Q

How is the ATP cycle like a Jack-in-the-Box?

A

The ATP cycle is like a Jack-in-the-Box because the ATP goes in the box and then the breaks so it comes out of box. when the jack pops out energy is released. to make the jack go in the box we had potential energy,adding a phosphate to ADP

Q

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

Study These Flashcards
A

6CO2 +6 H2O light energy is transferred to C6H12O6 + 6O2

24
What are the things needed for photosynthesis and produced f by photosynthesis
Needed - light dependent reactions - light independent reactions - sunlight - H2O - CO2 Produced - ATP - NAD P+ - NADPH
25
Define photosystems
Photosystems are clusters of chlorophyll and proteins contained in thylakoids
26
How is a photosystem related to excited electrons?
Photosystems are related to excited electrons by absorbing sunlight and generating high-energy electrons. Photosystem is made of pigments, pigments are molecules That have moved by photons. When photons get strikes they have a high-energy .
27
What is the electron transport chain?
The electron transport chain is a series of electron carrier proteins that shuttle high energy electrons during ATP generating reactions.
28
Where is the electron transport chain located?
The electron transport chain is located in the pigments.
29
When will the energy from the electrons be used?
They will be used when the water and oxygen is left the hundred released into the air. And to make ATP
30
What is energy from the electrons used for?
Energy from electrons will be used by the proteins in the chain to pump H+ ions from the stroma into the thylakoid space
31
Define ATP synthase
ATP synthase is a protein that is contained in the thylakoids membrane that allows H+ ions to pass through it well spanning it to
32
Define Chemiosmosis
It is a process in which enables the light dependent electrons to transport ATP and any NADP movement of ions down its gradient used to make ATP
33
What happens in photosystem two?
Light energy is absorbed by photosystem two which produces high energy electrons .water molecules split to replace the old ones
34
What happens in the electron transport chain?
High-energy electrons move to photosystem one by the electron transport chain energy and is generated and used to pump H+ ions across the thylakoids membrane and into the thylakoid space
35
What happens in photosystem one?
Electrons are then re-energized in photosystem one and the second electron transport chain moves electrons to NADP+ and then produces NADPH
36
What happens in the process of hydrogen ion movement and ATP formation?
The thylakoid space is being filled by positively charged H+ions. so now the inside of the thylakoid membrane is positively charged . H+ ions are passed back across the thylakoid membrane and into ATP synthase. as Ions pass through the ATP synthase molecules rotate and the energy that has been produced is used to convert ADP to ATP
37
What are the energy storing compounds are used to power the Calvin cycle?
ATP and NADPH
38
Most of the carbon in the carbon cycle are used to produce what?
Lipids ,sugar ,amino acids and other compounds
39
Light is either (. ? ) or (. ? ).
Reflected or absorbed
40
Photons strike (. ? ) and excite (. ? )
Pigments and electrons
41
What are the light dependent reactions?
Reactants are H2O and 02 | products are NADPH and ATP
42
What are light independent reactants ? | What are light independent products?
Light dependent reactants are H2O and O2 and .the products are NADPH and ATP light independent reactants are CO2 NADPH and ATP .light independent products are sugars ADP and NADP plus
43
Where do light reactions occur?
They occur in the thylakoid
44
What do H2O break down into?
Into electrons, O2 and H+
45
What is a calorie?
The calorie is the amount of energy used to raise water
46
What is energy?
Energy is the strength and vitality required for sustained physical or mental activity,.
47
What is matter?
Matter is a physical substance in general as distinct from mind and spirit which occupies space and possesses rest mass
48
What is the big picture of cellular respiration?
The big picture for cellular respiration is that it breaks down food molecules and extracts their energy
49
What is glycolysis?
Glycolysis is a series of chemical reactions in cytoplasm of the cell where it is split in half
50
Where does glycolysis take place?
Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm
51
What is the outcome of glycolysis?
The outcome of glycolysis is the breakdown of a glucose molecule into two smaller pyruvate molecules
52
What is the function of NADH?
The function of NADH is to carry electrons from a glucose molecule to the electron transport chain
53
What is the function of The electrons to the chain by NADH and FADH2?
The function is to provide the energy that pumps protons across the inner membrane of a mitochondrion
54
What is a concentration gradient?
Concentration gradient is the difference in concentration of a molecule between two sides of the membrane
55
What is the overall purpose of cellular respiration?
The purpose is to capture energy contained in the bond glucose to molecules of ATP
56
What is the equation for cellular respiration?
The equation for cellular respiration is C6H1206+602 light is passed to 6CO2 +6 H2O plus energy
57
What is the big idea of aerobic cellular respiration?
The big idea of aerobic cellular respiration is the process that makes us keep going if there's no oxygen or there is no mitochondria present
58
What are the two solutions found in nature that solves the problem of not having enough oxygen?
Lactic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentation
