During the dark reactions, atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) is
brought into the leaf through tiny pores called: - ANSWERS-Stomata
What is another name for the 2nd phase of photosynthesis? -
ANSWERS-Calvin Cycle
When leaf pigments absorb light, electrons are boosted to a higher
energy level, providing energy to: - ANSWERS-Produce ATP and
reduce NADP+
Photosynthesis is important anabolic pathway that uses atmospheric
carbon dioxide, water, and light energy to generate: - ANSWERS-
Glucose and oxygen
Write the basic equation of photosynthesis? - ANSWERS-Glucose +
oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + energy
C6H12O6+6O2→6CO2+6H2O+ATP
What is another name for the first phase of photosynthesis? -
ANSWERS-Light-dependent reactions
Within a chloroplast, there are little green stacks of green disks. What
are they called? - ANSWERS-Granum
,What molecule does DPIP replace (if anything)? - ANSWERS-The
molecule found in the chloroplast that DPIP replaced was NADP+.
What does DPIP do? - ANSWERS-DPIP changes the color as it
becomes reduced and colorless during the light independent reaction.
The purpose of the DPIP is to measure the light independent reaction
and to accept the electrons.
How is DPIP supposed to affect the spectrophotometer reading? -
ANSWERS-The DPIP changes from a blue substance to colorless
which in turn causes transmittance to increase.
Explain what happened in the photosynthesis post lab? - ANSWERS-
As time increased, the percent transmittance also increased for all four
conditions.
The first offspring produced from a monohybrid cross are called the -
ANSWERS-F1 generation
If you are investigating an allele that is X linked, how many copies
could be male organism have? - ANSWERS-1
Genetics is the study of - ANSWERS-Hereidity and vairation
What are the three reasons Mendel used peas? - ANSWERS-Easy to
grow, cross-fertilize, mature quickly
, True or False: Gametes are haploids and adult cells are diploids -
ANSWERS-True
The genetic composition of an organism is known as the organism's -
ANSWERS-Genotype
If an organism contains two different alleles for a trait, it is said to be
- ANSWERS-Heterozygote
True or False: Parents can only give 1 copy of their two alleles to their
offspring - ANSWERS-True
Who is known as the founder of genetics? - ANSWERS-Gregor
Mendel
What is a concern about using GMO plants? - ANSWERS-The long
lasting effects of these chemicals on the environment and human
health.
Order of the three steps for PCR cycle? - ANSWERS-Denaturation,
Annealing, Extension
Why do farmers who plant Bt crops don't have to use pesticides? -
ANSWERS-It produces a toxic protein inside their cells
