Bioenergy and transp
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| autotrophs | use the carbon cycle to use carbon dioxide to produce glucose |
| Photosynthesis | rate is increased by increasing sunlight, increasing carbon dioxide, and increasing temperature. |
| Aerobic respiration | Creates 36 ATP, requires Oxygen, occurs in the mitochondria |
| Anerobic respiration | creates 4 ATP, occurs in the cytoplasm and in bacteria, waste product is alcohol and lactic acid, Can not happen if oxygen is available. |
| Alcohol fermentation | occurs when bacteria and yeast do not have any oxygen available to make energy |
| Cholorplast | Only in plant cells, where photosynthesis occurs. |
| Cholesterol | allows the cell membrane to maintain a fluid shape. Shaped like a honeycomb. |
| buffers | things in the body that help it maintian a constant pH |
| Active transport | uses ATP to move molecules from an area of low concentration to an area oh higher concentration |
| Osmosis | the movement of WATER from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. No energy required. |
| facilitative diffusion | protein molecules embedded in the cell membrane move large molecules into the cell with out the use of energy. |
| salt water plant | cells would swell if you put them in a fresh water solution |
| mitochondria | Where cellular respiration occurs |
| prokaryotic cells | have ribosomes, a cell wall, and plasma membrane |
| organic molecules | all contain carbon |
| stem cells | cells in our body that develop into all the specialized cells we are made up of, example muscle, bone,nerve |
| enzmyes | catalyst that speed up chemical reactions in our body. Are in the category of protiens, can be denatured by temperature and pH |
