Q

Commitment Reaction of Glycolysis

A

First stage
Hexokinase transfers a phosphate group from ATP to glucose, making glucose 6-phosphate. The charge on phosphate traps sugar in cell

2) complex 1/2 transfer e- to Q
3) Q transfers e- to complex 3
4) complex 3 transfers e- to cyt c
5) cyc c transfers e- to complex 4
6) complex 4 transfers e- to O2

Q

How does DNP disturb cellular respiration

A

DNP pokes holes in cell membrane letting hydrogen ions flow freely disrupting the ion concentration so ATP synthase can’t function

Q

What is the purpose of fermentation

A

to make ATP without oxygen

20
Q

Carbs in cellular respiration

A

carbs are sugars that can be broken down by glycoisis

21
Q

Proteins in Cellular respiration

A

Broken down to AA’s and used to to make enzymes

22
Q

Lipids in cellular respiration

A

beta oxidation breaks the fatty acids down to two-carbon fragments that enter citric acid cycle (fats better fuel than carbs)

23
Q

Equation of photosynthesis

A

6CO2+6H20+Light Energy–>C6H12O6+602

24
Q

Primary pigment in photosynthesis

A

Chlorophyll a

25
Secondary photosynthetic pigments
chlorophyll b-broden spectrum used for photosynthesis | carotenoids-accesory pigments absorb excessive light that would damage chlorophyll
26
Light Dependent Reactions
- in thylakoids - split H20 - reduce e- acceptor NAD+-->NADH
27
Dark dependent reactions
Calvin cycle
28
Where do light depend reactions occur?
In the thylakoids
29
What is the main purpose of light dependent reactions?
They are the first stage of photosynthesis and they convert light energy to chemical energy in NADPH AND ATP(used in calvin cycle to file and assemble sugar molecules)
30
What are the key molecules in light dependent reactions?
Photosystem 1 and 2 | -they have reaction center with special chlorophyll A molecules
31
Photolysis
The splitting of water. Occurs in geranium of chloroplast the H20 is oxidized (H removed) and energy is gained in photolysis thats required in calvin cycle
32
What is the final election accepts in PS1 and PS2
NAD+ being reduced to NADHP
33
What are the products of the light dependent reactions?
NADH and ATP
34
Where are the products of the light dependent reactions used?
Nah and ATP reduce carbo dioxide and cover it into 3-phosphagylcerate
35
Light independent reactions
carbon fixation stage
36
Where does calvin cycle occur
in storm of chloroplast
37
What is purpose of Calvin cycle
to take energy from photo system 1 and fix carbon (carbon fixation is adding to carbon chain)
38
Products of Calvin Cycle
2 glyeraldehyde-2-phosphate (G3P), 2ADP and 2NADP+
39
what is the initial acceptor of carbon in the calvin cycle
carbon for CO2 enters cycle and combines with rubles biphosphate (RuBP)
40
What are the 3 phases of the Clavin Cycle?
1. fixation 2. reduction 3. regeneration
41
During what stages does substrate level phosphorilaton occur
glycolysis and krebs cycle
42
During what stage does oxidative phosphorilaton occur
ETC
43
What process in your cells produce the CO2 you exhale
Krebs cycle and connection point
44
If complex IV (ETC) were nonfunctional could chemisomosis produce any ATP and if so how would rate of synthesis be different
without complex 4 you lose the protein complex that translocates the hydrogen ions to make proton motor force. Rate of synthesis would slow down and eventually taper off.
45
Light dependent reactions of photosynthesis supply calvin cycle with what reactants?
ATP and NADPH
46
If dark reactions of photosynthesis inhibited will the process of photosynthesis produce ATP?
Yes, the light dependent reactions produce ATP
