Glycolysis Worksheet ? Answer Sheet 1. Explain why the phosphate end of ATP stores potential energy. Each of the phosphate groups is negatively charged. These negative repel each other and so they would have less energy if they were further apart. 2. Which has more potential energy, ATP or ADP? ATP has more potential energy than ADP since it has three negatively charged phosphates held together vs only two in ADP. 3. Write the overall reaction for cellular respiration. Glucose + 6 O2 6 CO2 + 6 H2O (+ energy in the form of ATP and heat) 4. What atom is known as an ?electron grabber? because it attracts electrons so strongly? oxygen 5. What is an electron transport chain?

AP Biology Chapters 8-10 Vocabulary Chapter 8: Activation energy: the amount of energy that reactants must absorb before a chemical reaction will start Active site: the specific portion of an enzyme that attaches to the substrate by means of weak chemical bonds ATP: an adenine-containing nucleoside triphosphate that releases free energy when its phosphate bonds are hydrolyzed. This energy is used to drive endergonic reactions in cells Catalyst: a chemical agent that changes the rate of a reaction without being consumed by the reaction. Coenzyme: an organic molecule serving as a cofactor. Most vitamins function as coenzymes in important metabolic reactions

Stomates ? In plants, a mite opening bordered by guard cells in the epidermis of leaves and stems; water passes out of a plant Mesophyll cells ? the photosynthetic parenchyma of a leaf, located within the epidermis Thylakoid Membranes ? in chloroplasts, a complex,organized internal membrane composed of flattened disks, which contain the photosystems involved in the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. Stroma ? In chloroplasts, the molecules from CO2.semi-liquid substance that surrounds the thylakoid system and that contains the enzymes needed to assemble organic

Photosynthesis Wednesday, March 06, 2013 11:00 PM ? Photosynthesis Photosynthesis - the process of converting energy in sunlight to energy in chemical bonds, especially glucose 6CO2 + 6H2O + light -> C6H12O6 + 6O2 Begins with light-absorbing pigments in plant cells A pigment molecule is able to absorb energy from light only within a narrow range of wavelengths In order to absorb as much of the entire bandwidth from sunlight as possible, different pigments, capable of absorbing different wavelengths, act together to optimize energy absorption These pigments include the green chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b and the carotenoids, which are red, orange, or yellow
