is fermentation = anaerobic respiration?
|
NO
|
|
what are the pathways of fermentation
|
glycolysis
TCA PPP Fermentation steps |
|
is there ETC in fermentation?
|
no glycolysis provides ATP
|
|
do cells usually make lots of fermentation products

no they tend to just make one type
|
|
what is the most widely used metabolism
|
chemolithotrophy
|
|
what is chemolitho
|
inorganic CO2 and H2 for E and C
|
|
how do chemolithotrophs make organic C
|
calvin cycle
reverse TCA (one or the other not both) |
|
what molecule is involved in making organic C
|
NADH
|
|
how does reverse TCA work
|
3 CO2s to make 3 carbon sugars like pyruvate using NADH
|
|
how does the calvin cycle work
|
incroporated 6 CO2
uses NADPH |
|
what is the equation for the calvin cycle
|
6 CO2 + 12 NADPH + 18ATP
fructose 6P + 12NADP + 18ADP |
|
what is the enzyme that is required for the first step in the CC
|
rubisco
|
|
why is chemolitho growth so slowly
|
energy costly 18 ATP for cc!
|
|
in chemolitho H2 will donate electrons directly to the ___
|
ETC
|
|
what is most likely the oldest metabolism
|
photosynth specifically anoxygenic
|
|
why is photosynthesis neither aerobic nor anaerobic?
|
because it doesn't use O2
|
|
why are all photosynthesizers lithotrophs
|
because always use inorganic for E
no glucose is needed |
|
what is the carbon source in autotrophs
|
CO2
|
|
is oxygenic cyclic? how many photosystems?
|
noncyclic
I and II |
|
what is the e donor of oxygenic and the TEA
|
H2O
byproduct O2 TEA NADP+ |
|
is anoxygenic cyclic? how many photosystems?
|
yes
I |
|
what is the e donor of anoxygenic? the byproduct? the TEA?
|
inorganic not H2O
oxidzied form of electron donor NADP+ |
|
what are three types of transprot proteins
|
uniporter
antiporter symporter |
|
why is ABC called ABC
|
ATP binding cassette
|
|
what are three types of transport proteins
|
trasnprot
ABC type transport group translocation |
|
why is group translocation clever
|
doesn't use ATP
its sets up gradient by chemcially altering the substance as it is brought across the membrane |
|
what adds po4 to the substance in translocation
|
phophorotransferase
|
|
what are the macronutrients needed
|
carbon
nitrogen phosphorus sulfur potassium magnesium hydrogen caclium na fe |
|
what are two types of micronutrients
|
trace elements like cu co zn mn
growth factors like vitamins and aa |
|
what are four types of culture media you should know
|
defined
complex selective differential |
|
what type of media is NA
|
complex we don't know exactly whats in it
|
|
why can we only grow 1 to 10 percent of all MO
|
macro/micro nutrients
symbiotic relationships |
|
how do mo grow
|
in numbers not by size
use binary fission |
|
what must be replicated in the cell before binary fission
|
ribosoems
NADPH ATP cytoplasma aa DNA CW CM transcription increase translation increase |
|
describe the process of binary fission
|
parent
elongation septum formation daughter cells |
|
what are the labels of the graph of a growth curve
|
log number cells /ml

|
what are the four phases of growth curve
|
lag
exponential stationary death |
|
what may cause a stationary phase
|
waste products start to build up
decrease in avail nutrients |
|
anaerobic respiration only differs in the growth curve in the ___ phase
|
exponential
anaerobic has lesser rate |
|
what are three ways to measure bacti growth
|
total counts
viable plate count turbidity |
|
what are pros and conc of total counts
|
cons
orientation layers too many cfu pros soil count after chemical spill |

use spectrometer to measure absorbane and transmittance
|
|
what does turbitdity NOT give you
|
concentration
|
|
what are pros and cons
|
good for relationships
bad because no concentration |
|
how can you get conc from turbidity
|
spc
abs/time and log number cells/ time make new logs number cells/mL /absorbance |
|
what do we use turbidity for commonly
|
water treatment
|
|
