cactus
35
What is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain?
oxygen
36
What are the functions of the plasma membrane proteins?
transport, receptors, enzymatic activity, cell recognition, and intercellular joining
37
What forms in the light dependent reactions?
ATP, NADPH, and oxygen
38
How many ATPs are produced at the end of cellular respiration?
30-32 ATPs
39
Can osmosis can be defined as the movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane in the direction where the solutes are in the greatest concentration?
YES
40
What are the functions of membrane proteins?
transport, enzymes, receptors, support
41
What are the 2 stages of photosynthesis?
light-dependent and Calvin cycle
42
Why is the plasma membrane considered to be selectively permeable?
It selectively allows certain molecules
43
What happens during chemiomosis?
ATP is produced as protons slow back across a membrane through ATP synthase, driven by s proton gradient
44
How does oxygen cross the plasma membrane (process)?
passive diffusion
45
What part of the leaf allows carbon dioxide to enter and oxygen to escape?
stomata
45
Where does photosynthesis take place in the leaf?
chloroplasts of the mesophyll tissue
46
What happens to the potential energy in the product of the following reaction; Z----> Y + V + HEAT
The potential energy decreases
47
In what cellular process do fatty acid travel through the membrane?
passive diffusion
48
What type of reactions do enzymes catalyze?
anabolic, and catabolic reactions
49
When does ATP release energy?
when the bond between the second and third phosphate groups is broken during hydrolysis
50
Why is the plasma membrane often described as the fluid mosaic model?
due to the flexible structure and the diverse proteins embedded in the lipid bilayer
51
When can a solute be moved against the gradient into the cell?
active transport, requires energy
52
What process is used when a white blood cell engulfs a bacterium?
phagocytosis
52
What happens to electrons during an oxidation reaction and during a reduction reaction?
In an oxidation reaction, electrons are lost by a substance. In a reduction reaction, electrons are gained by a substance.
