biology quiz photosythesis

autotroph

What is the vocabulary word for organisms that make their own food?

cellular respiration

Which process, photosynthesis or cellular respiration, occurs in the mitochondria?

metabolic pathway

This vocabulary term means: a series of linked reactions in which the products of one reaction fuel the next.

glucose + oxygen —----- carbon dioxide + water

What is the chemical formula for cellular respiration?

glycolysis

What is the first step of BOTH aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

cytoplasm

Where in the cell does glycolysis occur?

chloroplast

What is the organelle in which photosynthesis takes place?

Plants provide necessary oxygen and energy for us to live.

Why are plants important in the existence of animals?

aerobic cellular respiration produces 36-38 ATP and anaerobic is much less

Which produces more energy: fermentation or aerobic respiration?

alcoholic and lactic acid fermentation

What are the two types of fermentation?

carbon dioxide and ATP

What product does aerobic and anaerobic respiration share?

carbon dioxide + water —sunlight—---- glucose + oxygen

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

light dependent reactions and light independent reactions

What are the two stages of photosynthesis called?

lactic acid fermentation

What type of fermentation occurs in our muscle cells?

carbon dioxide, water, Energy from the sun

What are the reactants of photosynthesis?

pyruvic acid or pyruvate

What does one molecule of glucose split into after glycolysis?

whether oxygen is present

What determines what happens to the pyruvic acid after glycolysis?

Calvin cycle

What is the scientific name for the light-independent reaction?

plants using the sunlight to produce glucose in chloroplast

What is photosynthesis?

ATP

What is the name of the main energy compound that living things use?

Chlorophyll

What is the name of pigment that captures light in photosynthesis?

Yeast and bacteria

What organisms can go through alcoholic fermentation?

Cytoplasm

Where does fermentation occur?

We use alcoholic fermentation to have the yeast make carbon dioxide which adds carbonation.

Why would we need to add yeast cells to the soda if we were to make it

from eating plants

How do we, as humans, acquire energy from the sun?

oxygen

What must be present in order for cellular respiration to occur?

cellular respiration

What is another name for aerobic respiration?

heterotroph

What is the vocabulary term for organisms that must consume organic materials from other organisms to obtain the energy for life?

glycolysis and fermentation

What is another name for anaerobic respiration?

sunlight

What is the ultimate source of energy for all life on Earth?

glucose and oxygen

What are the products of photosynthesis?

glucose and oxygen

What are the reactants of cellular respiration?

carbon dioxide, water and ATP

What are the products of cellular respiration?

not enough energy is produced to sustain life for the long term

Why can't we survive if our cells only went through fermentation?

C6H12O6

What is the chemical formula for glucose?

Exercise increases the rate of respiration

How did exercise affect the rate of respiration?
