Cellular Respiration
Experiment with Yeast
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Carbon Dioxide is involved in what type of reactions? | Light independent reactions |
| Aerobic respiration takes place in which organelle? | Mitochondrion |
| Chlorophyll and other pigments are involved in | Light-dependent reactions |
| The process where light energy is trapped in a plant's chlorophyll and produces sugars is called | Photosynthesis |
| The process where mitochodria break down food molecules and release energy (ATP) is called | Cellular Respiration |
| What molecule is formed from the breaking off of a phosphate group and results in a release of energy that is used for biological reactions | (ADP) adenosine diphosphate |
| What molecule represents stored energy | (ATP) adenosine triphosphate |
| The three stages of cellular respiration are | Glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain |
| In cellular respiration, series of chemical reactions that break down glucose and produce ATP; energize the electron carriers that pass the energized electrons on to the electron transport chain is called | The Citric Acid Cycle |
| In cellular respiration, series of proteins embedded in a membrane along which energized electrons are transported; as electrons are passed from molecule to molecule, energy is released | Electron Transport Chain |
| 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 | Glycolysis |
