CH 5: Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

Question 1

Is Photosynthesis or Cellular Resperation Anabolic or Catabolic?

Answer 1

• Photosynthesis - Anabolic
• Cellular Resperation - Catabolic

Question 2

What is the top layer of a plant to help prevent it from leaking moisture?

Answer 2

Cuticle

Can be waxy or hairy

Question 3

what is right under the cuticle in a plant

Answer 3

upper epidermis

Question 4

What is the layer of a plant with large rectangular cells and is right next to the upper epidermis?

Answer 4

Palisade layer

Question 5

What layer of the plant is right next to the lower epidermis and contains the xylem and phloem?

Answer 5

Spongy Layer

Question 6

What is a stoma?

Answer 6

An opening within the plant to let gasses in and out.

Question 7

What are the cells right next to the stoma called?

Answer 7

Guard cells

Question 8

What is the area with the stoma and the guard cells called?

Answer 8

Lower Epidermis

Question 9

What does the xylem do?

Answer 9

Moves water only Up the plant

Question 10

What does the Phloem do?

Answer 10

Moves sugars around the plant (up and down)

Question 11

Define Anabolic. Is it endergonic or exergonic?

Answer 11

Synthesizes larger molecules from smaller ones.

Endergonic

Question 12

Define Catabolic. Is it endergonic or exergonic?

Answer 12

Breaks down big molecules into smaller ones.

Exergonic

Question 13

Define Endergonic.

Answer 13

Absorbs energy, creating a product with more energy than the reactants

Question 14

Define Exergonic.

Answer 14

Releases energy, reactants had more stored energy than the products

Question 15

Free/Avaliable energy allows us to…

Answer 15

• Have very organized and ordered bodies
• Grow
• Reproduce
• Mintain homeostasis
• Have energy storage

Question 16

Difference between Homeostasis and Ordered with energy

Answer 16

Homeostasis is maintaining internal temperature while ordered is maintaining the ability to function no matter what temperature it is.

Don’t have to know exact difference

Question 17

Define Metabolism.

Answer 17

How quickly the organism turns food into energy.

Question 18

What are two things that increase metabolism?

Answer 18

Eating certain foods and exercise

Question 19

What are two things that slow down metabolism?

Answer 19

Age and dehydration.

Question 20

Why do larger animals have slower metabolisms the smaller ones?

Answer 20

Smaller animals have a harder time maintaining a stable internal environment.

Question 21

What is Oxidation?

Answer 21

The loss of an electron.

Question 22

What is reduction?

Answer 22

The gain of an electron.

Question 23

Does a molecule gain or lose energy when it is oxidized? What about reduced?

Answer 23

Molecules lose energy when it is oxidized and gain energy when it is reduced.

Question 24

Why do objects show colours?

Answer 24

Objects appear to show colours because they selectively absorb certain wavelengths of light and reflect others..

Question 25

What does the Absorption Spectrum show?

Answer 25

This spectrum demonstrates which colors of light the plant's pigments are capable of capturing and using for photosynthesis, | Baised on their pigments, dosen't absorb green because plants are green.

Question 26

What does the Action Spectrum show?

Answer 26

It reveals which specific wavelengths or colors of light stimulate photosynthetic activity most effectively in a plant.

Question 27

What are the similarities between the Absorbtion and Action spectrum of a plant? What does it show?

Answer 27

The action spectrum aligns with the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll, with peaks in the blue and red regions of the spectrum. both show what wavelengths of light are most efficient in promoting photosynthesis in plants.

Question 28

Define a Pigment.

Answer 28

A material that changes the colour of reflected or transmitted light.

Question 29

What is Chromatography

Answer 29

The technique used to identify and separate mixtures.

Question 30

Where do cellular respiration and photosynthesis take place?

Answer 30

Mitochondria and Chlorophyll/Thylakoid respectfully.

Question 31

What should you say about algae and bacteria with wavelengths of light graph?

Answer 31

For certain wavelengths of light, more bacteria can grow because the algae can photosynthesize more.

Question 32

What is the formula for ATP production

Answer 32

ADP+Pi+free energy→ATP

Question 33

What is the formula for ADP?

Answer 33

ATP→ADP+Pi+ free energy

Question 34

what does ATP stand for?

Answer 34

Adenosine triphosphate

Question 35

Is oxygen reduced or oxidized in cellular respiration?

Answer 35

Reduced into carbon dioxide.

Question 36

How to find the RF value

Answer 36

How far is the pigment has traveled divided by how far the solvent has traveled

Question 37

What acts as the final electron acceptor in anaerobic processes

Answer 37

Sulfate, nitrate, or carbon dioxide.

Question 38

What is reduced in fermentation?

Answer 38

ADP

Question 39

What high energy molecules does plants use up in the Calvin benson cycle?

Answer 39

NADPH and ATP
