Q

What kind of organisms does Cellular Respiration happen in?

A

All living things

23
Q

What process does cellular respiration always begin with?

24
Q

Where in the cell does Cellular Respiration take place?

25
What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic- needs oxygen/uses oxygen Anaerobic-Does not need oxygen
26
Kreb's Cycle Is this an Aerobic or Anaerobic process?
Aerobic meaning it needs oxygen
27
What organelle does the Kreb Cycle take place.
Mitochondria
28
What are the reactants that are needed for the Kreb Cycle to occur?
Glucose and pyruvates
29
What are the products that are created at the end of the Kreb Cycle
Co2 and ATP
30
What are the products that are created at the end of the light dependent cycle?
ATP,NADPH, O2
31
Calvin Cycle What are the reactants that are needed for this reaction to happen? What are the products that are created at the end of this reaction?
ATP, NADPH, C02 Glucose, 02
32
2 types of energy are essential products of photosynthesis. What are they?
ATP and NADPH
33
What is the importance of photosynthesis?
ToAutotrophs cannot consume food so they go through Photosynthesis (light dependent & Calvin) to create the reactants for cellular respiration ↳ glucose & O2
34
Photosynthesis takes place in what organelle? What gives this organelle its pigment/color?
Chloroplast Chlorophyll
35
Lock in
Lock in
36
Provide the definition of photosynthesis in your own words.
Process in autotrophs that allows for food(glucose) to be made.
37
What is the energy source that STARTS photosynthesis?
Sunlight
38
What is the equation for photosynthesis?
6CO2 +6H20 +light = C6H1206 + 602
39
Light Dependent Reactions What are the reactants that are needed for this reaction to happen?
H20, light
40
Define a Decomposer
Microscopic organism that breaks down dead or decaying organisms
41
What is a reactant?
Materials/Substances that go into a reaction
42
What is a product?
Material/Substance that comes out of a chemical reaction
43
What happens between a reactant and product?
Reactant then a chemical reaction happens then you get a product.
44
Describe Commensalism
One Organisms benefits where the other stays the same.
45
Describe Mutualism
Both Organism benefit
46
Describe Parasitism
One organism benefits positively while the other benefits negatively
47
Describe Predator/Prey
Bird and the worm
48
What is a heterotroph?
Can’t make its own food/Consumes other organisms for food
49
Autotroph
Makes its own food
50
Electron Transport Chain Is this an Aerobic or Anaerobic process? What does this mean? What organelle does this take place in? What are the reactants that are needed for this process to happen? What are the products that are created at the end of this process?
Aerobic needs oxygen Mitochondria 02 and glucose(electrons) H20 and ATP
51
Lactic Acid Fermentation Is this an Aerobic or Anaerobic process? What does this mean? What kind of organism does this process happen in? What are the reactants that are needed for this process to happen? What are the products that are created at the end of this process?
Anaerobic no oxygen Animals 02 and glucose H20 and C02
52
Alcoholic Fermentation Is this an Aerobic or Anaerobic process? What does this mean? What kind of organism does this process happen in? What are the reactants that are needed for this process to happen? What are the products that are created at the end of this process?
Anaerobic no oxygen Plants and Yeast 02 and Glucose H20 and C02
53
How do Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration connect?
the carbon dioxide released in cellular respiration is a reactant in photosynthesis.
