Q

A potted plant is placed inside a clear, sealed vacuum container with no gas inside the container at all. It also has water pumped into it on a regular basis. The container is placed in the sun and the plant’s growth is monitored. Which statement best describes what will most likely happen to the plant over time?

A

The plant will die because it does not have carbon dioxide for photosynthesis

Q

Michelle has four aquatic plants of the same size and the same species. She submerges the plants in a separate beaker filled with 200 ml of water. She then sets each beaker under a different intensity of light. Michelle observes that, of the four plants, the plant in the beaker under the most intense light gives off the most gas bubbles in a 20 minute period. Which of the following statements best explains Michelle’s observations?

A

Photosynthesis occurs at the highest rate under the most intense light

Q

Which process takes place in the presence of oxygen and produces nearly 20 times as much as ATP as glycolysis alone?

A

Aerobic respiration

17
Q

Two different species of bacteria are examined. Scientists find that species X always produces CO2 and H2O during cellular respiration. Species Y always produces ethyl alcohol and CO2. Which conclusion can be made from these observations?

A

Only species y is anaerobic

18
Q

A weightlifter is using heavy weights in short bursts for a competition. Because his muscle cells are not able to take in enough oxygen to make very much ATP the weightlifter begins to get fatigue in his muscles. Which of the following processes is most likely going on in the muscles of the weightlifter as he competes in his event?

A

As the cells run out of oxygen they switch to anaerobic respiration, which allows the cell to make small amount of atp in the absence of oxygen

19
Q

Which process do the animals in a food web or food chain use to convert energy from “food” into ATP?

A

Cellular respiration

20
Q

Human brain cells are some of the few cells in a human that do not undergo any form of fermentation. Which of the following might explain why even a short period of time without oxygen might result in the death of brain cells?

A

Because the cells would not be able to produce atp in order to function

21
Q

How do photosynthesis and cellular respiration form a cycle of energy storage and use?

A

Photosynthesis stores energy in sugar; cell respiration releases energy from those sugars

22
Q

Which of the following diagrams accurately represents the use of gases in both cellular respiration and photosynthesis?

A

a

23
Q

. A diagram representing the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration is shown below. The numbered boxes in the diagram represent which of the following?

A

a. 1-oxygen; 2- carbon dioxide

24
Q
  1. The diagram below shows a cross section of a plant leaf. How does the structure marked as the stoma contribute to the survival of the plant?
A

It allows the intake of gasses necessary for photosynthesis

25
Q
  1. Transpiration is a process in plants that allows them to release gases or intake gases for metabolic processes. Which of the following structures are likely involved in this gas exchange process? In other words, what parts of a plants leaf allows for gasses like oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water to move in/out of the plant?
A

stoma, guard cells
