ATP / Photosynthesis Flashcards
The bond that contains the most potential chemical energy in an ATP molecule is between the
2nd and 3rd phosphate
when ADP and an independent phosphate join together…
ATP is formed
Energy is stored
what are things cells might use energy (ATP) for?
- respond to signals
- creat proteins
- transport across cell membrane
plants get there nutrition/mass from
Air
Autotroph example
any plant
Heterotroph example
any animal or human
which are inputs for photosynthesis (left side of equation)
Water
Sunlight
Carbon Dioxide
Where does photosynthesis take place
chloroplast
which leaf pigments are responsible for yellow and orange colors of leaves in autumm
Carotenoids
what occurs during the light-dependent reactions
water is converted into oxygen
chlorophyll absorbs sunlight
Three parts of ATP
.. adenine
Triphosphate
Ribose
When energy is released from ATP it becomes
ADP
When energy is stored it becomes
ATP
organisms that make their own food
Autotrophs (plants)
this progress occurs in the mitochondrion
Cellular Respiration
C6 H12 O6
Glucose
Process that does not require oxygen
anarobic respiration
The anaerobic process of splitting glucose
Glycolysis
where does glycolysis occur
In Both Anaerobic and Aerobic Respiration
What molecule is created at the end of glycosis
Pyruvic Acid
Fermentation occurs when there is
not enough oxygen
lactic acid is used in
yogurts and Sauerkraut
