photosynthesis and cellular respiration exam review

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.

Question
Answer
what is photosynthesis?   process where plants and other photosynthetic organisms use the sun's energy and convert it into chemical energy  
🗑
which organelle is responsible for photosynthesis?   chloroplast  
🗑
what is cellular respiration?   when organisms use energy and oxygen to break down food into ATP  
🗑
which organelle is responsible for cellular respiration?   mitochondria  
🗑
what is chlorophyll?   a pigment within a plant that captures energy from sunlight  
🗑
why do things appear a certain color?   objects absorb some colors but reflect others. The color that is REFLECTED is what is seen.  
🗑
what is the formula (unbalanced) for photosynthesis?   carbon dioxide + water --> glucose + oxygen  
🗑
what is the formula (unbalanced) for cellular respiration?   glucose + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water  
🗑
where do plants get the carbon dioxide they need to do photosynthesis?   it is emitted from organisms doing cellular respiration or from human's burning fossil fuels  
🗑
where does the oxygen come from in the photosynthesis equation?   water is split and its electrons are donated to the electron transport chain. When this happens oxygen is released.  
🗑
where does the glucose come from in the photosynthesis equation?   it is made during the calvin cycle  
🗑
what is the calvin cycle?   the part of photosynthesis that occurs in the thylakoid membrane (part of the chloroplast) that converts light energy into chemical energy (glucose)  
🗑
what is chemiosmosis?   when a gradient of hydrogen ions (protons) allows those protons to fall through the ATP synthtase pump which provides the pump with energy to make ATP.  
🗑
how is ATP made?   when a phosphate group is added to ADP by the ATP synthetase pump  
🗑
what are the stages of photosynthesis?   the light reaction, electron transport chain, and the calvin cycle  
🗑
what are the stages of cellular respiration?   glycolysis, electron transport chain and krebs cycle  
🗑
what products are made during the light cycle of photosynthesis?   ATP and NADPH (an electron carrier)  
🗑
what is the ATP made during the light cycle of photosynthesis used for?   it is used in the calvin cycle to create carbohydrates (glucose)  
🗑
what is another term used to describe the electron transport chain and the krebs cycle?   aerobic respiration (because they require oxygen)  
🗑
what is the name of the process that occurs when there is no oxygen present but organic compounds are still being broken down?   fermentation  
🗑
what is a byproduct of fermentation within humans?   lactic acid  
🗑
where is most of the ATP made during cellular respiration?   the electron transport chain  
🗑
what is an autotroph?   an organism that does photosynthesis or chemosynthesis (makes it own food)  
🗑
what is a heterotroph?   a consumer  
🗑
what is glycolysis?   the first step of cellular respiration which involves glucose being split into smaller molecules  
🗑
why do plants have both chloroplasts and mitochondria?   so that they can do photosynthesis and create glucose and then break that glucose down into ATP. That ATP will then be used for the plant to grow.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
