HESI A2 BIOLOGY MATH READING
COMPREHENSION CHEMISTRY CERTIFICATION
EVALUATION EXAMS 2026 COMPLETE
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS GUARANTEED TO
PASS
◉ golgi apparatus.
Answer: packaging, processing, shipping from ER to outside cell
◉ lysosomes.
Answer: intracellular digestion. has hydrolytic enzymes that
hydrolyze proteins, fats, sugars, and nucleic acids
◉ vacuoles.
Answer: function depends on cell type. phagocytosis=uptake food
through cell membrane creating food vacuole. Plant=cells have
central vacuole for storage, waste disposal, protection, hydrolysis
◉ mitochondria.
Answer: cellular respiration (2 catabolic pathways)
◉ chloroplasts.
,Answer: plants photosynthesis
◉ cell membrane.
Answer: protection, communication, transportation of substances
inside and outside of cell
◉ cellular respiration.
Answer: 2 catabolic pathways that lead to cellular energy production
◉ cellular respiration formula.
Answer: C6H1206+6O2-->6CO2+6H20
◉ adenosine triphosphate.
Answer: ATP. cellular respiration currency
◉ nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide.
Answer: NADH. cellular respiration. reducing agent. vehicle of stored
energy
◉ glycolysis.
Answer: 1st step. convert glucose to pyruvate in cytosol. produces 2
ATP, 2 pyruvate, 2 NADH
, ◉ Krebs cycle.
Answer: 2nd step. in matrix of mitochondria. for one glucose=2 ATP,
2 pyruvate, 2 NADH
◉ electron transport chain.
Answer: 3rd step. begins with oxidation of NADH to produce oxygen
and water. For each glucose= 28-32 ATP
◉ overall production in cellular respiration.
Answer: 32-36 ATP per glucose
◉ photosynthesis.
Answer: reverse of cellular respiration.
6CO2+6H20+LIGHT ENERGY=C6H1206+6O2
the light reactions and calvin cycle
◉ light reactions.
Answer: convert solar energy to chemical energy. produces ATP by
using light energy to split water molecules and transfer the electron,
creating NADPH and ATP
◉ Calvin cycle.
