What is the purpose of photosynthesis?
|
To convert solar energy into the form of chemical energy in the production of glucose.
|
|
What is ATP?
|
adenosine triphosphate
|
|
What organelle does the light dependant reactions occur in?
|
Thylakoid (Granum)
|
|
What goes into a light independent reaction? And what is the product?
|
ATP,NADPH, and CO2 go in.
Glucose is produced |
|
What happens in photosytem II?
|
Light hits the photosystem, which excites the electrons and they then enter the electron transport chain, allowing them to give up that energy in a usable chemical form, ATP
|
|
What are the three stages of photosynthesis?
|
1) Converting solar energy into electron energy
2) Using the energy to create ATP and NADPH molecules 3) Using these molecules to produce glucose |
|
What is Oxidation?
|
when a reacant loses an electron during a reaction.
|
|
What is Reduction?
|
reduction iswhen a reactant gains an electron during a reaction.
|
|
What do chloroplasts use to turn 6 molecules of carbon dioxide and 6 molecules of water into 1 molecule of glucose
|
Photon energy
|
|
What color of light does photosynthesis use?
|
All except green light
|
|
What is the difference between Aerobic and Anaerobic respiration?
|
Aerobic respiration uses oxygen and Anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen.
|
|
What does glycolysis result in?
|
2 ATP, 2 NADH and 2 pyruvate
|
|
In cellular respiration, where does the electron transport chain occur?
|
The cristae
|
|
How many ATP does Aerobic Respiration yield without glycolysis?
|
34 ATP
|
|
What is the product of anaerobic respiration that causes muscle cramps?
|
Lactic acid
|
|
How many ATP does Anaerobic Respiration yield
|
2 ATP
|
|
What 3-Carbon sugar does glucose get broken up into during glycolysis?
|
Pyruvate
|
|
In ONE cycle of the Kreb's Cycle what is produced?
|
3 NADH, 1 FADH2, 1 ATP and 2 CO2 molecules
|
|
How many cycles does the Kreb Cycle go through for each glucose molecule?
|
twice
|
|
In preperation for Krebs 2 pyruvate are converted into_________________
|
2 acetyl CoA, 2 CO2 and 2 NADH
|
