Know the examples given for the importance of photosynthesis.
- What metabolic process consumes CO2
[can you list 4 processes by name]
- What metabolic processes produce CO2
[can you list 3 processes by name]
- What metabolic process consumes O2
[can you list 2 processes by name]
- What metabolic processes produce or supply electrons to electron carriers
[name two processes in respiration]
- What metabolic processes removes electrons from electron carriers? [name
three processes in respiration]
- In what metabolic process is ATP produced during respiration [3 processes by name]?
- Compare Aerobic vs. Anaerobic respiration
- Why is O2 needed during respiration?
- Which metabolic pathway of respiration yields the most ATP?
- Under what conditions is ethanol produced during respiration?
- Under what conditions is lactate produced during respiration?
- Where in the cell does glycolysis occur? Where does the Krebs cycle
occur? Where does the electron transfer phosphorylation
(chain) occur for
cellular respiration?
- What are the respiratory gases?
