Q

The light that is not absorbed by a pigment is reflected

A

visible light that can be observed as the color of the pigment

24
Q

Photosynthesis consists of two pathways, which are known as the

A

light-dependent and light-independent reactions and occur at distinct locations within chloroplasts

25
Q

These organelles contain three membranes:

A

outer membrane, inner membrane, and the innermost thylakoid membrane

26
Q

What does the innermost thylakoid membrane do

A

forms long, disc-shaped folds within the chloroplast

27
Q

The light-dependent reactions start when the energy in sunlight

A

excites the electrons of chlorophyll pigments that are embedded within the thylakoid membrane

28
Q

These high-energy electrons are then passed from one electron carrier molecule to another within the thylakoid membrane, collectively known as the

A

electron transport chain

29
Q

Each transfer within the electron transport chain takes the electron to a ___ ___, releasing ___

A

lower state, energy

30
Q

energy released is harnessed to synthesize small, energy-rich molecules such as

A

ATP OR NADPH

31
Q

The lost electron of the chlorophyll is replaced through

A

hydrolosis

32
Q

Define hydrolosis

A

means water splitting

33
Q

CO2 flows from one reservoir to another at a relatively constant pace

A

Carbon sequestration

34
Q

Changes in the CO2 flow rate can shift the

A

balance of it among resevoirs

35
Q

fundamental to all living organisms and required for growth and development

A

cell division

36
Q

cell division allows organisms to

A

transfer genetic material to their offspring

37
Q

For a unicellular organism, cellular division generates

A

a completely new organism

38
Q

For multicellular organisms, cellular division produces

A

new cells for the general development of the overall organism

39
Q

Reproduction of multicellular organisms requires

A

cell division to create reproductive cells

40
Q

About 78% of a cell’s life is spent in

A

interphase

41
Q

Interphase itself contains three subphases

A

Gap 1, S Phase, Gap 2

42
Q

During G1, cells

A

actively grow

43
Q

During S Phase the cell

A

replicates its entire genome

44
Q

In the Gap 2 Phase,

A

all the necessary proteins for cell division are synthesized

45
Q

Somatic or non-reproductive cells produce ___ ___ via ___ ___

A

daughter cells, mitotic divison

46
Q

Mitosis is the nuclear division and consists of five stages:

A

prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase

47
Q

During prophase

A

duplicated DNA molecules condense into tightly-packed chromosomes, while microtubules form spindles

48
Q

The nuclear envelope dissolves in

A

prometaphase

49
Q

. During metaphase, chromosomes

A

that are connected to spindles line up along the equator of the cells

50
Q

During anaphase, sister chromatids are

A

pulled to the opposite pole of the cell

51
Q

Finally, during telophase, new nuclear envelopes

A

are formed around both groups of chromosomes

52
Q

After nuclear division is completed, cytoplasm around each nucleus

A

separates from one another via cytokinesis, resulting in two identical daughter cells

53
Q

what process is specific to reproductive cells

A

meiosis

54
Q

Meiosis produces

A

4 daughter cells each with only half the genetic content of the parent cell

55
Q

External regulation assures the

A

necessity of the division
