CELLULAR RESPERATION + PHOTOSYNTHESIS Flashcards
(12 cards)
What is the equation of photosynthesis?
6Co2+6H20=c6 H12 o6+ 6o2
equation of cellular respiration
c6H12 o6+ 6o2=6co2+6H20+ATP
What is the Glycolysis?
Glycolysis
anaerobic process (does not require oxygen)
takes place in cytoplasm
splits glucose into two three-carbon molecules
produces two ATP molecules from each glucose
Krebs cycle
Krebs cycle
takes place in mitochondrial matrix
breaks down pyruvate from glycolysis
makes a small amount of ATP, and LOTS of NADH
releases carbon dioxid
Electron transport chain
inner membrane of mitochondria
NADH energy transferred to electron transport chain
ATP produced
oxygen used, water made (waste product)
Breathing Liquid
Electron transport chain produces a large amount of ATP using energy of NADH
Alchohal fermantation
pyruvate and NADH enter fermentation
energy from NADH is used to split pyruvate into an alcohol and carbon dioxide
Light indendent
makes sugars
take place in stroma (remember: stroma is outside thylakoid, inside chloroplast)
needs carbon dioxide - Carbons “fixed” together into sugar
needs ATP & NADPH energy to build sugar
Light dependent
capture energy from sunlight
-Take place in thylakoid membrane
-Electron Transport Chain (ETC), which makes ATP & NADPH
-oxygen is produced as waste product (toxic to plants!!)
Photosyntheis definition
Photosynthesis consists of chemical reactions which produce sugars for storing chemical energy and making structures.
chemosyntheis defintion
similar to photosynthesis
uses chemical energy instead of light energy
what are Photosynthetic (& chemosynthetic)?
Photosynthetic (& chemosynthetic) organisms are producers
Producers turn light energy into chemical energy (sugars → )
