Biology Chapter 8

Final Review

QuestionAnswer
The nrg in food originally comes from... the sun
Autotroph make their own food
Principal chemical compounds used to store nrg? ATP
ADP vs. ATP ADP has 2 phosphate groups, ATP has 3
ATP's structure adenine, ribose, 3 phosphate groups
How does a cell store small amounts of nrg? Adds a phosphate group to ADP, making ATP
The nrg in ATP is released when... ATP separates into ADP and a phosphate group.
ATP is used for a. Active Transport b. Movement within the cell.
How does a cell regenerate ATP? Energy from carbohydrates.
What did van Helmont, Priestley, and Ingenhousz find out? Mass plants gain comes from water not soil, plants produce oxygen, a plant must have light to produce oxygen.
Equation for photosynthesis carbon dioxide + water ----> sugar + oxygen or 6CO2 + 6H2O -----> C6H12O6 + 6CO2
Photosynthesis requires water, carbon dioxide, light, and chlorophil
Pigments light absorbing molecules that plants use to gather the sun's energy.
Chlorophil Principle pigment of plants
Chlorophyll absorbs light very well in the blue region.
Tylakoids saclike photosynthetic membranes
Granum a stack of thylakoids
Stroma the region outside the thylakoids
NADP+ The carrier molecule involved in photosynthesis.
Light dependent reactions convert ADP into ATP, produce oxygen, convert NADP+ into NADPH
Light dependent reactions take place... within the thylakoid membrane.
High energy electrons move through the electron transport chain from photosystem II to photosystem I. The difference in charges across the thylakoid membrane provides the energy to make ATP. Pigments in photosystem I use energy fromlight to reenergize e lectrons.
ATP Synthase Produces ATP. H+ ions pass through it. As it spins, the ATP synthase attaches a phosphate group to ADP, making it into ATP
Calvin Cycle Uses ATP and NADPH to make high-energy sugars.
Why is the calvin cycle also called the light-independent reactions? I wonder.
More calvin cycle info Carbon dioxide molecules enter. Energy from ATP and high-energy electrons from NADPH are used to convert 3-carbon molecules into similar 3-carbon molecules (PGA into PGAL). It uses six co2 molecules to make one 6-carbon sugar.
Factors that affect the rate of photosynthesis. Amt. of water, temperature, intensity of light.

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.
