    Study Notes

    General Biology 2nd Quarter Mastery Test - Multiple Choice

    • High-energy phosphate bonds: Found in ATP, not NADH, NADPH, or FADH2.
    • Most ATP in cellular respiration: Produced during the electron transport chain.
    • Light-dependent reaction (photosynthesis): Photolysis (splitting water) is part of this reaction; photoreduction is not.
    • ATP molecule parts: Adenine, phosphate group, and ribose.
    • ATP energy release: Removing a phosphate group releases energy.
    • ATP in human functions: Used for active transport, muscle contraction, and other cellular processes.
    • Photosynthesis start: Absorption of light by pigments in photosystem II.
    • Inaccurate photosynthesis statement: All stages of photosynthesis do not require light.
    • Plant experiments and conclusions: Different plants require different light amounts, not water.
    • Light-dependent reaction steps: Light absorption by photosystem II, electron transport chain, and ATP production via photolysis. Producing high energy sugars is a light-independent reaction.
    • Visible spectrum and chlorophyll: Chlorophyll absorbs mostly violet and red light, and reflects green light causing plants to appear green.
    • Chlorophyll function: Chlorophyll absorbs light energy and facilitates in the splitting of water molecules. It is essential for photosynthesis and is dominantly green in colour, absorbs light energy during photosynthesis.
    • Calvin Cycle (light-independent): Process involving the conversion of carbon dioxide into glucose using ATP and NADPH.
    • Calvin Cycle Steps: Carbon dioxide enters, combines with RuBP, forms PGA, and eventually glucose.
    • ATP and NADPH in Calvin cycle: Required to reduce carbon dioxide into glucose.
    • Carbon dioxide removal: Removal of carbon dioxide would prevent sugar production.
    • Cellular Respiration equation: Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy
    • Aerobic/Anaerobic respiration similarity: Both processes utilize glycolysis.
    • Glycolysis location: Cytoplasm.
    • Cellular respiration steps: Glycolysis, Krebs cycle, electron transport chain.
    • Pyruvate fate (aerobic): Enters the mitochondria for the Krebs cycle.
    • Kreb's cycle enzyme: Citrate synthase is an enzyme in the Krebs cycle.
    • Aerobic vs. Anaerobic respiration: Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, anaerobic respiration does not.
    • Glycolysis role: Part of both aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
    • ATP production in cellular respiration: 36-38 ATP molecules are generated per glucose molecule in aerobic respiration.
    • Cellular respiration products: Carbon dioxide, water, and ATP.
    • Causes of muscle cramps: Accumulated lactic acid during intense exercises as a result of oxygen scarcity in the muscle.

    Additional Concepts

    • Photosynthesis vs Cellular respiration: Photosynthesis converts light energy to chemical energy; Cellular respiration releases chemical energy for work.
    • Electron transport chain (ETC): Series of protein complexes that carry electrons to generate ATP during both cellular respiration and photosynthesis
    • Pyruvate processing (before Krebs): A crucial step converting pyruvate from glycolysis into Acetyl-CoA to provide substrates to the Krebs cycle.
    • Fermentation process: Provides ATP anaerobically. Produces ethanol or lactic acid and reduces cellular energy production.
    • Role of water in photosynthesis: Water is the source of electrons and hydrogen ions during light-dependent reactions.
    • Factors affecting photosynthesis/respiration: Light intensity, CO2 levels, temperature, water, and oxygen levels affect both processes.
