Jeopardy questions Flashcards
In the following reaction, this reactant is being oxidized
C6H12O6 + 6 O2 -> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + energy
glucose
During one turn of the citric acid cycle, this many NAD+ are reduced to NADH
three
This enzyme uses the exergonic flow of H+ to drive the phosphorylation of ADP into ATP during chemiosmosis in both cellular respiration and the light reaction of photosynthesis
ATP synthase
Yeast and many bacteria are this type of anaerobes that can survive using either fermentation or cellular respiration
facultative anaerobes
this enzyme concerts DHAP into G3P so that it can be used to produce pyruvate in the energy payoff phase
isomerase
These organisms are directly or indirectly nourished via photosynthesis.
almost the entire living world
When excited electrons fall back to the ground state photons are given off causing this.
fluorescence
During the light reaction in photosynthesis, the energy from light excites P680 or P700, special molecules of this
chlorophyll
this process in the Calvin cycle is catalyzed by the enzyme Ribulose 1, 5-biphosphate carboxylase, or RuBisCo
carbon fixation
Carbon enters the Calvin cycle as CO2 and leaves as this, a compound also produced during glycolysis
Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P)
This is the totality of an organism’s reactions that transform matter and energy
metabolism
a substance that binds to an enzyme at the active site, competing with the substrate, is called this
competitive inhibitor
ATP drives endergonic reactions by this process, the transferring phosphate to another molecule
phosphorylation
a spontaneous, exergonic reaction that results in a negative change in free energy is part of this type of metabolic pathway
catabolic
the statement “energy cannot be created or destroyed, but it can be transferred or transformed” refers to the first law of thermodynamics or this principle
the conservation of energy
Rough ER is different from smooth ER in that its surface is studded with these
ribosomes
In the nucleus, DNA is organized into discrete linear units called this
chromosomes
the Golgi Apparatus consists of flattened membranous sacs called this
cisternae
Lysosomes use enzymes to recycle the cell’s own organelles and macromolecules via this process
authophagy
Located outside the animal cell, this functions for support, adhesions, movement, and the regulation of the cell
extracellular matrix
This molecule, when found in the animal cell membrane, functions to maintain membrane fluidity at different temperatures
cholesterol
this process, the tendency for molecules to spread out evenly into available space, allows substances to be transported passively across cell membranes
diffusion
this type of transport protein may be used by the cell for facilitated diffusion or active transport
carrier protein
if placed in a solution with this type of tonicity, plant cells become turgid, but animal cells lyse
hypotonic
