Unit C -photosynthesis and cellular respiration Flashcards
What is chemiosmosis?
Mouvement of H that creates ATP by ATP synthase
Anaerobic?
Without oxygen
Aerobic?
With oxygen
What is oxidation?
LEO looses electrons due to oxidation makes NADP
What is Reduce?
GER gains electrons due to reducing
What is Glycolysis?
Glucose splitting into two pyruvate molecules
How many molecules of ATP required to activate energy
2
Glycolysis plus fermentation equals what?
Anaerobic respiration
Why do we do anaerobic respiration if it does not produce any ATP?
To provide NAD+ for glycolysis
Where does Pyruvate Oxidation and Krebs cycle happen?
Matrix
What does the electron transport chain allows us to do?
It allows cells to move protons from the matrix to the inter-membrane space
How many phosphates in ADP?
2
How many phosphates in ATP?
3
What is released and formed in the light dependent reaction?
Oxygen is released and ATP and NAPDH are formed
What is formed in the light independent reaction?
Glucose
What is photolysis?
Splitting of water molecule to release oxygen and bring electrons to the ETC
Where does the light dependent reaction happen?
Thylakoid
Where does Calvin cycle happen
Stroma
What does it mean when each pyruvates are oxidized?
Means it looses electrons
What is released from karen cycle?
CoA

Does photosynthesis store or release energy?
Stores energy
Does cellular respiration store or release energy
Releases it
