What is typical structure of chloroplast?
chloroplast has a double membrane around its
exterior and an interior that is filled with hundreds
of flattened and stacked membranes called_____ and stacks are organized
into piles called _____. It is within these
membranes, that pigments and enzymes
participate in photosynthesis
thylakoids and grana
How many mitochondria is present in a cell?
depending on the
type of cell, we have between 50 to over a million
mitochondria present in a cell
How many membranes mitochondria have?
Two
What is the name of inner membrane of mitochondria?
inner membrane is connected
to a series of sac-like structures called cristae
Who proposed that the theory that eukaryotic cells originated as communities of interacting entities that are joined together
In 1981, Dr. Lynn Margulis
Does both mitochondria and chloroplasts contain
their own circular genomes?
YES and ITS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW
chloroplast contains all the_____ necessary
for photosynthesis
enzymes
What are the reactant of photosynthesis and products?
presence of sunlight,
carbon dioxide and water, the primary chemical
energy source that is produced are
carbohydrates such as glucose. Oxygen is also
produced as a by-product
In photosynthesis light energy Is transferred in form of what?
light energy is
transformed into chemical energy in the form of
ATP and NADPH
ATP and NADPH enters the Calvin Cycle to do what?
NADPH and
ATP are used to drive the reduction of
atmospheric carbon dioxide into carbohydrates
the light reactions and the
Calvin cycle to produce not only sugar, but also
the major source of ____
oxygen
carbohydrates are formed by the polymerization
of monosaccharides through ______ bonds to
form complex sugars
glycosidic
Name all three monosaccrdies?
glucose, fructose and
galactose
Name three disaccrides
lactose, sucrose, maltose
Special proteins called enzymes are able to catalyze (or speed up) the condensation reaction between specific ____ groups of certain monosaccharides to produce disaccharides
Usually, the reaction occurs between
the OH group on carbon 1 of one molecule and
carbon __ of another monosaccharide to give
either the alpha1-4 glycosidic linkage or beta1-4 glycosidic linkage
hydroxyl, 4
