cellular respiration/photosythesis (done 2)

what does ATP stand for

adenosine(base) triphosphate(3 phosphates) + ribose sugar

how does ATP make energy

by adding H20 it become ADP+P, then it loses a phosphate and produces energy, then cellular respiration adds another phosphate

which organisms need ATP

all organisms

what type of energy is ATP

chemical

where is energy made

membrane of the mitochondria

what is the name for organisms that make their own food

autotroph

what happens in the light dependent reaction (light reaction)

in the thylakoid, light is converted into atp and water is converted into oxygen which is released

what happens in the light independent reaction (calvin cycle)

in the stroma atp and co2 is used to make and produce glucose

what is the photosynthesis equation

6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

what does it stand for

Carbon Dioxide + Water + (light) → Glucose + Oxygen

where in the plant does photosynthesis take place

the leaves

what is cellular respiration

a metabolic process where the cells break down the glucose molecule to convert it into ATP

what are the 3 parts of aerobic respiration

Glycolysis, Krebs Cycle and the Electron Transport Chain (ETC)

what is the cellular respiration equation

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

what does the cellular respiration equation mean

Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP

what is glycolysis

takes place in the cytoplasm, large glucose molecules are broken down into 2 pyruvic acids, 2 hydrogen molecules are made, 2 atp are produced

what is the krebs cycle

occurs in the mitochondria, takes in water and oxygen and creates carbon dioxide, it also breaks down small glucose molecules and produces more hydrogen and 2 more atp

what is the electron transport chain

the NADH and FADH2 collected through the previous steps go out of the mitochondria membrane because of gradual equilibrium, they then come back in through ATP synthase which makes 32-34 ATP

how many ATP are totally produced through cellular respiration

36-38 ATP

what is fermentation (anaerobic process)

using anaerobic respiration to make ATP without oxygen

what is lactic acid fermentation

the 2 pyruvates in glycolysis and 2NADH become 2NAD\* and lactic acid, allowing the process to continue

what is alcohol fermentation

this takes 2 pyruvates and 2NADH and turns it into 2NAD\* and 2 ethanol while releasing 2CO2, this is used in plants, yeasts and some bacteria

which type of fermentation is used by humans

lactic acid fermentation when muscles dont have enough oxugen to produce atp
