Cellular metabolism questions. Are you smart enough to answer these

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 13-01-23] [Hit: ]
Many bacteria can ferment glucose to make lactic acid. This is the same bacteria added to milk to make cheese. what is the importance of lactic acid fermentation to making cheese? (hunt: try adding something acidic to milk and seeing what happens).*. under what conditions would the guard cells on a leaf close?......
which questions can you answer with the correct answer??

1. Why doesnt the body just "spend" glucose directly for its energy needs?

2. Explain how cellular respiration and photosynthesis are related chemically.

3. In glycosis, explain why only two of the four ATP molecules produced are counted as products.

4. WHat is cellular respiration used for?

5. Explain in teh context of respiration why a person breathes heavily during heavy exercise

6. Why do muscles become sore after long periods of strenuous activity?

7. Many bacteria can ferment glucose to make lactic acid. This is the same bacteria added to milk to make cheese. what is the importance of lactic acid fermentation to making cheese? (hunt: try adding something acidic to milk and seeing what happens).

*. under what conditions would the guard cells on a leaf close?

9. Why are stomates on the bottom of a leaf?

10. Why are the cells containing chloroplasts on the top of the leaf?

11. Light comes in a variety of colours and those colours are determined by their wavelength. Out of the seven colours of light in the spectrum (red orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet), which colours does the plant use for photosynthesis?

12. What is the difference in the meaning between "light independent' and "dark"?

13. What is the ultimate purpose of the light-dependent reactions?

14. What is the CO2 captured by the leaf used for in photosynthesis???

1. because it needs to convert it to a usable energy source. You need oxygen (a result of glycolysis) to function (for humans).
2. cellular respiration needs oxygen to continue (otherwise the whole process will be backed up) and it creates CO2 as a waste product. Photosynthesis needs CO2 to produce sugars and releases oxygen as a waste product.
3. The two ATP molecules are net products. Even though four ATP molecules are created, two ATP molecules were used to start the process.
4. cellular respiration is used to create H2O
5. because a person loses lots of energy so they need to gain more oxygen so they can continue to produce energy.
6. skeletal muscle
8. when it is very dry outside so it closes in order to keep as much H2O inside the plant as possible
9. so that they do not get dried out easily.
10. because they can photosynthesize --> gets sunlight by being on the top of the leaf
11. red, orange, yellow, blue, indigo, violet
12. light independent --> needs light to start process
light dependent (dark) --> does not need light to process
13. it creates oxygen (as well as ATP and NADPH)
14. used to create plant matter
