Speed up Reactions
What are the molecules used with enzymes called?
Substrates
What is simple diffusion?
The movement of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration. Tries to find equilibrium.
What is facilitated diffusion?
Uses channel proteins to move bigger molecules through a membrane.
What is osmosis?
The movement of water molecules across a membrane
What are two things that active transport needs?
1. Energy
2. A protein pump
What do cells involved in active transport have a large number of near their plasma membrane?
Mitochondria
What is osmosis facilitated by?
Channel proteins called aquaporins
What is the amount of energy needed to get a reaction started called?
Energy of activation
What is the active site in an enzyme?
The part of an enzyme where its substrates fit in
What are the 4 steps of Cellular Respiration?
1. Glycolysis,
2. Preparatory step,
3. Krebs Cycle,
4. Electron Transport chain
Which of the 4 steps of Cellular Respiration happen outside of the Mitochondria?
Glycolysis
Which of the 4 steps of Cellular Respiration happen inside the mitochondria?
Preparatory step, Krebs Cycle, and Electron transport chain
What is the net ATP gain of Cellular Respiration?
34-38
What is the net ATP gain of Fermentation?
2
Why is breathing important to Cellular Respiration?
Breathing takes in oxygen, which is needed for cellular respiration, and releases carbon dioxide, which is a product of cellular respiration
Which phases in Cellular respiration form CO2?
It is released during the preparatory stage and krebs cycle.
Which phase in Cellular Respiration is H2O formed?
It is the end product of the electron transport chain
What is the net gain of ATP in glycolysis per glucose molecule?
2
How many NADH are produced from each glucose molecule as a result of the preparatory reaction?
2, one per pyruvate
What are the products of fermentation by humans and yeast
Humans produce lactate, yeast produce ethyl alcohol and CO2
Which Enzyme is more productive in Cellular Respiration? NADH or FADH2?
NADH. NADH leads to 3 ATP, FADH2 leads to 2 ATP.
Which cycle of cellular respiration happens in the christae?
Electron transport chain
True or False, Glycolysis occurs in the mitochondria?
False, occurs in the cytoplasm
Is fermentation a good source of energy (ATP) for a life sustaining system?
No, fermentation only nets 2 ATP (from the Glycolysis step, which proceeds fermentation) and it is under anerobic conditions
What is the starting and ending products of Glycolysis?
Start with: Glucose, and 2 ATP
End with: 2 Pyruvate molecules, 4 ATP, and 2 NADH
What is the starting and ending products of the Preparatory reaction?
Start with: 2 Pyruvate molecules
End with: 2 Acetyl CoA and 2 CO2
What is the starting and ending products of the Krebs cycle?
Start with: 2 Acetyl CoA
End with: 4 CO2, 2 ATP, 6 NADH, 2 FADH2
What is the starting and ending products of the Electron Transport chain?
Start with: 10 NADH, 2 FADH2
End with: About 34 ATP
Among the 38 possible ATP, which are made in which Cellular respiration cycle?
30 = Electron Transport chain from NADH
4 = Electron Transport chain from FADH2
2 = Krebs Cycle
2 = Glycolysis
Where does the energy come from in Cellular Respiration? (Where is the energy from in our diets?)
The organic Bonds that have electrons
What is the principal pigment of plants and other photosynthetic organisms?
Chlorophyll
What is the sac-like body in chloroplasts that are made of photosynthetic membranes that contain photosystems called?
The thylakoid
What are the large proteins that use energy from H+ ions to bind ADP and phosphate groups together to produce ATP called?
ATP Synthase
What is the region outside the thylkaloid membranes in chloroplasts called?
Stroma
What is a process that does not require oxygen called?
Anerobic
What is a process that requires oxygen called?
Aerorobic
What is a stoma?
Small opening on the underside of the leaf in which gases pass
What is a Mesophyll cell?
Thickest area of the leaf, the site of the most photosynthesis occurrence.
What is a Thylakoid?
flattened sac in chloroplast which contain chlorophyll. The site of photosynthesis light reactions
