Photorespiration - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

What is an autoroph?make their own food (photosynthesis) What is a heterotroph?An organism that cannot make its own food; a consumer what is the difference between an autotroph and a heterotroph?autotrophs make their own food while heterotrophs can't make it's own food what is photorespiration?a respiratory process in many higher plants by which they take up oxygen in the light and give out some carbon dioxide, contrary to the general pattern of photosynthesis

Who uses photosynthesis? - Answer autotrophs Where does photosynthesis occur? - Answer chloroplasts chemosyntheis - Answer used by prokaryotic autotrophs as an inorganic chemical reaction to produce energy heterotrophs - Answer require food and use cellular respiration to release energy from chemical bonds in the food who uses cellular respiration to release energy from stored food? - Answer all organisms light capturing events - Answer The first stage in photosynthesis; thylakoid...

Review the structure of the chloroplast and know where the light reaction and the Calvin cycle take place. Ans:Light reactions take place in the thylakoid membrane of the granum. The Calvin cycle takes place in the stroma (cytoplasm of the chloroplast). The light reaction of photosynthesis begins when pigments in the chloroplast absorb light energy (photons). At the end of the light reaction, where is the energy derived from the photons stored? Ans:In NADPH and ATP which are then used...

KSU Bio 198 Exam 6 Questions And Answers (Updated And Verified) The ______ photosynthetic pathway is where carbon dioxide is fixed by RUBISCO into sugars via the Calvin Cycle. It uses ATP, photorespiration is minimized, and it increases the rate of photosynthesis. - answerC4 In the ______ photosynthetic pathway, carbon dioxide is fixed by RUBISCO into sugars via the Calvin Cycle (just like in C4). - answerC3 The _____ photosynthetic pathway separates light-dependent reactions and uses car...

DAT Biology Final Exam Study Set 2024/2025 with Verified Q&A Carotenoids - CORRECT ANSWER-lipid derivatives, produce pigments in plants and animals , An accessory pigment, either yellow or orange, in the chloroplasts of plants. By absorbing wavelengths of light that chlorophyll cannot, carotenoids broaden the spectrum of colors that can drive photosynthesis. Porphyrins - CORRECT ANSWER-lipid derivatives, a group of light-sensitive, pigmented, ringed chemical structures that are requi...

T/F: as electrons are ejected from PSI they can enter a cyclic or non-cyclic pathway correct answer: true in which way is photosynthesis in plants different from that found in photosynthetic bacteria correct answer: plants have two reaction centers that generate oxygen (PSII) and NADPH (PSI) how does photophosphorylation differ from mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation correct answer: ATP synthase translocates protons out of the thylakoid space - mitochondria conduct the protons from...

The Calvin Cycle 3 Steps 1. Carbon Fixation 2. Reduction 3. Regeneration Carbon Fixation Turns 3 times, Involves the incorporation of CO2 molecules into RuBP using the enzyme RUBSICO, this produces 2 3-phosphoglycerate molecules Reduction Reduction and phosphorylation of 3-Phosphoglycerate to G3P, 6 ATP and 6 NADPH produce 6 G3P molecules *ONLY 1 G3P molecule Regeneration Using the 5 remaining G3P to regenerate the CO2 and RuBP (uses 3 more ATP) Where does the Calvin Cycle take place? Stroma...
