In a molecule of ATP, where is the most energy stored?

Between the second and third phosphate. Once the third phosphate is broken off, energy is released!

Which gas is absorbed by plants during photosynthesis and what gas is released?

Absorbed - Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

Released - Oxygen (O2)

(1) What molecule serves as the primary fuel for cellular respiration, and (2) which gas is essential for at least two cellular respiration steps?

(1) Glucose (C6H12O6)

(2) Oxygen (O2)

Write down the "formula" that would best represent how you make ATP?

ADP + P → ATP

or

ADP + P + Energy → ATP

(1) What organelle does photosynthesis take place in? 

(2) What is the specific location for the light dependent reaction?

(3) What is the specific location for the light independent reaction?

(1) Chloroplast

(2) Thylakoid

(3) Stroma

300

What are the steps of cellular respiration (in order) and their specific locations?

(1) Glycolysis  - Cytoplasm

(2) Krebs Cycle - Mitochondria Matrix

(3) Electron Transport Chain (ETC) - Inner Mitochondrial Membrane

300

Write the correct formula for cellular respiration AND label which are the reactants and products.

You can either write down the actual elements/molecules OR just the word.

C6H12O6 + 6O2 (reactants) →  6H2O + 6CO+ ATP/energy (products)

OR

Glucose + Oxygen (reactants) → Water + Carbon Dioxide + ATP/energy (products)

In Shrek, what is Donkey going to make in the morning?

Waffles

400

Why is this explanation incorrect?

In the ATP - ADP cycle, the bond holding the second phosphate is broken to release energy so it can be used by the cell. Once the bond is broken, there are left over phosphates, and ATP becomes ADP. The ADP and phosphate are recycled again to make more ATP later on.

This is incorrect because the bond of the THIRD phosphate is broken and only the ADP is recycled, NOT the phosphate.

Why is photosynthesis essential for animals or humans?

Photosynthesis produces oxygen as a byproduct, which is necessary for the survival and cellular respiration for both animals and humans.

400

Why do humans rely on cellular respiration?

Humans rely on cellular respiration because it produces and provides cells with the energy they need to function.

400

What role do ATP, NADH, NADPH, FADH2 have in metabolic process like photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

They are the primary energy or electron carriers for both metabolic processes. ATP is the energy carrier (stores energy in the bond between the last two phosphates). NADH, NADPH and FADH2 are proteins that carry and transfer electron energy to the ETC (electron transport chain).
