Week 3: Cellular energy and population ecology Flashcards
Carbonate buffer system equation
H2O + CO2 ——->(H+) + HCO3-
What happens if you add more H+
Reduces HCO3-, increases H2O and CO2
What happens of you add CO2
Reduces H2O, increases H+ and HCO3-
What happens if you subtract H+
Increases HCO3-, reduces H2O and CO2
What happens if you subtract CO2
Increases H2O, reduces H+ and HCO3-
ATP(Adenosine triphosphate)
primary energy molecule in the cell
Photosynthesis
6CO2 + 6H2O +light —–> C6 H12 O6 +6O2
Glycolysis and cellular respiration
C6 H12 O6 —–> 6CO2 +6H2O +36ATP
Chloroplast
site of 1st two parts of photosynthesis
Cytosol
glycolysis and last part of photosynthesis happens here
Mitochondrion
site of the two parts of cellular respiration
Glycolysis (step 1)
C6 H12 O6 —–> 2(C3 H4 O3) + 2ATP
Cellular respiration
2(C3 H4 O3) +6O2 ——> 6CO2 +6H2O +34 ATP
What is extra glucose(energy) stored as
starch
What is extra glucose (energy) used for structure as
cellulose
