Q

What are the differences between the “Cheesy Way to Measure Calories Lab” and cell respiration?

A

Lab (burning food) does not actually consume and break down food like cell respiration does, but instead burns. It takes place outside of a living organism and causes a chemical reaction to create energy w/o being a biological process in the body.

Q

KREBS CYCLE!!! AHHH what happens?!?

A

COA is like bye gurl to Ms. Acetyl -> Ms. Acetyl (2c) moves on to Mr. Oxaloacetate (4c) -> leading them to SIT together and become #Citrate. BUT!!! 2 CO2 leave, converting #Citrate into only #Oxaloacetate. In this process of Mr. Oxaloacetate becoming single again, he lets out tears of Hydrogen ions, which 3NAD steal to become 3NADH and FAD to FADH. All his crying builds up to release ATP!! Then Mr. Ox goes back to find Ms. Acetyl (cycle repeats).

Q

Describe the process in the Electron transport chain

A

Electron carriers are filled with Electrons dropped off by NADH (which leaves as NAD), and FADH, (which leaves as FAD).

Hydrogen ions from NADH and FADH enter the inner mitochondria membrane, where it builds up to a super high concentration.

As the electron nears the end of the chain, oxygen accepts it with a hydrogen ion and becomes water (product).

Hydrogen ions release thru ATP synthase so fast that phosphates bond with ADP to create ATP (product).

Q

What are the NADHs and FADH2s for? - What do they do for the process of cell respiration?

A

Intermediate Energy Carriers (TAXXIIISSSS - cash cab #GETAWAY CAR), take hydrogen & electrons in Glycolysis and Kreb’s and transfers them so the energy can be used in ETC

17
Q

When is carbon dioxide released? Why?

A

It is released in the Link Reaction (glycolysis -> Krebs transition). Also is released in Krebs cycle (2CO2). This is why CO2 is a product of Cell Respiration and humans breathe it out

18
Q

How would Oxygen & Co2 levels change in a tank with more algae?

A

O2 levels INCREASE (due to respiration releasing oxy)
CO2 levels DECREASE (algae takes in more co2 when light is out.)

19
Q

More fish in a tank would affect oxygen and carbon dioxide levels by..

A

Decreasing oxygen, Increasing carbon dioxide #Thanks Cellular Respiration!

20
Q

More Algae in a tank would affect oxygen and carbon dioxide levels by..

A

IN DARK: oxygen decreases, Co2 increases
IN LIGHT: oxygen increases, Co2 decreases
#Thanks photosynthesis

21
Q

The photosynthetic organ of the plant is..

A

The leaf, where ever chloroplast is found

22
Q

An abundance of vascular tissue is found.. (in plants)

A

In the stems

23
Q

These two reactions/cycles go hand in hand when photosynthesis is occuring

A

Light Reactions & Calvin Cycle

24
Q

What is the relationship between cell respiration and photosynthesis?

A

Cell respiration produces products needed for photosynthesis and vice versa.

Products in question:
cell resp - carbon dioxide + water
photosynthesis - glucose + oxygen

25
Q

What is the difference between energy and matter flow through ecosystems?

A

Energy flows straight through an ecosystem in one direction (only 10%, the rest is lost as heat). Matter (carbon) flows through ecosystems in a cycle

26
Q

Identify all of the major players in an ecosystem

A

Producers
primary
secondary
tertiary
quaternary
consumers

27
Q

What does the pyramid of energy show?

A

shows amount of energy at each trophic level of food chain

28
Q

Pyramid of Matter

A

shows biomass (matter) present in trophic level of food chain

29
Q

Pyramid of Numbers

A

shows total # of organisms at each trophic level of food chain

30
Q

What is the 10% Rule?

A

only 10% of an organism’s energy is transferred to its consumer; 90% is used by the organism to sustain itself

31
Q

What are trophic cascades?

A

Trophic Cascades: when something very vital and powerful to an ecosystem gets removed and disrupts the flow of the rest of the ecosystem

32
Q

How does the flow of matter and energy through ecosystems relate to bear hibernation?

A

By the food they consume, bears can store energy during hibernation. As they hibernate, bears can store all the food in their body, causing them to bulk up and conserve it for upcoming seasons.
