BIOLOGY 109 CHAPTER #6 EXAM
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Is cellular respiration an endergonic or exergonic process? - ANSWER-exergonic

What is an endergonic process? - ANSWER-a process that requires energy

What is an exergonic process? - ANSWER-a process that releases energy

Is photosynthesis an endergonic or exergonic reaction? - ANSWER-endergonic

The process of cellular respiration produces approximately _____ ATP molecules for
each molecule of glucose - ANSWER-32

Glucose is the ______ substrate for cellular respiration, however if there is not
enough, fatty acids or amino acids can enter at a different time and produce a similar
result. - ANSWER-preferred

Cellular respiration is comprised of ___ phases or steps - ANSWER-4

In cellular respiration, energy is released in _______ amounts - ANSWER-small

In cellular respiration, energy is _____ by a _____ system - ANSWER-captured,
biological

In cellular respiration, energy is stored in _____ - ANSWER-ATP

During cellular respiration, energy is released in small amounts because there are
_______ chemical reactions occuring one step at a time. - ANSWER-multiple

If cellular respiration only occured in one step, it would be difficult for the cell to
______, and the organism would _______ because more energy would be lost as
______. - ANSWER-absorb all of the energy it needs to make ATP, overheat, heat

Oxydation-reduction (redox) reaction - ANSWER-movement of electrons from one
molecule to another

What is the short name for an oxidation-reduction reaction? - ANSWER-redox

In living organisms, oxidation and reduction reactions typically happen _____. -
ANSWER-together

Oxidation - ANSWER-loss of electrons

What are the reactants of photosynthesis? - ANSWER-water and carbon dioxide

What are the products of photosynthesis? - ANSWER-glucose and oxygen

, What are the reactants of cellular respiration? - ANSWER-glucose and oxygen

What are the products of cellular respiration? - ANSWER-water and carbon dioxide
(and ATP)

Is cellular respiration an aerobic or anaerobic process? - ANSWER-aerobic

Aerobic process - ANSWER-a process in which oxygen is required

Animals and plants are very close in nature because the ______ animals breathe out
is used to by plants to produce their food and let out oxygen, and the _______
produced by plants is required for cellular respiration. - ANSWER-carbon dioxide,
oxygen

What is the difference between cellular respiration and breathing? - ANSWER-
cellular respiration is a chemical reaction happening 24/7 at the cellular level of an
organism, breathing is the mechanism that organisms use to get rid of the carbon
dioxide and bring fresh oxygen into their bodies

(H+) is equal to ______. - ANSWER-1 proton

In chemistry and cellular respiration , H+ is also seen as 1 _______. - ANSWER-
proton

1 proton is the same thing as 1 hydrogren ______. - ANSWER-ion

When talking about the movement of protons, we are actually talking about the
movement of ________. - ANSWER-hydrogen ions (H+)

In cellular respiration, glucose ____ hydrogan atoms, and becomes ______ to CO2 -
ANSWER-loses, oxidized
