BIO 10 2nd LE Part 2

Cellular respiration
1. In which part of the cell does glycolysis happen? What are the two stages of glycolysis? How
many net ATPs are formed?
2. Anaerobic fermentation can be classified into two types. What are these? Indicate chemical
formula of significant products. Give examples.
3. Give the formula for respiratory quotient. Find the respiratory quotient if the final volumes in
flasks 1, 2, and 3 with Mus musculus as test object, are 143 mm3, 150 mm3, and 171 mm3. What
does it mean if you have an RQ of 1.
4. What do you call the small tube in part 2 of the experiment? What is a cofactor and how does
it function? What is the cofactor in the experiment? What is the expected result of part 2 in the
experiment?
5. Explain why fructose must result in the fastest rate of cellular respiration. Why is there no
respiration if lactose was used as substrate?
6. Why does oxidative phosphorylation in electron transport chain yield the highest amount of
energy?
7. What is the complex needed to generate ATP? What drives its function?
Photosynthesis
8. Draw a chloroplast and label its parts. Where do light-dependent reactions occur? Where do
light-independent reactions occur?
9. What is the significance of bromthymol blue and I 2KI? Give two possible reasons why there is
no starch in the leaves. What is the experimental variable in the experiment?
10. What are the two chlorophyll pigments found in green plants? Name at least 3 pigments and
give their colors.
11. Differentiate cyclic and non-cyclic photophosphorylation.
12. Where do the plants get electrons and oxygen from? Instead of oxygen, what is the product if
a photosynthetic organism uses hydrogen sulfide as electron donor?
13. Name the four complexes in the Z-scheme. Name at least one mobile electron carrier.
14. What is the enzyme that is most critical for carbon fixation in the Calvin-Benson Cycle?
Bonus.
Using the endosymbiotic theory, what can you conclude by studying the complexes in
mitochondria and chloroplasts?
