Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

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 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 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 excited the electrons through the electron transport train
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 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.
Products are NADH, 2 ATP, and 2 Pyruvate
The Krebs Cycle is also known as the __________.
Products are ATP, FADH2, NADH, and carbon dioxide
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.
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 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.
