Bio Review

TermDefinition
Photosynthesis the process that converts light energy into chemical energy that is stored in glucose
Reactants of photosynthesis 6H₂O + 6CO₂ (reactants)
Products of photosynthesis C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ (products)
Location of light-dependent reactions takes place in the thylakoid membrane
Location of light-independent reaction (Calvin Cycle) takes place in the stroma
Why does photosynthesis occur? occurs to make glucose (energy) for cell processes- to store energy in food
When does photosynthesis occur? During the day when sunlight is available
What are the two parts of photosynthesis? consists of light dependent reactions and light independent reactions
Reactants of light dependent reactions REACTANTS- NADP, ADP, water molecules
Products of light dependent reactions PRODUCTS- NADPH, ATP, oxygen
Reactants of light independent reactions (calvin cycle) REACTANTS- CO₂, NADPH, ATP
Products of light independent reactions (calvin cycle) PRODUCTS- Glucose (technically adp and nadp+ too because they are converted but don't worry about that)
Other names for light-dependent reactions photolysis, light reactions
Other names for light-independent reactions dark reactions, calvin cycle
Steps of light-dependent reactions Photosystem II, Electron Transport Chain (ETC), Photosystem I, Chemiomosis (H+ movement and ATP formation)
How do plants store excess sugar? stored in the form of starch
How do animals store excess sugar? stored in the form of glycogen
What is respiration? process in which electrons are harvested from from carbon compounds (like glucose) and the cell uses that energy to make ATP
Reactants of respiration C₆H₁₂O₆, 6O₂
Products of respiration 6H₂O, 6CO₂, ATP
Location of glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm
Location of Krebs Cycle takes place in the mitochondrial matrix
Location of Electron Transport Chain (ETC) located in the inner mitochondrial membrane
Why does respiration occur? occurs to break down glucose (energy) for cell processes- to release energy from food
When does respiration occur? process that occurs constantly
What are the 3 parts of respiration? consists of glycolysis, krebs cycle, electron transport chain
How many ATP are produced in total during respiration? 36-38 produced
How is respiration affected by exercise? Respiration must speed up, the body must take in more oxygen so you breathe faster
Why do we need to digest our food before respiration? Glucose is needed for respiration, glucose comes from digested food
What is fermentation? anaerobic respiration- makes ATP when oxygen is not present
Two types of fermentation Alcoholic fermentation and lactic acid fermentation
Location of fermentation in a cell occurs in the cytoplasm
When does fermentation occur? occurs when oxygen is not available for cellular respiration
Why does fermentation occur? occurs to make short- energy, to continue the production of ATP when oxygen is not present, and to convert NADH back into NAD+ so glycosis can continue producting ATP
Reactants of alcoholic fermentation AND lactic acid fermentation pyruvic acid, NADH
Products of alcoholic fermentation alcohol, CO₂, NAD+
What organisms does alcoholic fermentation take place in? takes place in yeast, some microorganisms
What organisms does lactic acid fermentation take place in? takes place in most organisms, including humans
Structure of ATP Composed of adenine (nitrogenous base), ribose sugar, 3 phosphate groups (is a nucleotide)
Function of ATP provides a source of energy that can be broken down fast, also easy to create
Energy in ATP compared to energy in glucose Glucose stores much more energy but is much harder to break down, ATP stores much less energy but is much easier to create and restore
How does ADP turn into ATP? ADP + 3rd phosphate group = ATP
How does ATP turn back into ADP? When the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate group breaks
How is ATP like a rechargeable battery? The addition of a phosphate group (that converts ADP into ATP) fully "charges" ADP because ATP stores much more energy than ADP
Why do we see things as certain colors? Pigments absorb specific wavelengths of light, the wavelengths of light that aren't absorbed reflect back
Color of light a plant absorbs Mostly blue and red light, not much green because that color is reflected back by chlorophyll
Difference between autotrophs and heterotrophs Autotrophs get energy from sources like the sun and chemicals, heterotrophs must consume other living organisms
Chemical formula for water H₂O
Chemical formula for carbon dioxide CO₂
Chemical formula for oxygen O₂
Chemical formula for glucose C₆H₁₂O₆
Equation for photosynthesis 6H₂O + 6CO₂ ---(light energy)---> C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
Equation for cellular respiration C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ -> 6H₂O + 6CO₂

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.
