|
catabolic |
|
Which one of the following energy-producing pathways requires oxygen? |
Aerobic respiration |
|
When pyruvate is converted to acetyl CoA: |

|
Which of the following reactions is incorrectly paired with its location? |
citric acid (Krebs) cycle / mitochondrial cristae
|
|
Which enzyme would use glucose-6-phosphate as a substrate and convert it to fructose-6-phosphate? |
phosphoglucoisomerase |
|
The metabolic fuction of fermentation is to: |

|
The light independent reactions of photosynthesis occur within the thylakoid membranes |
False |
|
A difference between electron transport in photosynthesis and aerobic respiration is that in photosynthesis |
light provides the energy to push electrons to the top of the electron chain, rather than energy from the oxidation of food molecules |

Which of the following is mismatched with its location? |
ATP synthase - outer chloroplast membrane |
|
Blue light has more energy than red light. Therefore blue light |
has a shorter wavelength than red light |
|

ATP, NADPH, and CO2 |
|
In the chemiosmotic synthesis of ATP in chloroplasts, H+ diffuses through ATP synthase: |
from the thylakoid space into the stroma |
|

|
No |
|
Do plants have mitochondria? |
Ya girl |
|

|
The longest phase of the cell cycle is: |
Interphase |
|
In animal cells, cytokinesis involves |
