Cellular respiration and photosynthesis

When mammals get an infection, their internal body temperature often rises 2 or 3 degrees Celsius. The body gets the energy it needs to react to an infection by--

• increasing the rate of cellular division

• decreasing the rate of glucose movement into the cell

• increasing the rate of cellular respiration in mitochondria

• decreasing the rate at which carbon dioxide is removed from the cell

Which molecule synthesized by plants is a major source of energy for cellular process in both plants and animals ?

• wax

• nucleic acid

• glucose

• chlorophyll

Cells can generate as many as 36 to 38 molecule of a ATP from the metabolism of one molecule of glucose. Which cellular process results in this amount of ATP production?

• Anaerobic cellular respiration

• protein synthesis

• aerobic cellular respiration

• photosynthesis

Which of these statements best explains the process of energy conversion that takes place in the mitochondria?

• Energy is required for carbon dioxide molecules to form six-carbon sugar molecules.

• water molecules and radiant energy are necessary for anaerobic respiration to take place

• oxygen molecules release energy in the form of heat during combustion reactions

• The energy in the bonds of glucose molecules is transferred to the phosphate bonds in ATP.

Cellular respiration involves an energy conversion. Which of the following represents the energy conversion that occurs during cellular respiration ?

• Light energy to chemical energy

• light energy to light energy

• chemical energy to light energy

• chemical energy to chemical energy

A sprig of an Elodea plant was placed in a test tube and placed under a light source for several hours. After several hours, small bubbles appeared.

Which product is an example of the gas bubbles in the above reaction?

• carbon dioxide

• hydrogen

• the presence of the nucleic aid

• a cell membrane

The diagram shows the compounds of processes that occur in the cells of organisms.

From the diagram, which compounds are the reactants of cellular respiration in the cells of a growing bean plant?

• Glucose and carbon dioxyde

• glucose, water and ATP

• Oxygen and carbon dioxide

• Oxygen and Glucose

Which of the following occurs after a virus attaches to a host cell in the viral reproduction process
