Multiple Choice

Which equation best describes a method of anaerobic respiration?

• A. Glucose yields energy and lactic acid.

• B. Glucose and oxygen yield lactic acid and water.

• C. Glucose and lactic acid yield energy and carbon dioxide.

• D. Glucose and oxygen yield energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Multiple Choice

Which statement best describes the way that an adenosine diphosphate (ADP) molecule becomes an adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecule in the human body?

• A. Protein causes phosphate molecules to bind to sugars and form ATP.

• B. Food energy is used to attach a phosphate molecule to an ADP molecule.

• C. Ionized oxygen in cells causes sugars and phosphate molecules to form ATP.

• D. Water breaks down ADP molecules which form into ATP molecules over time.

Multiple Choice

Which reactants of aerobic cellular respiration are the byproducts of photosynthesis?

• A. glucose and water

• B. oxygen and glucose

• C. carbon dioxide and water

• D. oxygen and carbon dioxide

Multiple Choice

Which of the following does NOT describe a similarity between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

• A. Both transform food into energy.

• B. Both are transformations of energy.

• C. Both involve the exchange of gases.

• D. Both are necessary for life on Earth.

Multiple Choice

A weightlifter is using heavy weights in short bursts for a competition. Because his muscle cells are not able to take in enough oxygen to make very much ATP the weightlifter begins to get fatigue in his muscles. Which of the following processes is most likely going on in the muscles of the weightlifter as he competes in his event?

• A. As the cells run out of oxygen they switch to anaerobic respiration, which allows the cell to make small amounts of ATP in the absence of oxygen.

• B. As the cells run out of oxygen, they die off gradually and the weightlifter's muscles have fewer contracting muscle cells.

• C. The cells will never run out of oxygen if the weightlifter is breathing.

• D. As the cells run out of oxygen, they will continue to make the same amount of ATP, since oxygen is not required to make ATP.

Multiple Choice

Which tubes contains an organism(s) carrying on cellular respiration?

• A. tubes 1 and 2, only

• B. tubes 3 and 4, only

• C. tubes 2 and 4, only

• D. tubes 2, 3, and 4, only

Multiple Choice

Students set up the experiment shown in their Biology class. After 24 hours, students noticed gas had accumulated in one of the inverted test tubes. They measured the amount of gas. What would be a best explanation for the gas accumulated in one of the inverted test tubes?

• A. The students hypothesized that the light source is causing the water to evaporate causing water vapor to fill the top of the tube

• B. Metabolism of the elodea plants absorbed the CO2 from the water

• C. Heat from the light source caused the escape of the dissolved gas

• D. Light caused the elodea plants to photosynthesize, releasing O2 gas

Multiple Choice

Refer to the diagram provided. This cell can conduct cellular respiration. Name a product of cellular respiration that is used as a reactant in photosynthesis?

• A. O₂

• B. Glucose

• C. CO₂

• D. ATP

Multiple Choice

Aerobic cellular respiration takes place in the presence of oxygen and produces a large amount of energy. Carbon dioxide and water are produced as the waste products. Lactic acid fermentation takes place without the use of oxygen and produces small amounts of energy. In muscle tissue, what is the reactant of lactic acid fermentation and the product that builds up during intense exercise?

• A. Carbon dioxide and water

• B. Oxygen and Lactic Acid

• C. Glucose and other compounds

• D. Glucose and Lactic Acid
