What are the differences between the “Cheesy Way to Measure Calories Lab” and cell respiration?
Lab (burning food) does not actually consume and break down food like cell respiration does, but instead burns. It takes place outside of a living organism and causes a chemical reaction to create energy w/o being a biological process in the body.
Where does the matter and energy come from that originally makes the food (peanuts, etc.)?
CarbonDioxide !!!
Why ATP?
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a manageable source of energy and powers many of our cellular processes
How is ATP made?
Cellular Respiration & Light Reaction process during photosynthesis
Why is the reaction “ADP + P → ATP” an energy requiring reaction?
The phosphates are negatively charged
Why is the reaction ATP → ADP + P an energy releasing reaction?
The separation of two negatively charged phosphates releases energy
Glycolysis occurs in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration: T or F
TRUE
What is the equation for cellular respiration?
C6 H12 O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O (+ ATP)
What is the equation for photosynthesis?
6 CO2 + 6 H2O → C6 H12 O6 + 6 O2
Glycolysis splits glucose into ..
PYRUVATE
The 2 Pyruvate from Glycolysis are transferred..
Into the mitochondria using active transport
When Pyruvate is in mitochondria, what happens to it?
It is oxidized and converted to 2 acetyl COA
What leaves as Pyruvate converts to 2acetyl COA?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2), NADH is produced
KREBS CYCLE!!! AHHH what happens?!?
COA is like bye gurl to Ms. Acetyl -> Ms. Acetyl (2c) moves on to Mr. Oxaloacetate (4c) -> leading them to SIT together and become #Citrate. BUT!!! 2 CO2 leave, converting #Citrate into only #Oxaloacetate. In this process of Mr. Oxaloacetate becoming single again, he lets out tears of Hydrogen ions, which 3NAD steal to become 3NADH and FAD to FADH. All his crying builds up to release ATP!! Then Mr. Ox goes back to find Ms. Acetyl (cycle repeats).
Describe the process in the Electron transport chain
Electron carriers are filled with Electrons dropped off by NADH (which leaves as NAD), and FADH, (which leaves as FAD).
Hydrogen ions from NADH and FADH enter the inner mitochondria membrane, where it builds up to a super high concentration.
As the electron nears the end of the chain, oxygen accepts it with a hydrogen ion and becomes water (product).
Hydrogen ions release thru ATP synthase so fast that phosphates bond with ADP to create ATP (product).
What are the NADHs and FADH2s for? - What do they do for the process of cell respiration?
Intermediate Energy Carriers (TAXXIIISSSS - cash cab #GETAWAY CAR), take hydrogen & electrons in Glycolysis and Kreb’s and transfers them so the energy can be used in ETC
When is carbon dioxide released? Why?
It is released in the Link Reaction (glycolysis -> Krebs transition). Also is released in Krebs cycle (2CO2). This is why CO2 is a product of Cell Respiration and humans breathe it out
How would Oxygen & Co2 levels change in a tank with more algae?
O2 levels INCREASE (due to respiration releasing oxy)
CO2 levels DECREASE (algae takes in more co2 when light is out.)
More fish in a tank would affect oxygen and carbon dioxide levels by..
Decreasing oxygen, Increasing carbon dioxide #Thanks Cellular Respiration!
More Algae in a tank would affect oxygen and carbon dioxide levels by..
IN DARK: oxygen decreases, Co2 increases
IN LIGHT: oxygen increases, Co2 decreases
#Thanks photosynthesis
The photosynthetic organ of the plant is..
The leaf, where ever chloroplast is found
An abundance of vascular tissue is found.. (in plants)
In the stems
These two reactions/cycles go hand in hand when photosynthesis is occuring
Light Reactions & Calvin Cycle
What is the relationship between cell respiration and photosynthesis?
Cell respiration produces products needed for photosynthesis and vice versa.
Products in question:
cell resp - carbon dioxide + water
photosynthesis - glucose + oxygen
