34
How much energy is released during aerobic cellular respiration?
30-32 ATP
35
Compare the location of aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration
Aerobic cellular respiration occurs in the cytosol and mitochondria whereas anaerobic cellular respiration occurs in the cytosol

Ethanol
38
How much energy is released during anaerobic cellular respiration?
2 ATP
39
What are the advantages and disadvantages of aerobic cellular respiration?
Advantage: produces lots of energy Disadvantage: Slower ATP production
40
What are the advantages and disadvantages of anaerobic cellular respiration?
Advantage: Rapid ATP production Disadvantage: does not produce much ATP / can lead to cramping
41
What is the word equation for photosynthesis?
42
Draw and label a mitochondrion
43
Draw and label a chloroplast
44
Where does the light independent reaction of photosynthesis occur?
stroma of a chloroplast
45
What occurs during the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis?
Light is used to split water (input) into hydrogen ions and electrons
46
What are the inputs of the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis?
Water, light
47
What is produced in the light dependent reaction of photosynthesis?
Oxygen, NADPH
48
What is NADH?
A co-enzyme used to carry hydrogen ions and electrons from glycolysis and Krebs cycle to the electron transport chain
49
What is NADPH?
A co-enzyme used to carry hydrogen ions and electrons from the light dependent reaction to the light independent reaction
50
What occurs during the light independent reaction of photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide gains hydrogen ions and electrons to form glucose using the enzyme Rubisco
51
What are the inputs of the light independent reaction of photosynthesis?
carbon dioxide, NADPH
52
What is produced in the light independent reaction of photosynthesis?
glucose
53
What traps light energy in a chloroplast?
Pigments, such as chlorophyll or accessory pigments such as carotenoids
54
Which light colour is best for photosynthesis?
White (all wavelengths of light), then red and blue
55
Which light colour is worst for photosynthesis?
Green (it is reflected, not absorbed)
56
What are some possible limiting factors of photosynthesis?
carbon dioxide, light energy, chlorophyll
57
Why does more light lead to more photosynthesis?
↑ light = ↑ more water split in light dependent reaction = ↑ hydrogen being carried by NADPH = ↑ carbon dioxide being turned into glucose = ↑ rate of photosynthesis
