Cellular Respiration And Photosynthesis Flashcards
Organisms that produce their own food are called…. Give an example
Autotrophs
Plants
Organisms that consume food to obtain energy are called… Give an example
Heterotrophs
Humans
What is all the chemical reactions in a cell
Metabolism
When ATP is broken down it___energy and becomes ___
Releases
ADP
When ADP and a phosphate group are bonded ___ forms and energy is __
ATP
Formed
What does ATP stand for?
Adenine triphosphate
List the 3 components of ATP
Adenine
Ribose
3 phosphate groups
The ultimate energy source for all organisms on earth is
The sun
What is the formula for photosynthesis?
Sunlight+6CO2+6H2O–>. C6H12O6+O2
The main light pigment in photosynthesis is called
Chlorophyll
They appear green because green light is. ( plants)
Reflected
In what structure does photosynthesis take place?
Chloroplasts
Which molecule is needed to start glycolysis?
Glucose
There are two types of fermentation, which cannot be carried out be humans?
Alcohol
During dependent reactions what is broken down? And what does it produce?
Water
Oxygen
When ATP releases energy it creates what?
ADP
An energy molecule that carries electrons in cellular respiration
NADPH
Two waste products of cellular respiration
CO2 and H2O
The spinning of ATP synthase forms
HTP
Used by muscles
Lactic acid fermentation
Stroma is the place that surrounds the
Thylakoids
Which step of cellular respiration produces pyruvate?
Glycolysis
Oxygen is made from the
Splitting of water
The process where plants use the energy of sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into high energy carbohydrates and oxygen waste product
Photosynthesis
Releases energy from food molecules by producing ATP in the absence of oxygen.
Fermentation
