Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration
What does “ADP” stand for? _________________ adenosine diphosphate
During photosynthesis, CO 2 is used to make glucose in a process called carbon dioxide fixation
What is the ultimate source of energy for all plants and animals on Earth? the sun
During photosynthesis, what are the 2 inorganic molecules that, along with sunlight, form glucose? CO 2 and H 2 O
Photosynthesis or Respiration? - is aerobic respiration
What is the name of the pigment found in a majority of plants? chlorophyll
Put the following molecules in order based on their energy storing capabilities (from highest to lowest). ADP ATP AMP ATP, ADP, AMP
What type of cellular respiration occurs when oxygen is required? aerobic respiration
What is the chemical formula for glucose? C 6 H 12 O 6
Photosynthesis or Respiration? - requires CO 2 photosynthesis
Specifically, where is the energy stored in an ATP molecule? in the P-bonds
Write the chemical equation for cellular respiration. _________________ C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + 38 ATP
True or False… Photosynthesis requires oxygen. False
What is the pigment that gives leaves, vegetables and some flowers their orange/yellow colors? carotenoids
What does “ATP” stand for? _________________ adenosine triphosphate
What is the name of the process that converts light energy into chemical energy? photosynthesis
During photosynthesis, how are the electrons replaced that leave the chlorophyll? water is split
When glucose is broken down in the absence of oxygen it is an anaerobic process called fermentation
The series of proteins in the thylakoid membrane that carries electrons is called the electron transport chain
When water is split during photosynthesis, what 3 products result? electrons, + H, and O 2
How many turns of the Calvin cycle are needed to produce 1 glucose molecule? 6
Write the chemical equation for photosynthesis. _________________ 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2
Photosynthesis or Respiration? - breaks down glucose respiration
Photosynthesis or Respiration? - produces large amounts of ATP respiration
Photosynthesis or Respiration? - electron transport chain produces small amounts of ATP and NADPH photosynthesis
What is the name of the disk-shaped structures in chloroplasts? (they contain the pigments) thylakoids
What are the 2 products of alcoholic fermentation? CO 2 and ethyl alcohol (ethanol)
When the muscles of the body “run out” of oxygen, what process takes place that allows your muscles to continue to contract? lactic acid fermentation
Photosynthesis or Respiration? - carbon dioxide fixation photosynthesis
What molecule is the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain of cellular respiration? oxygen
In which organelle does cellular respiration take place? mitochondria
Why do leaves turn yellow during the fall? the chlorophyll is broken down and stored in the twigs, allowing the yellow color to show through (it was there all along)
Photosynthesis or Respiration? - occurs in all living cells respiration
Put the following in order: a. animals eat plants to get energy b. plants absorb sunlight c. plants use chemical energy to make organic compounds d. light from the sun reaches Earth e. plants convert sunlight to chemical energy d b e c a
Photosynthesis or Respiration? - light is required photosynthesis
What is an organism called that uses sunlight and inorganic molecules to produce organic molecules? autotroph
FINAL QUESTION Good Luck!
What is the process of splitting water called? photolysis
What was the plant that was first used in experiments in the 1700’s that led to the discovery of photosynthesis? The mint leaf
