Biology Respiration Flashcards
1
Q
ATP
A
Adenosine Triphosphate
Stored Energy
2
Q
ADP
A
Usable energy
3
Q
Phosphorylation
A
Chemical reactions that make ATP by adding P to ADP
4
Q
Photosynthesis
Formula
A
Sunlight(energy) + H20 + CO2 = O2 + C6H12O6
5
Q
Photosynthesis description
A
- Autotrophs
- Use energy from sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose
6
Q
Chloroplast
Description
A
- Contains DNA
- Contains ribosomes
- Make enzymes required for photosynthesis
- Contain chlorophyll
7
Q
Factors that affect photosynthesis
A
- color of light
- light intensity
- temperature
- CO2 availability
- water availability
8
Q
Cellular Respiration
A
Cells transfer energy from food molecules to ATP, the byproduct is water and carbon dioxide
9
Q
Glycolosis
A
ALL CELLULAR RESPIRATION HAS GLYCOLOSIS!!!
- Glucose is broken down into 2 pyruvate molecules
- Happens in the
cytoplasm
- ANAAEROBIC( don’t need oxygen)
- makes 2 ATP, 2 NADH, 2 pyruvate
10
Q
Krebs Cycle
A
- Aerobic (requires oxygen)
- 2 pyruvate diffuse into the matrix of the mitochondria.
- Then they are converted into 2
acetyl-CoA and 2 CO2 are released
-Yields 8 NADH, 2 FADH2, 2 ATP
11
Q
Aerobic
A
Requires O2
12
Q
One glucose molecule yields
A
36 ATP
13
Q
Electron transport chain
A
- happens in cristae of mitochondria
- electron acceptors in the chain accept NADH/FADH2 electrons. As electrons pass down a series of molecules to O2 : the O2 combines with H atoms to form H2O and ATP
- FADH MAKES 2 ATP
- NADH MAKES 3 ATP
14
Q
Chlorophyll
A
- Main pigment
- ABSORBS only red, blue, and violet light
Chlorophyll A- transforms photons to chemical energy
Chlorophyll B- traps other wavelengths + transfers it to chlorophyll a
15
Q
What color might not be shown in a prism
A
Green
