator were removed?
The population of prey species may increase, leading to overgrazing or depletion of producers, ultimately destabilizing the ecosystem.
What is the process of protein synthesis that occurs in eukaryotic cells?
transcription and translation
What is the active site of an enzyme?
the region where substrate molecules bind to the enzyme
What organelles do plants have that allow them to go through photosynthesis and cellular respiration
chloroplasts and mitochondria
what organelle is responsible for the process of cellular respiration?
mitochondria
What is parasitism? Provide an example.
A relationship where one organism benefits at the expense of another, such as ticks feeding on mammals.
How do eukaryotic cells reproduce?
mitosis and the cell cycle
How can temperature affect enzyme activity?
high temperatures can denature enzymes, while low temperatures slow down the reaction
what is the overall equation for photosynthesis
carbon dioxide co2 + light energy + h2O water --> oxygen + glucose c6h12o6
What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
aerobic requires oxygen, while anaerobic does not (fermentation)
Producers: plants, bacteria that go through photosynthesis
Primary consumers are herbivores that eat producers
Secondary consumers: eat primary consumers
What are the phases of the cell cycle?
G1, S, G2, and Mitosis
What factors can affect enzyme activity?
temperature, pH, and substrate concentration?
