Cell Energy Part 2 Flashcards
(28 cards)
Photosynthesis
2 phase series of reactions that converts light energy into chemical energy
Photosynthesis: Major atmospheric waste product?
Oxygen
Photosynthesis: where does the oxygen come from?
The splitting of the water molecule
Photosynthesis: what are the 3 factors that influence the rate of photosynthesis?
Light intensity, temperature, and amount of carbon dioxide
Photosynthesis: What are the two products of the light reactions(stage 1 and ETC) that are needed by Calvin Cycle
NADPH and ATP
Photosynthesis: What are the two end products?
Oxygen and glucose
Photosynthesis: Pigment
Light absorbing molecules
Cellular Respiration
Process used by all organisms to breakdown glucose into ATP
Cellular Respiration: what element do cells need to produce large numbers of ATP?
Oxygen
Cellular Respiration: if there isn’t any oxygen, what process is going to follow glycolysis instead of the Krebs Cycle?
Fermentation
Cellular Respiration: compare and contrast aerobic and anaerobic respiration
Aerobic requires oxygen, anaerobic doesn’t; aerobic respiration produces more cellular energy
Glycolysis
Breakdown of glucose
Glycolysis: Anaerobic or Aerobic?
Anaerobic
Glycolysis: What is a glucose converted into?
Pyruvates
Glycolysis: Where does it take place?
Cytoplasm
Glycolysis: how many ATPs are produced
2
Glycolysis: How many pyruvates
2
Krebs: Aerobic or Anaerobic
Aerobic
Krebs: where does it take place
Mitochondria
Krebs: What are the products?
NADH, FADH2, CO2, ATP
ETC: where does it take place?
Mitochondria
How many ATPs are produced?
34
ETC: what happened to the electrons after they have supplied the energy needed to make ATP?
Combine with H+ and O2 to form water
Fermentation
Breakdowns organic compounds when oxygen is absent
