Chapter 5 Test Flashcards
What does Photosynthesis do?
Uses sunlight to make sugar (Glucose)
Who are the producers of Photosynthesis?
Autotrophs
What is the overall reaction of photosynthesis?
6CO2 + 6H2O + Light = C6H1206 + 6O2
What does Light Dependent Require and produce?
Requires water and light and produces Oxygen, NADPH, and ATP
What does light independent require and produce?
Requires: Carbon and ATP
Produces: Glucose
On average, what percentage of the food we eat on a daily basis comes from carbohydrates?
60%
On average, what percentage of the food we eat on a daily basis comes from carbohydrates?
60%
What is another name for cellulose?
Fiber
What Organelle breaks down carbohydrates into usable energy?
ATP
Is cellular respiration aerobic or anaerobic?
Aerobic (Needs Oxygen to take place)
What is the reaction of Cellular Respiration?
C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
What does Glycolysis do?
It splits glucose into 2 three-carbon molecules
Is glycolysis Aerobic or Anaerobic?
Anaerobic (Does not need Oxygen to take place)
O - O - O / O - O - O
What is this?
Glycolysis
Where does Cellular Respiration take place?
Mitochondria
What is the first stage of Cellular Respiration?
Krebs Cycle
Where does the Krebs Cycle take place?
Matrix (Interior of Mitochondrion)
What are other energy carrying molecules other than ATP?
NADH and FADH
What is the second stage of cellular respiration?
Electron transport train
How much ATP is made in the electron transport cycle?
34-36 ATP
Where does the electron transport train take place?
In and across the Mitochondrial membrane
What is fermentation?
Anaerobic respiration
What is the first passage of fermentation?
Lactic Acid fermentation
What happens in Lactic Acid fermentation?
Pyruvate (From glycolysis) is converted into lactic acid
Where does Lactic Acid fermentation occur?
muscle cells
Where does Lactic Acid fermentation occur?
microorganisms
What is the second passage in Fermentation?
Alcoholic fermentation
What happens in Alcoholic fermentation?
Pyruvate is converted in Ethyl Alcohol and CO2
Where does Alcoholic fermentation occur?
some plants and microorganisms
What is the name for the process that uses chemicals as an energy source (Instead of sunlight) to build sugars?
Chemosynthesis
Where in a cell does photosynthesis take place?
Chloroplast
Where in a cell does photosynthesis take place?
Chloroplast
What are the reactants of Photosynthesis?
H2O and CO2
