bio 1108 exam 2 (herrick) Questions
With Correct Answers

photosynthesis - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-biochemical process for
| | | | | |



building carbohydrates using energy from sunlight and carbon dioxide
| | | | | | | | |



taken from the air
| | |




what is the photosynthesis equation? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-CO2 +
| | | | | | | | |



H2O ---> C6H12O6 + CO2
| | | |




reduction (in photosynthesis) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-molecules
| | | | | |



acquires electrons and gains energy
| | | |




oxidation - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-molecules loses electrons and
| | | | | | |



releases energy |




what is being reduced in the photosynthesis equation? - CORRECT
| | | | | | | | | |



ANSWER✔✔-CO2 ---> C6H12O6 | |




what is being oxidized in the photosynthesis equation? - CORRECT
| | | | | | | | | |



ANSWER✔✔-H2O ---> O2 | |

,who is the electron donor? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-water; oxygen is
| | | | | | | | | |



transformed as a by product | | | |




photosynthetic electron transport chain - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-series | | | | | | |



of reactions that links oxidation of water to reduction of carbon dioxide
| | | | | | | | | | |




where is the electron transport chain located? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-
| | | | | | | | |



the thylakoid membrane
| |




where does the light cycle occur? - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-the grana
| | | | | | | | |




calvin cycle - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-sugars are synthesized from CO2
| | | | | | | |




calvin cycle requires: - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-two molecules of NADH
| | | | | | | | |



and three molecules of ATP for each CO2 incorporated into
| | | | | | | | | |



carbohydrates


steps of the Calvin cycle - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-1. carboxylation
| | | | | | | |




2. reduction
|




3. regeneration
|




carboxylation - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-CO2 +(rubisco)+ RuBP = 2(3-PGA)
| | | | | | |

,-the addition of CO2 to the 5-carbon compound RuBP
| | | | | | | |




rubisco - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-catalyzes carboxylation reaction which
| | | | | | |



originally would take a long time
| | | | |




reduction (in Calvin cycle) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-3-PGA---(ATP and
| | | | | | | |



NAPH)----> triode phosphate | |




-NADPH transfers two electrons and one proton; inorganic phosphate is
| | | | | | | | | |



released


regeneration - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-triose phosphate -------(ATP)---->
| | | | | |



RuBP ---> beginning of cycle
| | | |




-(regeneration of RuBP) a multistep process where 3-carbon compounds
| | | | | | | |



are reorganized and combined to produce RuBP
| | | | | | |




light reaction - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-water is broken apart in the
| | | | | | | | | |



chlorophyll molecule into H+ and OH- ions in the presence of light,
| | | | | | | | | | | |



resulting in the formation of NADPH and ATP
| | | | | | |

, photosystems - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-PSI and PSII; protein-pigmented | | | | | | |



complexes; the functional and structural unit that absorbs light energy
| | | | | | | | | |



and uses it to drive electron transport
| | | | | |




chlorophyll light absorption - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-z-scheme;
| | | | | |



absorption of visible light by an antenna chlorophyll results in the
| | | | | | | | | | |



transfer of energy to an electron in a neighboring chlorophyll molecule
| | | | | | | | | |




reaction center - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-configured pair of chlorophyll
| | | | | | | |



molecules where energy is transfered to, then converted to chemical
| | | | | | | | | |



energy (from antennae chlorophyll)
| | |




PSII - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-energizes electrons to the beginning go the
| | | | | | | | |



electron transport chain; when it loses an electron, it is able to pull
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |



electrons from water | |




PSI - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-energizes electrons with a second input of
| | | | | | | | | |



light energy so that they can be used to reduce NADP+
| | | | | | | | | |




cytochrome-b6f complex - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-where electrons pass | | | | | | |



between photosystems |




cyclic electron transport - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-electrons from PSI are
| | | | | | | | |



redirected from ferredoxin back into the electron transport chain
| | | | | | | |
