AP Bio Final Review Photosynthesis/Respiration

Front

What is the final electron acceptor of aerobic respiration?

Back

Oxygen

Front

In aerobic respiration, what is the sequence of electron flow?

Back

Food → NADH → electron transport chain → oxygen

Front

What do the light reactions provide to the Calvin cycle?

Back

ATP and NADPH

Front

What happens to the pH of the mitochondrial matrix when electrons flow along the electron transport chain?

Back

The pH of the matrix increases.

Front

What is the primary function of the Calvin cycle?

Back

To produce simple sugars from carbon dioxide.

Front

What are the products of the light reactions of photosynthesis?

Back

ATP and NADPH.

Front

What is the role of NADH in cellular respiration?

Back

To carry electrons to the electron transport chain.

Front

What is the main purpose of the electron transport chain?

Back

To create a proton gradient for ATP synthesis.

Front

What is produced during the Calvin cycle?

Back

Simple sugars (glucose) from carbon dioxide.

Front

How does ATP synthase function in cellular respiration?

Back

It uses the proton gradient to synthesize ATP from ADP and Pi.
