Where energy is located in ATP |
The bonds between phosphates |
|
Why ATP is needed |
Main source of energy for the cell |
|
Photosynthetic cells convert solar energy to |
Chemical energy |
|
Photosynthesis equation |
6 CO2 + 6 H2O + light energy ==> C6H12O6 + 6 O2 |
|
Products of light dependent reactions |
ATP, NADPH2, O2 |
|
Products of light independent reactions |
C6H12O6 |
|
Organelle where photosynthesis occurs |
Chloroplast |
|
Factors that effect photosynthesis |
Light intensity, carbon dioxide concentration, temperature, humidity |
|
Equation for cellular respiration |
C6H12O6 + 6 O2 ==> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + 38 ATP |
|
Three parts of cellular respiration |
Glycolysis, krebs cycle, electron transport chain |
|
Glycolysis |
Break down of glucose into two pyruvate molecules, using 2 ATP but creating 4 ATP |
|
Krebs or citric acid cycle |
Part of the pathway for the breakdown of glucose and other metabolites, uses CO2 |
|
Electron transport chain |
Electrons transport form electron donors to electron acceptors with H+ ions |
|
Cellular respiration and photosynthesis both occur in |
Plant cells |
|
Photosynthesis vs Cellular respiration |
The chemical formula for each is reversed for their opposite Photosynthesis yields glucose and water while cellular respiration breaks down glucose and water |
|
How cells break down macromolecules |
Digestion, glycolysis, oxidative breakdown |
|
Where cellular respiration occurs |
Mitochondria (the power house of the cell) |
|
Number of ATP made by cellular respiration vs fermentation |
Cellular respiration - 38 Fermentation - 2 |
|
Alcoholic fermentation |
Occurs in yeast cells and some bacteria to keep the production of ATP going pyruvic acid ==> ethyl acid + CO2 |
|
Lactic acid fermentation |
Occurs in animal cells to keep the production of ATP going when there is low oxygen and respiration cannot occur 2 pyruvate + 2 ADP ==> 2 lactic acid + 2 ATP |
