AP Biology: Unit 3 Review (CED)

Front

What process does NOT require oxygen?

Back

Glycolysis is the process that does not require oxygen.

Front

Which structure of a protein is unaffected by denaturation?

Back

The primary structure of a protein is unaffected by denaturation.

Front

Describe the pathway of electrons in the light reactions of photosynthesis.

Back

The pathway of electrons in the light reactions is: H2O → PSII → ETC → PSI → NADPH.

Front

What environmental conditions can cause denaturation of an enzyme?

Back

Extreme increase in temperature and pH changes can cause denaturation of an enzyme.

Front

Where on an enzyme does the substrate bind?

Back

The substrate binds at the active site of the enzyme.

Front

What is glycolysis?

Back

Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose into pyruvate, producing ATP and NADH.

Front

What is denaturation in proteins?

Back

Denaturation is the process where proteins lose their structure due to external stress, affecting their function.

Front

What is the role of the active site in enzymes?

Back

The active site is the region on an enzyme where substrates bind and undergo a chemical reaction.

Front

What is oxidative phosphorylation?

Back

Oxidative phosphorylation is the process of ATP production in the mitochondria, using the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis.

Front

What is the Krebs Cycle?

Back

The Krebs Cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle, is a series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to generate energy.
