15
Q

Light reactions in a chloroplast.

A

Takes in light and water (inside the light reaction part it uses NADP+ and ADP)and converts it to ATP and NADPH. oxygen (O2) is a byproduct. (Light dependent)

16
Q

Calvin cycle

A

Light independent reaction, enzymes use energy molecules like carbon dioxide, NADPH, and ATP to synthesize glucose and other organic molecules (sugar). Puts back in NADP+ and ADP out puts sugar

17
Q

Why we need photosynthesis?

A
  • all heterotrophs depend on it.
  • we can’t make food energy on our own.
  • “but I don’t eat my veggies” your food eats veggies.
18
Q

Vegetarians are more efficient

It takes ___lb of corn to make ___lb of beef

19
Q

Chemical formula for cellular respiration

A

C6H12O6+6O2➡️6CO2+6H2O+ATP

Glucose +oxygen➡️ carbon dioxide+ water+Energy

20
Q

AROBIC energy harvesting of food molecules

A

Cellular respiration

21
Q

Like chloroplast _______ has a double membrane

22
Q

Occurs when there is little to no oxygen available

23
Q

These are high energy electron carriers.

A

NADH and FADH

24
Q

Input and output of citric cycle

A
Input= acidic acid, ADP+P, 3 NAD+, FAD 
Output= 2 CO2, 2 ATP, 3 NADH, FADH2
25
DNA➡️RNA➡️Protein | What does each of these ➡️ mean
1st one transcription | 2nd one translation
26
Makes a copy of the DNA, is the first in the RNA group, happens inside nucleons
MRNA
27
2nd in the RNA group, translates, brings appropriate amino acid to RRNA, happens in the rough ER
TRNA
28
A group of three nucleotides like T,A,C | Start_____ and stop ____ tell it when to start and stop transcribing
Codon
29
The DNA sequence where RNA start to attach is called the
Promoter
30
In bacteria the sequence signaling the end of transcription is the
Terminator
31
The stretch of DNA that is transcribed is called a
Transcription unit
32
``` DNA= A=_, C=_ RNA= A=_, C=_ ```
``` DNA= T, G RNA= U,G ```
33
The organizer slash lock of the RNA, it happens last in the rna group, allows it to bond to mrna
rRNA
34
Most abundant enzyme on earth, turns carbons into glucose
RuBisco
35
a sequence of three nucleotides in a region of transfer RNA that recognizes a complementary coding triplet of nucleotides in messenger RNA during translation by the ribosomes.
Anticodon
36
Polymerase stops transcription at the end in this
Bacteria
