cellbio exam 2 3

metabolism/photosynthesis

TermDefinition
metabolism all biochem reactions in cell
goal of life/metabolism grow cell and reproduce
anabolism resources used to build
catabolism break stuff down and release energy
precursor metabolites amino acids released when stuff is catabolized
ATP energy stored in chemical bonds
ADP low-energy form of ATP, can be reenergized
oxidation molecule loses an electron
reduction molecule gains an electron
NAD+ hydrogen taxi
photosynthesis 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2
roots how plants get water/nutrients
leaves where photosynth happens
upper epidermis outside layer of leaf, wax waterproofing
lower epidermis little holes (stomata) for gas exchange
mesophyll middle leaf
palisade mesophyll where photosynth happens
spongy mesophyll lets gas flow thru
chloroplasts where thylakoids catch light
granum stack of thylakoids
thylakoids pancakes that catch light
stroma liquid filling of chloroplasts, water+nutrients
light dependent step sun energy turned into chemical energy
photosystem 1 collects photons (energy), chlorophyllA + magnesium
chlorophyll A main light catching pigment, extreme ends of light spectrum
chlorophyll B middle of light spectrum
carotenoids catches light chrorophyll can't catch well
photosystem 2 splits water and takes the electrons, uses that energy to slap ADP+phosphates together to make ATP
