Q

Photosystem II

A

electrons become excited by light energy is then produced and it goes to chl a then electrons become excited and transferred to the ETC then water splits and replenishes e- to Chl A, protons (H+) move into thylakoid space to increase concentration protons then move down their concentration gradient through an enzyme which uses this energy to add phosphate to ADP to make ATP

Q

Allosteric Inhibiton

A

molecule bins onto another site, not the active site,causing a change to the active site, which becomes no longer a proper fit for the substrate to bind

Q

Cellular Respiration: Kreb’s Cycle

A

After Acetyl CoA enters this cycle, it is transformed into electron carrier molecules, nadh & fadh2 which will drive ETC then more CO2 is released as a by product

17
Q

inhibitor

A

molecule binds to the active site and inhibits substrate from binding

18
Q

osmoregulation

A

process by which organisms control water balance then part of the homeostatic capabilities of living organisms to adjust to our changing enviornment

19
Q

glycolysis

A

initiator:glucose
important product: pyruvate 2 atp 2 nadh
location: cytosol

20
Q

phagocytosis

A

endocytosis into a food vesicle

21
Q

photosystem I

A

to replenish electrons to another chl a then e- from this chl a are used to make nadph from nadp+

22
Q

hypertonic

A

concentration of solute is higher on the outside of the cell membrane which makes the cell shrink

23
Q

enzymes

A
catalyst
speed up chem. reactions
protein
amino acids
lower activation energy
lock and key mechanism
24
Q

hypotonic

A

concentration of solutes is lower outside the cell membrane which causes the cell to burst

25
Q

osmosis

A

spontaneous movement of water down its concentration gradient across a semi permeable membrane
