Cellular Respiration

        Help!  

Question
Answer
(ADP) adenosine diphosphate   molecule formed from the breaking off of a phosphate group for ATP; results in a release of energy that is used for biological reactions  
🗑
(ATP) adenosine triphosphate   energy  
🗑
aerobic   chemical reactions that require the presence of oxygen  
🗑
alcoholic fermentation   anaerobic process in which cells convert pyruvic acid into carbon dioxide and ethyl alcohol; carried out by many bacteria and fungi such as yeasts  
🗑
anaerobic   chemical reactions that do not require the presence of oxygen  
🗑
Calvin cycle   series of reactions during the light  
🗑
cellular respiration   chemical process where miochondria break down food molecules to produce ATP; the three stages of cellular respiration are glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain  
🗑
chlorophyll   light  
🗑
citric acid cycle   in cellular respiration, series of chemical reactions that break down glucose and produce ATP; energizes electron carriers that pass the energized electrons on to the electron transport chain  
🗑
electron transport chain   series of proteins embedded in a membrane along which energized electrons are transported; as electrons are passed from molecule to molecule, energy is released  
🗑
glycolysis   in cellular respiration, series of ananerobic chemical reactions in the cytoplasm that breaks down glucose into pyruvic acid; forms a net profit of two ATP molecules  
🗑
Krebs cycle   second stage of cellular respiration, in which pyruvic acid is brokeninto carbon dixide in a series of energy extracting reactions  
🗑
lactic acid fermentation   series of anaerobic chemical reactions in which pyruvic acid uses NADH to form lactic acid and NAD+, which is then used in glycolysis; supplies energy when oxygen for aerobic respiration is scarce  
🗑
light   dependent reactions  
🗑
light   independent reactions  
🗑
NADP+   electron carrier molecule; when carrying excited electrons it becomes NADPH  
🗑
photolysis   reaction taking place in the thylakoid membranes of a chloroplast during light  
🗑
photosynthesis   process by which autotrophs, such as algae and plants, trap energy from sunlight with chlorophyll and use this energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into simple sugars  
🗑
pigment   molecules that absorb specific wavelengths of sunlight  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
