Term
Photosynthesis occurs where
Definition
chloroplasts
Term
chemical formula for photosynthesis
Definition
6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight ----> C6H12O6 + 6O2
Term
Chemical formula for cellular respiration
Definition
C6H12O6 + 6O----> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 ATP
Term
Photosynthesis occurs in who
Definition
plants
Term
What is required for photosynthesis
Definition
* sunlight which is it's energy
Term
Where in the cell does cell respiration occur
Definition
mitochonria
Term
Cellular respiration occurs in who
Definition
Plants & Animals
Term
Facts about cellular respiration
Definition

*sunlight is NOT required

*releases energy

Term
autotroph
Definition

*produce own food

*producer on food chain

*plants

Term
heterotroph
Definition

*cannot produce own food

*consumer

*eat plants & animals

Term
chlorophyll A
Definition

reflects: bright green

absorbs: blue, red, violet

Term
chlorophyll B
Definition

Reflect:  olive green

absorb: blue, red

Term
carotenoids
Definition
orange pigment; reflects orance
Term
beta carotene
Definition
yellow/orange pigment
Term
xanthrophyll
Definition
reflects yellow
Term
ATP
Definition
        • adenosine triphosphate
        • energy currency
        • mitochondria is where it forms
        • energy is released when a "P" is removed & chem bond is broken
Term
ADP
Definition
  • Adenosine Diphosphate
  • ATP + H2O --> ADP
  • stored energy by breaking the high energy bonds
Term
chemosynthesis
Definition
synthesis of carbohydrate from CO2 & H2O
Term
catabolism
Definition
  • breaking down
  • breaking down food to make ATP
Term
anabolism
Definition
  • building up
  • use energy - convert ATP to ADP
Term
aerobic cellular respiration
Definition
  • requires oxygen
  • occurs in mitochondria
  • High yield of ATP - 36-38 ATP
Term
anaerobic cellular respiration
Definition
  • not requiring oxygen
  • occurs in cytoplasm
  • low ATP yield - 2 ATP
Term
2 forms of anareobic cellular respiration
Definition

lactic acid fermentation

  • occurs in muscles/bacteria
  • products: formation of lactic acid from glucose

 

alcoholic fermentation

  • occurs in yeast cells
  • products:  formation of alcohol & CO2 from glucose
Term
