New cards

Where do the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place?


in the thylakoid

2
New cards

The photosystems can be found in:

The thylakoid membrane

3
New cards

The light reactions of photosynthesis serve to:

Split water and release oxygen AND reduce the electron acceptor NADP+ to NADPH and generate ATP from ADP by photophosphorylation.

4
New cards

NADPH is produced in the light reactions of photosynthesis by:

The reduction of NADP+ by NADP+ reductase

5
New cards

The Electron Transport Chain from PSII to PSI in the light reactions:


Provides the energy that moves H+ ions from the stroma to the thylakoid space

6
New cards

From where does the oxygen come that is produced as a byproduct of photosynthesis?

from the breakdown of water

7
New cards

Where do the light-independent reactions of photosynthesis take place?

in the stroma

8
New cards

Fill in the sentence: The enzyme _________ attaches CO2 to the five- carbon molecule ________.

RuBisCo; RuBP

9
New cards

In plants, the ultimate  electron donor in photosynthesis is:

H2O

10
New cards

The passing of a pair of high energy electrons to NADP+, resulting in NADPH, is associated with which photosystem(s)?

photosystem I

11
New cards

Antennae work with reaction centers by providing:

energy transfer

12
New cards

What happens to the NADPH molecules that are generated in the photosynthetic electron transport chain?

They provide energy to the Calvin cycle.

13
New cards

The terminal electron acceptor of a photosynthetic electron transport chain is:

NADP+

14
New cards

Which of these correctly lists the three phases of the Calvin cycle?

carboxylation, reduction, and regeneration

15
New cards

The products of the Calvin cycle are 3-carbon sugars.

True

16
New cards

Carbon enters the Calvin cycle in the form of:

CO2.

17
New cards

During periods of illumination, the pH in the stroma of the chloroplast should be _____ compared with the thylakoid lumen due to the _____ concentration of protons in the stroma.

higher; lower

18
New cards

Which compound is required for the reduction phase of the Calvin cycle?

NADPH

19
New cards

Why is the regeneration phase of the Calvin cycle essential?

because a 5-carbon molecule RuBP is necessary for the carboxylation phase

20
New cards

Which of the sequences accurately represents the flow of electrons through living organisms?

H2O → photosynthesis → carbohydrate → cellular respiration → H2O

21

Which of the following is true about homologous chromosomes?

They have the same genes in the same order

25
New cards

Which organelles divide by binary fission?

Mitochondria and chloroplasts

26
New cards

What are chromosomes made of?

DNA and proteins

27
New cards

Which of the following is true about homologous chromosomes?

They have the same genes in the same order

28
New cards

The division of the cell's cytoplasm in a eukaryotic cell is known as:

cytokinesis

29
New cards

31
New cards

The two large phases of the cell cycle, which include all others, are:

Interphase and the M Phase

32
New cards

Which of the following accurately describes when sister chromatids are present:

S, G2, Prophase, Metaphase

33
New cards

At the end of mitosis:

There is one cell with 2 nuclei

34
New cards

What would happen to the daughter cells if the G2 phase of the parent cell is shortened?

The cells would be smaller than normal.

35

38
New cards

What molecule is necessary to move the chromosomes from metaphase through anaphase?

microtubules

39
New cards

If the function of actin were disrupted, what would be the most likely outcome?

Cells would become multinucleate

40
New cards

Which of the following is NOT a reason for cell division?

Sexual reproduction

41
