Q

What is pinocytosis?

A

Also known as self drinking. Small area of cell membrane dimple in word and surround the interstitial fluid, dimple them buds off into the cytosol as a vesicles.

Q

What is receptor meditated Endocytosis?

A

Specific molecules or complexes of molecules that cannot die fuse or pass-through channels in the cell membrane are taken up by cells. Require specialized receptor proteins located on plasma membrane in depressions called coded pits.

Q

What is phagocytosis?

A

Process where cells transport large materials into the cell. Occurs when part of the cell membrane extends over the material and then fuses around it to form a vesicle called a food vacuole.

18
Q

What two stages does photosynthesis occur in?

A

Light dependent and light independent

19
Q

What is light dependent?

A

Occurs in the thylakoid and generates ATP and NADPH.

20
Q

What is light independent?

A

Also called the Calvin Benson cycle, occurs in the stroma and produces glucose.

21
Q

What is oxidation?

A

An atom or molecule loses an electron.

22
Q

What is reduction?

A

An atom or molecule gains an electron

23
Q

What is a photo system?

A

Cluster of light absorbing pigment molecules within thylakoid membrane‘s in chloroplasts

24
Q

What is Chemiosmosis?

A

Process through which ATP is generated across the inner membrane of mitochondria and the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts. Couples the movement of hydrogen ions down a concentration gradient to the synthesis of ATP from ADP and phosphate.

25
Q

Where does light independent reactions take place?

A

In the stroma of the chloroplast

26
Q

Which reaction between light dependent and light independent do not require light?

A

Light independent reactions

27
Q

What are the steps and light independent reactions?

A

Step 1: carbon dioxide fixation,
Step2: reduction of ATP and NADPH,
Step 3: replacement of ribulose biphosphate (RuBP)

28
Q

Describe the process of the light independent reactions (Calvin Benson cycle)?

A

Carbon from the atmosphere combines with RuBP to from a unstable 6C compound.
Stables and Splits into 12 3C compounds (PGAL).
2 PGAL molecules leave chloroplast to make glucose.

29
Q

What is aerobic cellular respiration?

A

Respiration carried out using oxygen to produce ATP

30
Q

What are the reactants of cellular respiration?

A

Glucose and oxygen

31
Q

What are the products are cellular respiration?

A

Carbon dioxide water and energy

32
Q

What is the fluid in the mitochondria called?

A

The matrix

33
Q

What is glycolysis?

A

one glucose Molecule is broken down to form two Pyruvate molecules As well as a small amount of ATP.

34
Q

What is the Krebs cycle?

A

A series of reactions that breakdown the end products of glycolysis, producing carbon dioxide and generating a large amount of ATP.

35
Q

What is the electron transport system?

A

In the mitochondria and chloroplasts, a system of electron carrying molecules that transfer electrons to generate a hydrogen ion gradient to produce ATP

36
Q

Give chemiosmosis is also known as what?

A

Oxidative phosphorylation

37
Q

If oxygen isn’t present where does the pyruvate from glycolysis go?

A

Originally goes to Krebs cycle but if there is not a sufficient amount of oxygen Proceeds to fermentation

38
Q

What is anaerobic respiration?

A

Respiration carried out without using oxygen to produce ATP

39
Q

What is fermentation?

A

Carbohydrates are anaerobically broken down into simpler components, includes glycolysis and is widely occurring in yeast and bacteria.

40
Q

What is lactate fermentation?

A

NADPH is used to convert pyruvate to lactate, occurs during strenuous activities and muscle cells.

41
Q

What is ethanol fermentation?

A

Convert pyruvate to ethanol and carbon dioxide with low oxygen conditions inhibit aerobic respiration

42
Q

Where does aerobic respiration occur?

A

In the mitochondria

43
Q

Where does an aerobic respiration occur?

A

In the cytoplasm
