Biology EXAM2

Chapters 5 - 8 Practice exam

QuestionAnswer
Compare and contrast simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and active transport. Include energy requirements and the direction molecules move. Simple diffusion moves molecules from high to low concentration without proteins. Facilitated diffusion also moves molecules from high to low concentration but uses proteins. Active transport moves molecules from low to high concentration and requires ATP
Explain how an enzyme works using the terms substrate, active site, and product. Also explain what happens if the enzyme becomes denatured. A substrate binds to an enzyme's active site. The enzyme converts the substrate into products and releases them. If the enzyme is denatured, its shape changes and it cannot function properly.
Describe the three major stages of aerobic cellular respiration (glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and ETC). Include the location and main products of each stage. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and produces 2 ATP and 2 NADH. The Krebs cycle occurs in the mitochondrial matrix and produces 2 ATP, NADH, FADH₂, and CO₂. The ETC occurs on the inner mitochondrial membrane and produces about 32 ATP and water.
Explain the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose and oxygen. Cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen to produce ATP, carbon dioxide, and water. The products of one process are the reactants of the other.
Compare C3, C4, and CAM plants. Explain how C4 and CAM plants reduce photorespiration C3 plants use the standard Calvin cycle. C4 plants separate carbon fixation and the Calvin cycle into different cells. CAM plants open their stomata at night to conserve water. C4 and CAM plants reduce photorespiration in hot, dry environments.

Alcoholic fermentation produces ethanol and __________. CO₂
Lactic acid fermentation produces __________. Lactic Acid
Photosynthesis occurs in the __________. Chloroplast
The fluid-filled region of the chloroplast is the __________. Stroma
Stacks of thylakoids are called __________. Grana
The light reactions occur in the __________ membranes. Thylakoid
The Calvin Cycle occurs in the __________. Stroma
Photosystem II splits __________ molecules. Water
The waste product of Photosystem II is __________. Oxygen
Photosystem I produces __________. NADPH
It takes __________ turns of the Calvin Cycle to make one glucose molecule. 6
Which membrane component helps maintain membrane fluidity? Cholesterol Helps maintain membrane fluidity.

Which stage of respiration occurs in the cytoplasm? Glycolysis
Which molecule is the final electron acceptor? Oxygen
How much net ATP is produced during glycolysis? 2
