Unit test Pt. 2 Flashcards
Cellular Respiration
(Sugar) C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy (ATP)
Aerobic
With Oxygen
Anaerobic
Without water
electron transport system
cristae of mitochondria
citric acid cycle
AKA krebs cycle, matrix of mitochondria, 2ATP
when we can’t keep oxygen respiration we turn it to what?
Fermentation
anaerobic fermentation of 1 glucose molecule produces what?
2 ATP
the cristae of mitochondria has how many ATP
32-34
how many ATP are used in the phases of glucose breakdowns
2 ATP
what are the phases of glucose breakdown (2***)
glycolysis -breaks down glucose to produce 2 pyruvates Transition RX+N - 2x clurose 1x pyruvates (matrix of mitochondria)
how many ATP is 1 Glucose?
36-38ATP
chemical structure for photosynthesis
6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2
what type of wavelength is the smallest?
Gamma ray
what type of wavelength is the longest?
Radio waves
what is white/visible light?
sliver that we can see
7 different colors that make up visible light
ROYGBIV
describe red light
it has the longest wave length but the lowest energy content
describe violet light
it has the shortest wavelength but the highest energy content
why do we see the colors we see?
wavelengths are reflected back and others are absorbed
why do leaves change colors in the fall?
chlorophyll breaks down and allows other pigments that have been there year round to show through
what do cuticles do on a leaf
theyre a waxy substance that makes leaves waterproof
stomata does what in a leaf?
pores that allow gas exchange because cuticles block it. Stomatas have guard cells. (they open and close)
where is the site of photosynthesis
mesophyll
in photosynthesis list what the Organism, Organ, and Organelle are
Plant, Leaf (mesophyll), chloroplasts
