Biology study guide for final! Flashcards
Where does all energy come from?
The sun
What are producers?
An autotroph. Gets energy from non-living things. Captures energy during photosynthesis.
What are consumers?
Heterotroph. Energy from living organisms.
What is the photosynthesis equation?
6Co2 + 6H2O (yield) C6H12O6 + 6O2
What is an omnivore?
Eats meat and plants
What is a Herbivore?
Only eats plants
What is a carnivore?
Only eats meat
What are deritivores?
Eats dead materials
What is the process energy goes through?
Photosynthesis
What are the reactants of photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide and water. They are ingredients.
What are the products of photosynthesis?
Glucose and oxygen. They are results.
What are the structures that build the chloroplast?
Grana, stroma, outer membrane, inner membrane, intermembrane, lumen, and thylakoid.
What is grana?
Pancake like stacks of thylakoid membrane.
What is stroma?
The fluid-like structure that fills the space between the grana.
What is the thylakoid?
The site of LDR.
What is the Lumen?
The open space in the thylakoid.
Where does LDR occur?
In the grana.
What is the purpose of LDR?
Capture energy from the sun and store energy in “energy carrying molecules”.
Where does LIR occur?
In the stroma.
Whet is the purpose of LIR?
Use the energy from the “energy carrying molecules” from the LDR to make sugar/glucose.
What is chemosynthesis?
The process of an organism making its own food using chemicals (chemo) instead of sunlight (photo) like in photosynthesis.
The summary of photosynthesis.
Water splits to make oxygen, protons, and electrons. Protons make ATP/energy and electrons make NADPH. Sunlight fuels the electrons that go through the electron transport chain. The ATP and NADPH go to LIR. Co2 goes into LIR. The ATP and NADPH help make G3p, which is used to make glucose.
What is the goal of cellular respiration?
Convert the chemical energy in food (glucose) to chemical energy stored in ATP.
What is the Cellular respiration equation?
cho + o2 (yield) co2 + h2o + Energy
Is cellular exo or endo?
Exothermic
What are the reactants of cellular?
glucose and oxygen. Ingredients.
What are the products of cellular?
carbon dioxide and water. Results.
What are the structures of the mitochondria?
Inter-membrane and matrix.
What is the inter-membrane?
Folded membrane
What is the matrix?
Fluid like substances that fills up the space.
