AP Bio Unit 3

Front

What is the main product of the light reactions in photosynthesis?

Back

Oxygen, NADPH, and ATP are produced; glucose is not.

Front

What role does NADP+ play in photosynthesis?

Back

NADP+ acts as an electron carrier.

Front

What is the net ATP production from glycolysis?

Back

Glycolysis produces a net of 2 ATP.

Front

How is chemiosmosis best described?

Back

Chemiosmosis is the use of a proton gradient to power ATP Synthase and produce ATP.

Front

Which color of light is most effective for photosynthesis?

Back

Red light is most effective for photosynthesis.

Front

What is the primary function of ATP in cellular processes?

Back

ATP serves as the main energy currency of the cell.

Front

Where does glycolysis occur in the cell?

Back

Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm.

Front

What is the significance of the proton gradient in cellular respiration?

Back

The proton gradient drives ATP synthesis during oxidative phosphorylation.

Front

What are the end products of glycolysis?

Back

The end products of glycolysis are 2 pyruvate, 2 ATP, and 2 NADH.

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily in the blue and red wavelengths.
