CIA 2: Cell Energy and Ecology Review

Front

What is the role of a shrew in a food web if a grasshopper is removed?

Back

The shrew would be most affected as it relies on the grasshopper as a food source.

Front

What part of cellular respiration produces the most ATP?

Back

The Electron Transport Chain (ETC) produces the most ATP.

Front

What type of symbiotic relationship exists between cattle egrets and cattle?

Back

Commensalism, where the egret benefits without harming the cattle.

Front

What is the second step of cellular respiration?

Back

The Kreb's Cycle is the second step of cellular respiration.

Front

In a food web, what is a mouse classified as if it eats primary consumers?

Back

A mouse is classified as a Secondary Consumer.

Front

Define primary consumer.

Back

Primary consumers are organisms that eat producers (plants) for energy.

Front

What is the function of glycolysis in cellular respiration?

Back

Glycolysis breaks down glucose into pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP.

Front

Explain the Kreb's Cycle in cellular respiration.

Back

The Kreb's Cycle processes pyruvate to produce electron carriers (NADH, FADH2) and ATP.

Front

What is the difference between mutualism and parasitism?

Back

Mutualism benefits both species, while parasitism benefits one at the expense of the other.

Front

What is the significance of the Electron Transport Chain?

Back

The ETC is crucial for producing the majority of ATP during cellular respiration.
