Cell Chemistry Quiz
What is the formula in cellular respiration ?
C6H12O6+ 6O2--YIELD-- 36ATP+6H2O+6CO2
What is CO2 ?
Compound (Carbon Dioxide)
What is C6 H12 O6 ?
Compound (Glucose)
What is NaCI ?
Compound (Sodium Chloride or Salt)
What is H2O ?
Compound (Water)
What happens during photosynthesis ?
During photosynthesis light energy (sun) is changed into chemical energy (glucose)
What is O2 ?
Element (Oxygen)
Fermentation in our muscle cells produces what ?
Fermentation in our muscle cells produces lactic acid- which leads to muscle fatigue
Examples of molecules are...
O2 H2 C4 subscripts are there
What does photosynthesis stand for ?
Photo(light) sythe (put together/combining) sis (process/ series of steps)
When yeast does fermentation what happens ?
When yeasts do this alcohol is produced- like in wine or beer production
What is an Element?
a molecule made up of the same kind of atom
What is a Compound?
a molecule made up of two or more different atoms for example water or carbon dioxide CO2 H2O SO4
Where does fermentation occur ?
in fruits, bacteria, molds, yeast, and mammalian muscle cells
Where does photosynthesis occur?
in the chloroplasts of plant cells
What is the reactant ?
the first part of the formula
What is the product ?
the last part of the formula
Do cells need take in nonliving chemicals to perform life processes, such as photosynthesis and cell respiration ?
yes
What is the formula for photosynthesis ?
6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight --YIELD-- C6H12O6+ 6O2
How does cellular respiration occur ?
Glucose will break into water and carbon dioxide and release energy The energy is carried through an organism in a compound called ATP
Does fermentation produce more or less ATP than cellular respiration ?
Less only 2 ATP
What does 6CO2 represent ?
The formula tells that there are six molecules of carbon dioxide (CO2)
What is a Molecule?
a group of two or more atoms joined together mono = one di=two
Examples of compounds are...
water or carbon dioxide CO2 H2O SO4
Does a formula for a molecule give you information about the substance ?
yes
What does a Coefficient tell you?
how many molecules are in total
What does a Subscript tell you ?
how many of just that atom there is
Examples of elements are...
hydrogen or oxygen H3 O2' subscripts are there
Where is cellular respiration conducted ?
in the mitochondria Both plant and animal cells carry out this process
When does fermentation occur ?
occurs when there is not enough oxygen (although yeast prefers this method even when oxygen is present)
