Q

How genotypes affect phenotype

A

Deciding the proteins that are synthesize, which intern affect the organism structure and function
EX the presence of a dominant allele for a gene role result in dominant trait being expressed in the phenotype recessive allele only fourth alleles are recessive

Q

Law of segregation

A

Each organism has two alleles for each gene, which separate during gamete formation or spring, inherits one allele from each parent

Q

ATP is the

A

The primary energy carrier in cells

21
Q

Catabolic reaction or exergonic reaction

A

Reactions that breakdown molecules and release energy (EX cellular respiration)

22
Q

Anabolic reaction or endogenic reaction

A

Reaction that builds molecules and requires energy (EX protein synthesis, protein synthesis)

23
Q

ATP consist of

A

adenine, a ribose (a sugar), and three phosphate groups

24
Q

ATP cycle involves

A

The hydrolysis is ATP to ADP+Pi ( exergonic energy released)
The synthesis of ATP from ATP+Pi (endergonic energy is consumed)

25
First law of Thermodynamics
Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed
26
Second law of thermodynamics
Entropy (disorder) increases in a system energy transformations are not 100% efficient
27
Electron transport chain
A series of protein embedded in the inner mitochondrial membrane that transfers, electrons and pumps proteins to create a protein gradient
28
Chemiosmosis
The process of using a protein gradient to drive ATP synthesis
29
Redox
Refers to the reduction (gain of electrons) and oxidation (loss of electrons) of molecules
30
NADH and FADH2
Carry high-energy electrons from catabolic reaction to the RTC, where they are transferred through proteins, ultimately leading to the production of ATP
31
Proton gradient
Created by ETC powers by ATP synthase which produces ATP by phosphorylating ADP
32
Oxygen’s Role in cellular respiration
Acts as the final electron acceptor in the ECT, forming water as a byproduct
33
Biomolecule breakdown
Carbohydrates lipids and proteins are broken down into smaller molecules and provide electrons for ETC
34
What are the key stages of anaerobic respiration?
Glycolysis, pyruvate, oxidation, citric acid cycle, electron transport, chain, and chemiosmosis
35
Glycolysis in aerobic respiration
Breakdown of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate generating two ATP and 2 NADH
36
Pyruvate oxidation in aerobic respiration
Pruit is converted into Acetyl-CoA, producing CO2 in NADH
37
Citric acid cycle in aerobic respiration
Acetyl- CoA is further oxidized producing CO2 ATP NADH and FADH2
38
Electron transport, chain and chemiosmosis in aerobic respiration
Produces ATP through oxidative phosphorylation
39
Fermentation
Occurs when oxygen is absent and produces to ATP (less efficient than aerobic respiration) it converts, pyruvate, antigalactic acid or ethanol
40
Fermentation
Occurs when oxygen is absent and produces to ATP (less efficient than aerobic respiration) it converts, pyruvate, antigalactic acid or ethanol
41
Chlorophyll
The pigment in plants that absorbs light energy for photosynthesis
42
Light dependent reaction
The first stage of photosynthesis were light energy is used to make ATP and NADPH
43
Calvin cycle
The second stage of photosynthesis where ATP and NADPH are used to fix carbon and produce glucose and CO2
44
45
Biomass
Plants originate from the conversion of CO2 and organic molecules during the Calvin cycle
46
Respiration
Produces ATP, consumes oxygen, releases CO2
47
Photosynthesis
Uses light energy to produce glucose, consume CO2 release oxygen
48
Role in carbon cycle
Photosynthesis and respiration regulate levels of CO2 in the atmosphere
49
Chlorophyll
The pigment in plants that absorbs light energy for photosynthesis
