Answers to Photosynthesis/Cellular Respiration Worksheet
PS:
1. Water
2. Thylakoid Membrane
3. Oxygen
4. To pump protons from stroma to inside of thylakoid; ultimately to
generate ATP as the protons flow back to the stroma
5. ATP and NADPH + H+
6. Rubisco is light-activated (and these reactions require the products of
the light reactions indicated in #5).
7. Rubisco also fixes oxygen
8. First molecule formed upon fixing CO2 is a 4 carbon
molecule; PEPC (PEP carboxylase)
9. Dry and warm
10. Open stomates at night to avoid water loss.
11. Magnesium.
CR:
1. NADH + H+
2. Cristae of the mitochondria
3. Oxygen molecules; they are the final electron acceptor.
4. True
5. 38; 3
6. Glycolysis and fermentation (aerobic respiration is glycolysis,
the Krebs' cycle and oxidative phosphorylation)
7. (two) pyruvates
8. in the cytoplasm; to recycle NAD+ for use in glycolysis
9. exergonic
10. 2; 2
11. as waste Carbon Dioxide (produced inside the matrix of the
mitochondria, mostly during the Krebs' cycle).
12. 2 carbons; Acetyl CoA
Chemiosmosis:
A channel protein and the enzyme ATP
synthetase; from inside thylkoid to stroma (inside chloroplasts); from
intermembrane space to matrix of mitochondria
