21
Q
Which of the following organisms do not carry out photosynthesis?
Plants
Algae

Animals
22
Q

Which of the following statements about glucose is correct?
Glucose is a less stable carbon compound than carbon dioxide is
Glucose is a more stable carbon compound than carbon dioxide is
Glucose is produced during cellular respiration
Glucose is not a carbon compound

A

Glucose is a less stable carbon compound than carbon dioxide is

23
Q
ATP is composed of a nitrogenous base, a sugar, and:
One phosphate group
Two phosphate groups
Three phosphate groups
Four phosphate groups
A

Three phosphate groups

24
``` Chloroplasts : photosynthesis :: Mitochondria : cellular respiration Solar energy : cellular respiration Metabolism : carbon Oxygen : carbon dioxide ```
Mitochondria : cellular respiration
25
``` Photosynthesis : oxygen :: Oxygen : carbon dioxide Cellular respiration : carbon dioxide Cellular respiration : oxygen Cellular respiration : enzymes ```
Cellular respiration : carbon dioxide
26
When cells break down food molecules, energy is: Released quickly Released entirely as body heat into the environment Stored temporarily in ATP molecules Stored permanently in ATP molecules
Stored temporarily in ATP molecules
27
ATP is called a cell's energy "currency" because: ATP catalyzes all metabolic reactions ATP allows one organelle to be exchanged for another between cells Glucose is made of ATP ATP can be "made" in one place and "spent" or used in another
ATP can be "made" in one place and "spent" or used in another
28
When a phosphate group is removed from an ATP molecule: A substantial amount of energy is released An enzyme is formed Energy is stored A substantial amount of energy is used
A substantial amount of energy is released
29
``` The series of molecules that cause protons to build up on one side of a membrane is a(n): ATP synthase NADH ADP electron transport chain ```
Electron transport chain
30
``` The space inside the inner membrane of a chloroplast is called the: Thylakoid Reaction center Pigment Stroma ```
Stroma
31
Chlorophyll is green because: It absorbs green wavelengths of light It absorbs blue and yellow wavelengths, which make green It reflects green wavelengths of light Of an optical illusion caused by transmitted light
It reflects green wavelengths of light
32
``` The major atmospheric by-product of photosynthesis is: Nitrogen Carbon dioxide Water Oxygen ```
Oxygen
33
``` Because of photosynthesis: The atmosphere is rich in oxygen gas Animals can get energy directly from the sun Plants produce carbon dioxide Water is constantly being produced ```
The atmosphere is rich in oxygen gas
34
``` The source of oxygen produced during photosynthesis is: Carbon dioxide Water The air Glucose ```
Water, the air
35
While one type of electron transport chain of photosynthesis is used to form molecules of ATP, a second electron transport chain is used To form molecules of NADPH To move molecules to another ion pump To produce water As a fuel for forming another chlorophyll molecule
To form molecules of NADPH
36
Photosynthesis:
``` Food accumulated Energy from sun stored in glucose Co2 taken in Oxygen given off Produces glucose from PGAL Goes on only in light Occurs only in presence of chlorophyll ```
37
Cellular respiration/
``` Food broken down Energy of glucose released Co2 given off Oxygen taken in Produces co2 and h2o Goes on day and night Occurs in all living cells ```
