AP Bio Cellular Energetics Review

Front

What is the primary function of the light dependent reactions of photosynthesis?

Back

To produce NADPH and ATP.

Front

Where does glycolysis occur?

Back

Cytosol.

Front

What is chemiosmosis?

Back

The process where ATP is synthesized when H+ ions move through a channel in ATP synthase.

Front

What is the first step in both anaerobic and aerobic respiration?

Back

Glycolysis.

Front

What is the end product of glycolysis?

Back

2 ATP, 2 Pyruvates, and 2 NADH.

Front

Do fungi use photosynthesis?

Back

No, fungi only use cellular respiration.

Front

What is the role of NADPH in photosynthesis?

Back

NADPH is used as a reducing agent in the Calvin cycle.

Front

What is the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?

Back

Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, while anaerobic respiration does not.

Front

Where does the Krebs cycle occur?

Back

In the mitochondrial matrix.

Front

What is the main purpose of the electron transport chain?

Back

To create a proton gradient that drives ATP synthesis.
