Q

How does ATP synthase make ATP?

A

Once three protons have entered the matrix space, there is enough energy in the ATP synthase complex to synthesize one ATP.

Q

Aerobic

A

requires oxygen

17
Q

What kinds of organisms use cell respiration?

A

bacteria, archaea, plants, protists, animals, and fungi

18
Q

How does the circulatory system (heart, blood, and vessels) work in conjunction with the respiratory system?

A

the circulatory system supplies oxygen and nutrients to our bodies by working with the respiratory system. At the same time, the circulatory system helps carry waste and carbon dioxide out of the body. Hormones — produced by the endocrine system — are also transported through the blood in the circulatory system

19
Q

why is the circulatory system and respiratory system working together important in terms of cell respiration?

A

Each time you breathe in, the respiratory system
takes in the oxygen that your cells require to carry out cellular respiration. Carbon dioxide and water are also produced when cells carry out cellular respiration. Your body gets rid of carbon dioxide every time you
breathe out.

20
Q

Know the equation for cell respiration. How do the products and reactants of cell respiration relate to those of photosynthesis?

A

6O2 + C6H2O6 ==>6CO2 + 6H2O +ATP
oxygen + glucose ==> carbon + water +energy
dioxide

21
Q

Is cell respiration exothermic or endothermic? Explain.

A

exothermic, it releases energy

22
Q

What is the ultimate outcome of cellular respiration?

A

energy

23
Q

Can multicellular organisms sustain fermentation

A

no

24
Q

Understand why cellular respiration is essential to multicellular life.

A

it provides the energy for living organisms to perform all of the other necessary functions to maintain life.

25
Q

Understand the type of fermentation conducted by humans, and the impact that its by-product can have on the body.

A

lactic acid fermentation. makes muscles burn during strenuous exercise.

26
Q

Understand the relationship between fermentation and glycolysis

A

fermentation is the sue of glycolysis to make ATP in the absence of of oxygen

27
Q

what is the purpose of making by-products through fermentation?

A

doesn’t use oxygen

28
Q

What condition leads to the process of fermentation being used?

A

no oxygen

29
Q

What are the possible by-products of fermentation?

A

lactic acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation

30
Q

why does one of them make our muscles burn after strenuous exercise and which one?

A

the lactic acid and it builds up

31
Q

some of the food products that are made using fermentation.

A

cheese, yogurt, other dairy products

32
Q

How is ATP made through the e- transport chain?

A

the electron transport chain uses high energy electrons from the Krebs cycle to make ADP into ATP

33
Q

How many ATP molecules are produced by fermentation/glycolysis? How many are produced by cellular respiration (including glycolysis)?

A

fermentation/glycolysis produces 2 ATP. cellular respiration produces 36 ATP - 2 glycolysis and 34 Krebs/Transportation chain

34
Q

Which is stored in the cell? Which is used for cellular energy?

A

ADP is stored then the extra phosphate is added to make ATP when the cell needs energy.

35
Q

How is this different from photosynthesis?

A

Photosynthesis: obtains energy, is endothermic, and takes place in the chloroplast. Cell respiration breaks down glucose for energy, is exothermic, and takes place in the mitochondria.

36
Q

An air-breathing organ (ABO), in addition to gill respiration, appeared in fishes about 400 M years ago. It consisted of a single primitive lung ventilated by a buccal pump. This breathing system was adopted by the first terrestrial tetrapods, and is largely preserved in current amphibians. In the Amniotes, the buccal pulsing pump has been replaced with a costal aspiration pump. In mammals, this ABO evolved into a bronchoalveolar lung. In “Reptiles”, the ABO is a partitioned lung with one or several cavities. It serves as a gas exchanger but also as an O(2) reserve, which allows for long periods of apnoea. In birds, the ABO is a tubular structure ventilated by unidirectional airflow. Such a breathing system allows for high rates of O(2) consumption. The diversity of structure and function of the Vertebrate lung should not be analysed as a progression of increasing complexity towards mammal lungs, but rather as diverse responses to varying environmental conditions and phylogenic constraints, and to the challenge of acquiring oxygen necessary for aerobic metabolism.
