Cellular Energy (Metabolism) Study Guide Someone who is well prepared for the assessment will be able to do or answer

the following: Multiple Choice: 1. 2. 3. 4. Explain how energy is stored and released in a molecule What does phosphorylation do to a molecule? What is the function of glycolysis? What type of fermentation do humans (and other animals) do? How is this fermentation experienced by humans? 5. What is the role of the Krebs cycle in cellular respiration? 6. What is the role of fermentation in anerobic respiration? 7. What part of cellular respiration makes the most ATP? 8. SPECIFICALLY, why is oxygen needed for aerobic respiration? 9. What is the role of proton (H+) diffusion in the electron transport chain? 10. What are the steps involved in aerobic respiration (and what order)? Anaerobic respiration? 11. Where does each process involved in cellular respiration and photosynthesis happen in the cell? 12. Identify the types of organism that perform each step of cellular respiration and photosynthesis. 13. Determine which pathway is anabolic and which is catabolic. 14. How do the structures of the mitochondria and thylakoids aid its function? 15. How is the structure of a plant related to photosynthesis? 16. What is the sequence of events in photosynthesis? 17. How is proton diffusion related to ATP synthesis? 18. Why must plants synthesize ATP to make protein? 19. What is the main function of each part of cellular respiration and photosynthesis? 20. Recognize a diagram of each of the main parts of photosynthesis and cellular respiration

21. Why is water needed for photosynthesis? 22. How is oxygen produced in photosynthesis? 23. Determine whether photosynthesis or cellular respiration is being described by: o an equation o a summary o the waste produces o the reactants o type of pathway o location where it occurs Short Answer 1. Why do organisms breathe (which includes inhaling and exhaling)? (Hint: BE SPECIFIC! If you put, because theyll die without air or to get energy, you automatically fail the quiz.) Explain the role of metabolism (cellular respiration and photosynthesis) in the carbon cycle. (Hint: BE SPECIFIC!) Why does deforestation (cutting down trees without replanting) increase the likelihood of global warming? Explain why photosynthesis requires water. Give three ways that fermentation affects humans.
