Quiz Review

QuestionAnswer
What is Phosphorylation? adding a phosphate (negatively charged)
How do you form AMP? only a small amount of energy is needed to bond phosphates (small energy stored)
How do you form ADP? requires more energy to force phosphates together than to form AMP (moderate energy stored)
How do you for ATP? great amount of energy is needed to bond phosphates - endergonic reaction (large amount of energy stored)
What is Dephosporylation? release of phosphate (bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphates is broken to release energy)
What is Exergonic reaction? energy released for cell metabolism
What is the importance of the ATP cycle? relieves cell of having to store all the ATP it needs at once
What is the importance of ADP? can also be used as an energy source
Why do we see color? - Light is made up of wavelengths of light - The color we see is a result of which wavelengths are reflected back to our eyes
What color does chlorophyll absorb well and not absorb well? - absorbs blue-violent and red well - does not absorb green well
Why do leaves change color? - when the water supply is cut off to the leaves during the fall the chlorophyll begins to breakdown - pigments of the other colors are not visible
What is photosynthesis? process that uses the sun's energy to make simple sugars
What is Photosystem? - a pigment complex (contains chlorophyll a & b & carotenoids) and electron acceptors - Photosystem II & I - absorb solar energy that gets bounced around pigments until concentrated into a pair of chlorophyll a ( reaction center)
What is Chemiosmosis? the generation of ATP by the movement of hydrogen ions across a membrane (in the thylakoid) during photosynthesis (occurs in cell respiration)
What is created during photosynthesis? high-energy carbohydrates such as sugars and starches are created
Where does photosynthesis occur? chloroplast
What is the fluid portion outside of saclike membrane? stroma
What is the formula to photosynthesis in words? Carbon Dioxide + Water -> Sugars + Oxygen
Describe Light Dependent Reactions: - produce energy- rich compounds (NADPH) - takes place in the thylakoids - water is required as a source of electrons and hydrogen oxygen is released as the byproduct
Describe Light Independent Reactions: - takes place in the stroma - cabrondioxide must come in from the atmosphered - ATP & NADPH produced in the first reactions used - produces carbon - containing sugrars and other carbohydrates
ATP compound used by cells to store and release energy
Pigment light absorbing molecule used by plants to gather the sun's energy
NADPH+ carrier molecule that transfers high-energy electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules
Calvin Cycle light-independent reactions of photosynthesis in which energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build high-energy compounds such as sugar

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.
