Study Guide for chapter 4
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| transfers energy to cell processes | ATP |
| lower energy molecule that can be converted into ATP | ADP |
| process by which some organisms use chemical energy instead of light energy to make energy storing carbon-based molecules | Chemosynthesis |
| a process that captures energy from sunlight to make sugars that store chemical energy | Photosynthesis |
| a molecule in chloroplasts that absorbs some of the energy in visible light | Chlorophyll |
| coin shaped; membrane-enclosed compartments | Thylakoids |
| capture energy from sunlight - take place within and across the membrane of the thylakoids | Light-Dependent Reactions |
| use energy from the light-dependent reactions to make sugars - occurs in the stroma of chloroplasts | Light-Independent Reactions |
| two groups of molecules - photosystem I & photosystem II | Photosystems |
| series of protein in the membrane of the thylakoid | Electron Transport Chain |
| makes ATP by adding phosphate groups to ADP | ATP Synthase |
| process by which a photosynthetic organism uses energy to synthesize simple sugars from CO2 | Calvin Cycle |
| releases chemical energy from sugars and other carbon based molecules to make ATP when oxygen is present | Cellular Respiration |
| process that requires oxygen to occur | Aerobic |
| splits glucose into two three-carbon molecules and makes two molecules of ATP | Glycolysis |
| does not need oxygen to take place | Anaerobic |
| produces molecules that carry energy to the second part of cellular respiration | Krebs Cycle |
| does not make ATP, but allows glycolysis to continue | Fermentation |
| what causes your muscles to "burn" during hard exercise | Lactic Acid |
