explain in detail (in words) the Krebs cycle in cellular respiration
Which of the four stages of aerobic cellular respiration is most similar to the light-dependent reactions of oxygenic photosynthesis? Explain.
A culture of the single celled organism Chlamydomonas is actively carrying out photosynthesis in the presence of light and CO2. If you turned off the light, how would you expect the amounts of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate and 3-phosphoglycerate to change over the next minute? How about if you left the light on and removed the CO2? Please answer these questions with specific references to the Calvin cycle.

What is the alternative pathway that the cells would opt to respire?arrow_forwardWhy can the consumption of molecular oxygen indicate the metabolic rate of aerobic organisms?arrow_forwardA student lists some characteristics of anaerobic respiration. 1. It produces 36 molecules of ATP. 2. It uses oxygen to produce energy. 3. It occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. 4. It results in the production of lactic acid. Which characteristics did the student list incorrectly? Characteristics 2 and 3 are incorrect because anaerobic respiration produces energy without oxygen and occurs in the mitochondria of a cell. Characteristics 1 and 4 are incorrect because anaerobic respiration produces 2 molecules of ATP and does not produce lactic acid. Characteristics 3 and 4 are incorrect because anaerobic respiration occurs in the mitochondria of a cell and does not produce lactic acid. O Characteristics 1 and 2 are incorrect because anaerobic respiration produces 2 molecules of ATP and produces energy without oxygen.arrow_forward

Yes or No If not, what additional information would we need to know to tell whether the yeast used aerobic respiration or anaerobic (Ethanol) fermentation?arrow_forwardPhotosynthesis and aerobic cellular respiration both rely on electron transport chains to generate ATP. Which of the following does not correctly identify similarities and differences in the ETCs of these processes? a) Electrons delivered to the ETC are used to generate a proton gradient across the membrane b) In photosynthesis, the facilitated diffusion of protons across the membrane generates ATP and glucose molecules; in cellular respiration, this process generates ATP c) In photosynthesis, electrons are delivered to the ETC by NADPH; in cellular respiration, electrons are delivered to the ETC by NADH and FADH2 d) In prokaryotes, active transport moves protons across the cell’s plasma membrane during photosynthesis and cellular respirationarrow_forwardFor the following questions, choose one to discuss: chloroplast/photosynthesis State at the outset which one you will discuss.
