Cell Processes

study respiration, photosynthesis, and enzymes

QuestionAnswer
proteins necessary to speed up chemical reactions; can break molecules down or synthesize molecules. enzymes
any name for a substance that is not changed or used up during a reaction catalyst
substance an enzyme catalyzes substrate
temperature, pH, # of enzymes, or # of substrates factors that affect enzyme action
the best optimal
proteins are changed or damaged denature
theory to explain how an enzyme and a substrate fit together lock and key
form of energy used directly by cells ATP
break down of organic molecules to extract energy from their chemical bonds to produce ATP cellular respiration
uses oxygen; more efficient means of producing ATP aerobic respiration
does not use oxygen to produce a small quantity of ATP anaerobic respiration
organic molecule primarily used to produce ATP glucose
the three carbon molecule capable of further breakdown in oxygen is available pyruvic acid
the number of ATP molecules produced by anaerobic respiration 2
the number of ATP molecules produced from the complete breakdown of glucose in aerobic respiration 36 to 38
waste products produced during respiration carbon dioxide and water
location of glycolysis (anaerobic respiration) cytoplasm
location of aerobic respiration mitochondrion
waste product produced in human muscle tissue and in some single-celled organisms as a result of anaerobic respiration lactic acid
waste products produced by yeast and some bacteria as a result of anaerobic respiration alcohol and carbon dioxide
process by which energy is stored in the chemical bonds of organic molecules; process that makes glucose using the sun's energy photosynthesis
waste product of photosynthesis oxygen
organic molecule made from photosynthesis glucose
complex carbohydrate produced from the storage of glucose in plants starch
primary green pigment needed for photosynthesis chlorophyll
location of photosynthesis chloroplast
technique used to separate pigments in a lab chromatography
pores on leaves stomates
cells that surround the pores on leaves; regulates the intake of carbon dioxide and the giving off of water vapor guard cells
protein molecules on cell membranes responsible for communication between cells receptor proteins

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
