Q

Function of gall bladder

A

Stores bile before it is released into the small intestine

23
Q

Function of stomach

A

Strong muscles to grind up food and uses acid to chemically break down food

24
Q

Function of pancreas

A

Releases digestive enzymes and insulin into small intestine

25
Q

Function of small intestine

A

Some food breakdown and lots of nutrient absorption into the blood stream

26
Q

Function of large intestine

A

Absorbs water into body

27
Q

Function of anus

A

Exit for all undigested food and waste

28
Q

What is a substrate

A

The substance with which an enzyme reacts

29
Q

What is the active site

A

The place where the reaction takes place

30
Q

What is meant by enzyme specificity

A

Refers to the tendency for enzymes to catalyze a specific set of chemical reactions

31
Q

What is a monosaccharide

A

A type of sugar molecule from the food you eat that are absorbed from your gut into your blood and carried to the cells in your body for energy

32
Q

What is a disaccharide

A

A type of sugar molecule that needs to be broken down into monosaccharide components before it can be absorbed into the blood

33
Q

What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration

A

C6H12O6+6O2=6CO2+6H2O+36 ATP (glucose+oxygen converts to carbon dioxide+water+36 ATP)

34
Q

What are the three steps of aerobic cellular respiration

A

Glycolysis
Kreb’s Cycle
Electron Transport Chain

35
Q

Where does glycolysis take place

36
Q

What is used in glycolysis?

37
Q

What is the output of glycolysis

A

2 pyruvate

38
Q

How much atp is produced after glycolysis

39
Q

Where does the Kreb’s Cycle take place

A

Mitochondria

40
Q

What is the input of the Kreb’s Cycle

A

2 puruvate

41
Q

What is the output of the Kreb’s Cycle

42
Q

How much ATP is produced after the Kreb’s Cycle

43
Q

Where does ETC take place

A

Mitochondria

44
Q

What is the input of ETC

A

Hydrogen and electrons

45
Q

What is the output of the ETC

A

water and carbon dioxide

46
Q

How much ATP is produced after the ETC

47
Q

What are the two kinds of anaerobic cellular respiration

A

Lactic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentation

48
Q

What are the steps of lactic acid fermentation

A
  1. Glycolysis

2. Two pyruvates convert into lactic acid because of the lack of oxygen

49
Q

What are the steps of alcoholic fermentation

A
  1. Glycolysis

2. Two pyruvate turn into ethanol and carbon dioxide

50
Q

What happens during glycolysis

A

In the cytoplasm, glucose molecules are broken down into two pyruvate and two ATP are formed

51
Q

What happens during the Kreb’s Cycle?

A

In the mitochondria, the two pyruvate turn into CO2, hydrogen, and electrons, two ATP is produced

52
Q

What happens during the Electron Transport Chain

A

In the mitochondria, the hydrogen and electron are added to oxygen, these combine to make six water molecules and 32 ATP

53
Q

What is the goal of cellular respiration?

A

To break down food into energy
