Photosynthesis-ATP-Cellular Respiration

Question 1

photosynthesis

Answer 1

solar energy is harvested chemical energy in a process that converts water & CO2 to glucose, O2 is released as a byproduct

Question 2

what is ATP and how is it produced

Answer 2

Adenosine Triphosphate transfers energy from food breakdown to cell functions
produced by: anaerobic glycolysis, krebs cycle, electron transport (oxidation)

Question 3

Amount of ATP produced by anaerobic glycolysis, aerobic glycolysis of one glucose molecule and lipolysis of one fatty acid

Answer 3

anaerobic glycolysis: 2 ATP
aerobic glycolysis: 2 (krebs) + up to 34 (e- transport chain) = 36 ATP
146 ATP from a triglyceride
