UNIT 3- cellular energy in a mutualistic relationship
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Every chemical reactions starts with at least one _____ that interracts with at least one ______ and becomes at least one ______. | Reactant, enzyme, product |
| Catabolic pathways | break down complex molecules and release energy |
| Anabolic pathways | build complex molecules and use energy |
| How can the inorganic phosphates (P!) of an ATP molecule be used to make a transport protein work? | Pi can be added to proteins, changing their shape & allowing the protein to do the work, called phosphorylation |
| What is photosynthesis? | The process of using light energy to produce chemical reactions in the form of sugars. |
| Is photosynthesis catabolic or anabolic? | Anabolic |
| During the leaf lab in class, why did the leaf disks begin to float? | They had more oxygen |
| What are the 4 structures found in a chloroplast? | Thylakoid, granna, stroma, & inner and outer membrane |
| Thylakoid def: | membrane-bound sacs where the light reaction takes place |
| granna def: | The stacks that the thylakoid are arranged into |
| stroma def: | liquid space where the Calvin cycle takes place |
| What is the role of Chlorophyll? | Fills the thylakoid membranes & asorbs violet-blue light |
| What is the role of Carotenoids? | absorbs violet-blue light, but then also protects the leaf from sun damage |
| during the light reaction, What is the role of sunlight? | provides energy that excites electrons in chlorophyll |
| during the light reaction, what is the role of H2O? | water is the source of electrons & oxygen |
| during the light reaction, what is the role of ATP? | used to make sugars in the next stage of photosynthesis |
| during the light reaction, what is the role of NADPH? | carries high-energy electrons to the Calvin cycle to help build sugars. |
| Why is regeneration essential to the Calvin cycle? | it rebuilds RuBP, the molecule needed to capture CO₂ and keep the cycle going. |
| During fermentation yeast and bacteria produce ____ as a waste product. | alcohol |
| During fermentations humans (and some bacteria) produce ____ as a waste product. | lactic acid |
| What would happen if NAD+ wasn't regenerated after glycolosis | NADH couldn’t be made, and glycolysis would stop. |
| what are the three structures found in the mitochondria? | inner & outer membranes, cristae, and matrix |
| what is the main purpose of the citric acid cycle? | to break down acetyl CoA to make NADH, FADH₂, and ATP that carry energy to the electron transport chain. |
| How much energy is produced in glycolysis and the citric acid cycle? | 2 ATP |
| How much ATP is produced in Oxidative phosphorylation? | 28 ATP |
| What is the main function of glycolysis? | break down glucose into PRUVATE while producing a small amount of ATP and NADH. |
| what is frutose diphosphate? | a double-phosphate sugar made in the middle of glycolysis |
