Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Organisms that make their own food | Autotrophs |
| Organisms that get energy from the foods they eat | Heterotrophs |
| Molecule that stores energy in between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate group. It is the basic energy source of all cells. It is used for short term energy storage. | ATP (adenosine triphosphate) |
| Molecule that is formed when the chemical bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate group of ATP is broken to release energy | ADP (adenosine diphosphate) |
| Molecule that stores 90 times the energy that is stored in ATP. it is used for long term energy storage. It is a type of carbohydrate. | Glucose |
| The process that uses the sun's light energy to make simple sugars.6C02 + 6H20 + Light Energy --> C6H12O6 + 602 | Photosynthesis |
| A pigment found in chloroplasts that absorbs light energy. | Chlorophyll |
| Cell organelle where photosynthesis occurs. | Chloroplast |
| 1st step of Photosynthesis that requires light energy. Takes place in the thylakoid of the chloroplast. | Light Dependent Reactions |
| 1st step of Light Dependent Reactions where light is absorbed and used to break up water molecules into Hydrogen ions and Oxygen. | Photosystem II |
| 2nd Step of Light Dependent Reactions where high-energy electrons move toward Photosystem I. | Electron Transport Chain in Photosynthesis |
| 3rd step in Light Dependent Reactions where electrons are re-energized and are used to form NADPH which is used in the Light Independent Reactions (Calvin Cycle) | Photosystem I |
| 4th Step of Light Dependent Reactions when the inside of the thylakoid membrane fills up with positively charged Hydrogen ions. | Hydrogen Ion (H+) Movement |
| 5th Step of Light Dependent Reactions where Hydrogen ions pass through ATP Synthase to convert ADP into ATP. | ATP Formation |
| 2nd step of Photosynthesis that does not require light energy. Takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast. Carbon Dioxide from the atmosphere is used to form high-energy sugars for long-term energy storage. | Light Independent Reactions (Calvin Cycle) |
| 3 Factors that affect photosynthesis | 1.Water shortage 2.Temperature 3.Light Intensity |
| An aerobic process where mitochondria break down glucose molecules to produce ATP for energy.6CO2 + C6H12O6 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy | Cellular Respiration |
| Metabolic process that requires oxygen is called ____________________. | Aerobic |
| Metabolic process that does not require oxygen is called _______________. | Anaerobic |
| An anaerobic process where glucose is broken down to produce ATP. | Fermentation |
| Type of anaerobic process that breaks down glucose to form ATP and Lactic Acid | Lactic Acid Fermentation |
| Type of anaerobic process that breaks down glucose to form ATP, Alcohol, and CO2. | Alcoholic Fermentation |
| 3 Metabolic Pathways of Cellular Respiration | 1.Glycolysis 2.Krebs Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle)3.Electron Transport Chain |
| 2 Metabolic Pathways of Fermentation | 1.Glycolysis 2.Fermentation (either Lactic Acid Fermentation or Alcoholic Fermentation) |
| The process of "breaking sugar." It occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. It is the first step of Cellular Respiration and Fermentation. It produces 2 ATP molecules | Glycolysis |
| 6-Carbon molecule that is formed in photosynthesis to store energy and broken down in cellular respiration to release energy. | Glucose |
| 3-Carbon molecule that is formed during Glycolysis. | Pyruvic Acid (Pyruvate) |
| Cellular Respiration Process that occurs in the mitochondrial matrix. 2 ATP molecules are formed, 6 CO2 molecules are formed, 8 NADH and 2 FADH2 electron-carriers are formed. | Krebs Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle) |
| Metabolic pathway in cellular respiration that occurs in the inner membrane of the mitochondria (cristae). Uses electron-carriers, NADH and FADH2 to convert ADP to ATP. 32 ATP are formed and 6 water molecules are formed | Electron Transport Chain in Cellular Respiration |
