18 ATP
2FADH2 (Krebs):
?
2 NADH (Glycolysis)
?
2 NADH (pyruvate  acetyl CoA)
?
Total energy (ATP) from aerobic cellular respiration:
36 ATP
Total energy (ATP) from anaerobic respiration:
2 ATP
What are the 3 stages of cellular respiration?
1, Glycolysis- aerobic
2. Citric Acid Cycle ((Krebs)-anaerobic
3. Electric transport chain- anaerobic
Where in the cell and during what stage does glycolysis take place?
In the cytoplasm during the 1srt stage of cellular respiration.
Where in the cell and during what stage(s) does aerobic respiration take place?
In the mitochondrion during the last 2 stages of cellular respiration.
Where in the cell and during what stage(s) does aerobic respiration take place?
In the mitochondrion during the last 2 stages of cellular respiration.
What is oxygen ultimately used for in aerobic respiration?
Without Oxygen, the protiens in the electron transport chain cannot pass along the electrons. If it cannot pass an electron, it cannot accept a new one either. The entire chain becomes blocked and aerobic process of cellular respirataion cannot happen.
How does oxygen facilitate the protiens in the electron transport chain?
Oxtgeb reacts with 4 hydrogen ions (4H+) to form 2 molecules of water (H2O). THis helps the protiens pass along the electrons.
What is the formula for respiration?
C6H12O6+6O2-->6CO2+6H2O+ENERGY
What is the formula for photosynthesis?
6 CO2+12 H2O+ photons--> C6H12O6 + 6 O2 +6 H2O
-OR-
6 CO2+ 6 H2O-->C6H12O6+
6 O2
What is the formula for glycolysis?
C6H12O6+ 2ATP+2NAD+ --> 2pyruvate+4ATP+2NADH
What process replaces the NAD+ so that glycolysis can continue?
Fermentation
In which organelle does photosynthesis take place?
Chloroplasts
Where does the light-dependent reaction of photosynthesis take place?
Thylakiod Membranes
Where does the light-independent reaction of photosynthesis take place?
Stroma
What is the role of water in photosynthesis?
H2O donates H+ ions which are used to generate ATP
What is the role of carbon dioxide in photosynthesis?
Carbon Dioxide is a carrier molecule for H (CO2+H=carbohydrate)
What is the role of NADP+ in photosynthesis?
NADP+ carries energized electrons to another location.
(transporter)
What is a product of the Calvin Cycle?
Carbohydrates
What are the structured parts of a chloroplast?
Thykaliod, Grana, Stroma, two membranes.
What are the structural parts of a mitochondria?
Matrix, Inner Membrane, Outer Membrane, Cristae
Where does the Krebs cycle take place?
In the Inner Membrane of the mitochondria.
What is another name for the Krebs cycle?
The Citric Acid Cycle
Where does the ETC takes place?
In the Inner Membrane of the mitochondria.
What happens in the Calvin Cycle?
Glucose molecules are formed.
What happens in the Citric Acid Cycle (Krebs)?
Glucose is broken down.
What is a chromatid?
One of 2 identical chromosome strands of DNA in Mitosis.
During which phase of the cell cycle is an organism 4n?
Telephase II (?)
During which phase of meiosis does the organism become 2n?
Telephase I (?)
During which phase of meiosis does an organism become n?
Meiosis I (?)
When do spindle fibers form?
Prophase I
What is the role of centrioles?
Help divide DNA during cell division.
What types of cells do NOT have centrioles?
Prokaryotic (?) Some Plant Cells or bacteria (?)
How are the chromosomes in metaphase of mitosis arranged differently from the chromosomes in metaphase 1 of meiosis?
In Mitosis, chromosomes split. In Meiosis, they stay together. (?)
Give two examples of asexual reproduction?
Binary fision and Budding
During the process of sexual reproduction, 2 haploid cells unite to form a diploid ________________.
zygote
What is synapsis?
Pairing of 2 homologous chromosomes during meiosis.
What is crossing over?
The exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromotids during Prophase I.
Explain how crossing over is beneficial.
Starts the process (?)
The process of uniting two gametes to form a zygote is:
Fertilization
What results from nondisjunction during meiosis?
Homologous chromosomes do not separate properly.
What is polyploidy?
More than 2 set of paired chromosomes.
Why is polyploidy more harmful in animals than in plants?
causes abnormalities (?)
What is polyploidy?
More than 2 set of paired chromosomes.
Why is polyploidy more harmful in animals than in plants?
causes abnormalities (?)
What type of transport is osmosis?
Passive Transport ( it requires no energy) because it goes from a higher concentration to a low concentration. It does not go against it's concentration gradient ("active transport)"
What type of transport is diffusion?
Diffusion and Osmosis are both types of PASSIVE TRANSPORT - that is, no energy is required for the molecules to move into or out of the cell.
What type of transport is endocytosis?
Active transport process by which large particles enter a cell.
What type of transport is exocytosis?
Active transport.
What is the function of the plasma membrane?
The plasma membrane is a very important structure which functions to allow certain substances to enter or leave the cell.
What is Selective permeability?
The cell membrane has some control over what can cross it, so that only certain molecules either enter or leave the cell. They are "selectively permeable".
What is osmosis?
The movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high water potential (low solute concentration) to an area of low water potential
What is hypotonic?
a solution which contains more solute than solvent (example: a lot of salt(solute) dissolved in water(solvent))
What is hypertonic?
a solution which contains more solvent than solute (example: purified water--there's almost no solute dissolved in the solvent(water))
What is isotonic?
a solution in which the solute and solvent are equally distributed--a cell normally wants to remain in an isotonic solution, where the concentration of the liquid inside of it equals the concentration of the liquid outside of it
What is diffusion?
the process by which molecules spread from areas of high concentratiion, to areas of low concentration.
