1
New cards
Final electron acceptor
Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in the Electron Transport Chain (ETC).
2
New cards
Fermentation
A less efficient pathway that produces 2 ATP per glucose molecule when oxygen is absent.
3
New cards
Cellular Respiration ATP yield
Cellular respiration yields 29 ATP per glucose, making it significantly more efficient than fermentation.
4
New cards
Chloroplasts
The site of photosynthesis, containing thylakoid membranes and the stroma.
5
New cards
Thylakoid membranes
Location within chloroplasts where light reactions occur during photosynthesis.
6
New cards
Stroma
The site of the Calvin cycle within chloroplasts.
7
New cards
Oxidative phosphorylation
Occurs in mitochondria and generates ATP using energy from NADH and FADH2.
8
New cards
Photophosphorylation
The process in chloroplasts where light energy drives ATP production.
9
New cards
Photosynthesis process
An endergonic process converting light energy into glucose (6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2).
10
New cards
Cellular Respiration process
An exergonic process that releases energy from glucose (C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + 29 ATP).
11
New cards
Energy efficiency comparison
Cellular respiration is more efficient than fermentation, yielding more ATP.
12
New cards
Role of chlorophyll
Chlorophyll captures light energy for photosynthesis in thylakoid membranes.
13
New cards
NADH and FADH2
Electron carriers that provide energy for ATP generation in oxidative phosphorylation.
14
New cards
Endergonic vs. Exergonic reactions
Photosynthesis is endergonic (energy requiring), while cellular respiration is exergonic (energy releasing).
15
New cards
Calvin cycle
The process in the stroma of chloroplasts where CO2 is fixed into glucose.
