Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

I know that I don't have all of the terms for photosynthesis and cellular respiration...please let me know if you have any more :)!
Happy Studying!

Terms : Hide Images
A membrane-bound organelle that is the site of photosynthesis within the cell. It is located in all eukaryotic plant cells.
The narrow region between the inner and outer membranes of the chloroplast.
The site of the light-dependent part of photosyntesis and contains a lumen and a membrane.
Contains pigments, photosystems, ATP synthase, and an electron transport train and is responsible for the light-dependent aspect of photosynthesis.
A stack of thylakoids.
The connectors that bind different granum together.
The fluid that surround the thylakoids in the chloroplast and is the site of the Calvin Cycle of photosynthesis.
A plant pigment that reflects green light while absorbing all other wavelengths of light in the photosystem.
Sunlight + Water --> ATP + NADPH + Oxygen
ATP + NADPH + Carbon Dioxide --> G3P (Eventually Glucose) +Oxygen
Formed when water is split and light excites the electrons into travelling through the electron transport chain.
A molecule that is formed from ADP in the ATP Synthase where H+ ions move down their gradient.
Another name for the Calvin Cycle
The process in which carbon fixates to RuBP to form G3P (a sugar).
The number of cycles that the Calvin Cycle must travel in order to produce one glucose molecule.
The number of carbon dioxide molecules necessary for one cycle of the Calvin Cycle.
The process in which ATP is converted into glucose (energy storage).
The Calvin Cycle is a/ an _____________ process.
The inner part of the mitochondria where the Kreb's Cycle occurs.
The location of the glycolysis process in the cell.
Folds on the inner membrane where the ETC occurs.
The process that creates 2 pyruvate molecules.
The process that breaks down glucose molecules.
The production of ATP by the direct transfer of a high-energy phosphate group from an intermediate substrate in a biochemical pathway to ADP.
Products are NADH, 2 ATP, and 2 Pyruvate
The number of steps in glycolysis.
The Krebs Cycle is also known as the __________.
An enzyme that pyruvate is converted into before it enters the Krebs Cycle.
Products are ATP, FADH2, NADH, and carbon dioxide
Number of steps in the Krebs Cycle
Binds with the Acetyl CoA to begin the Krebs Cycle.
Increase the surface area of the mitochondria's inner membrane to allow for cellular respiration.
Produces water as a by-product.
The two types of fermentation.
The anaerobic alternative to cellular respiration.
Plants that spacially seperates the processes of photosynthesis and uses different enzymes to prevent photorespiration.
The type of plant that avoids photorespiration by opening their stomata at night and closing them within the day (time).
A part of light-dependent reactions that contains a light-harvesting complex and a reaction-center complex.
The only product of the cyclic flow of the light-dependent reaction.
The number of ATP molecules necessary to create one G3P molecule in the Calvin Cycle.
The number of NADPH molecules necessary to create one G3P molecule in the Calvin Cycle.
The combination of the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis.
The ETC is a/ an __________ process.
The final acceptor of electrons in the ETC that forms water.
Allows for glycolysis to run continuosly without oxygen.
Regenerates the NAD+ necessary to run glycolysis.
The location of the fermentation process in the cell.

Need Notes?

While we strive to provide the most comprehensive notes for as many high school textbooks as possible, there are certainly going to be some that we miss. Drop us a note and let us know which textbooks you need. Be sure to include which edition of the textbook you are using! If we see enough demand, we'll do whatever we can to get those notes up on the site for you!
