Q

The primary role of oxygen in cellular respiration is to

A

Act as in a scepter for electrons and hydrogen, forming water

22
Q

Inside an active mitochondrion, most electrons flow which pathway?

A

Citric acid cycle –> NADH –> electron transport chain –> oxygen

23
Q

Approximately what percentage of the energy of glucose is transferred to stored in ATP as a result of the complete oxidation of glucose to CO2 and water in cellular respiration?

24
Q

Fermentation takes place in the

A

Mitochondrial inner

25
Muscle cells in oxygen deprivation convert pyruvate to___, and in this step gain___
Lactate; NAD+
26
In the absence of oxygen, yeast cells can obtain energy by fermentation, resulting in the production of
ATP, CO2, and ethanol
27
In alcohol fermentation, NAD+ is regenerated from NADH during the
Reduction of acetylaldehyde to ethanol
28
The final electron The scepter of the electron transport chain that functions in oxidative phosphorylation is
Oxygen
29
Which of the following are products of the light reactions of photosynthesis that are utilized in the Calvin cycle
ATP and NADPH
30
Where does the Calvin cycle take place?
Stroma of the chloroplast
31
The Reaction Center, Chlorophyll of photosystem one is known as P 700 because
The pigment is best at absorbing light with a wavelength of 700nm
32
What are the products of noncyclic phosphorylation?
ATP and NADPH
33
What does cyclic electron flow in the chloroplast produce
A, B, and C
34
Where do the enzymatic reactions of Calvin cycle take place?
Stroma of the chloroplast
35
What is the primary function of the cell cycle?
Synthesize simple sugars from carbon dioxide
36
Which of the following is required in the Calvin
A, B, and C
37
One carbon dioxide molecule reacts in each turn of the Calvin cycle. How many turns of the cycle are required for the synthesis of one glucose molecule?
6
38
The plant that Inc. CO2 first into ocaloacetate can be best characterized as a
C4 plants
39
CAM Plants keep stomata closed in daytime, thus reducing loss of water. They can do this because they
Fix CO2 into organic acids during the night
40
C4 plants differ from C3 and CAM Plants in that C4 plants
Transfer fixed carbon dioxide to cells in which the Calvin cycle occurs
41
Synthesis of ATP by the chemiosmotic mechanism
Both photosynthesis and respiration
42

Respiration
43
Reduction of NADP+
Photosynthesis
44
