Cellular Respiration And The Respiratory System Flashcards
Where is the electron transport chain taking place?
Inner Membranes of the mitochondria
In a plant cell, the synthesis of sugar compounds from inorganic raw materials occurs in the
chloroplasts
What equation represents the process of photosynthesis
Carbon dioxide + water —->glucose + oxygen
What are the basic raw materials of photosynthesis
Water and carbon dioxide
Why is CO2 and water needed for photosynthesis
The molecules in include molecules of glucose and oxygen these two are needed to begin cellular respiration
Calvin cycle is also called
light independent reaction
Calvin cycle
CO2, ATP, NADPH ——> glucose, ADP, NADP+
CO2, ATP, NADPH ——> glucose, ADP, NADP+
Calvin cycle
Where does energy in photosynthesis come from
The energy comes from sunlight
Materials used in photosynthesis
Carbon dioxide and water
Materials produced by photosynthesis
Glucose and oxygen
Timeframe for photosynthesis
When sunlight is available usually during the daytime
Relationship of photosynthesis to respiration
The energy originally stored and glucose during photosynthesis is transferred to the chemical bonds of ATP all cells run on the energy released from ATP
Cellular respiration
The Process of releasing the energy in chemical bonds
The Process of releasing the energy in chemical bonds
Cellular respiration
Where does energy for cellular respiration come from
Comes from the chemical bond energy of glucose molecules ends up in the bonds of ATP where it can be utilized for cell activities
Timeframe of cellular respiration
24/7
Location of cellular respiration
Mitochondria in most cells
Energy used for cells is stored in the form of
Chemical bond energy
In which process do organisms transfer the chemical bond energy in organic molecules to ATP molecules
Cellular respiration
The process during which energy is released from digested foods is called
Cellular respiration
Which statement best describes one of the events taking place in the chemical reaction represented below
H2O+ATP —enzymes—> ADP+P+Energy
A)Energy is being stored as a result of cellular respiration
B)Energy is being released for metabolic processes
C)Decomposition is taking place resulting in the synthesis of ATP
D)Photosynthesis is taking place resulting the storage of energy
B) energy is being released for metabolic processes
Glycolysis
First station anaerobic and aerobic cellular respiration breaks glucose down into two pyruvic acid molecules making twoATP
The greatest number of molecules of ATP is produced as a result of
Aerobic respiration
Which statement concerning the process of aerobic respiration is true
(1) It is identical to the process of burning
(2) It is quite similar in all organisms
(3) It usually does not involve organic catalysts
(4) It usually does not involve carbon dioxide production
(2)It is quite similar and all organisms
During which process is oxygen used by green plants
Respiration
To start the oxidation of one molecule of glucose, two molecules of ATP must be used because
Certain chemical reactions in a living cell require activation energy
The aerobic respiration of a molecule of glucose releases more energy than the anaerobic respiration of a molecule of glucose because, in aerobic respiration,
More chemical bonds are broken
In a green plant cell, oxygen is used primarily for the process of
respiration
In animals, the organelles in which aerobic cellular respiration occurs are known as
Mitochondria
Within a plant cell, the glucose formed as a result of photosynthesis may be used directly as
An energy source during cellular respiration
Most animals make energy available for cell activity by transferring the potential energy of glucose to ATP. This process occurs during
Both aerobic and anaerobic respiration
Which of the following processes releases the greatest amount of energy?
(1) The oxidation of one glucose molecule to lactic acid molecules
(2) The oxidation of one glucose molecule to carbon dioxide and water molecules
(3) The conversion of two glucose molecules to a maltose molecule
(4) The conversion of one glucose molecule to alcohol and carbon dioxide molecules
(2) the oxidation of one glucose molecule to carbon dioxide and water molecules
The oxidation of a glucose molecule Results in the synthesis of ATP, water, and carbon dioxide. This is a process known as
Aerobic respiration
A similarity in the aerobic respiratory activity of animals is the
(1) gases used and produced
(2) net gain of fourATP molecules
(3) type of alcohol produced
(4) Temperature of the respiratory organs
(1) gases used and produced
Products of aerobic respiration in green plants are
Carbon dioxide and water
The main result of aerobic respiration is the
Production of ATP and the breakdown of glucose
Statement best describes an aerobic heterotroph
(1) It uses free oxygen for respiration but it cannot make its own food
(2) it uses free oxygen for respiration and it can make its own food
(3) it does not use free oxygen for respiration and it cannot make its own food
(4) it does not use free oxygen for respiration but it can make its own food
(1) It uses free oxygen for respiration but it cannot make its own food
The potential energy of organic molecules is most readily available to cells in the form of
ATP (adenosine triphosphate)
In the process of respiration, aerobic organisms generally use
(1) CO2 and give off molecular oxygen
(2) molecular nitrogen and give of CO2
(3) CO2 and give off molecular nitrogen
(4) molecular oxygen and give off CO2
(4) molecular oxygen and give off CO2
