Q:l Thel catabolisml ofl al singlel moleculel ofl glucosel goesl throughl whatl
threel distinctl transitions?
Answer:
Thel breakdownl ofl glucosel goesl throughl (1)l glycolysis,l thenl (2)l fermentationl orl respiration,l andl finallyl throughl (3)l thel electronl transportl chain.
Q:l Whatl isl thel mostl energeticl transitionl inl thel catabolisml ofl glucose?
Answer:
Thel electronl transportl chainl yieldsl 34l ATPl whilel bothl glycolysisl andl fermentationl (orl respiration)l eachl yieldl onlyl 2l ATP.
Q:l Identifyl thel reactantsl ofl thel followingl chemicall equation:
Glucosel +l 2NAD+l ->l 2l NADHl +l 2l Pyruvatel +l 2ATP
Answer:
Thel reactantsl arel tol thel leftl ofl thel arrow:l Glucosel andl 2l NAD+.

Q:l Thel presencel ofl whatl moleculel 'signals'l tol thel celll thatl glycolysisl isl aboutl tol start?
Answer:
Glucose-6-phosphatel (G6P)
Q:l Truel orl False:l Inl thel absencel ofl oxygen,l fermentationl producesl onlyl 2l ATP.
Answer:
False.l
(Fermentationl onlyl reducesl NADHl backl tol NAD+.)
Q:l Whatl isl thel primaryl byproductl ofl thel TCAl cycle?
Answer:
Thel TCAl cyclel producesl anl abundancel ofl reducedl electronl carriersl (NADHl andl FADH2).
Q:l Truel orl False:l Thel reactantsl ofl thel TCAl cyclel directlyl enterl andl fuell thel electronl transportl system.
Answer: 2 / 4
False.l
(Thel productsl ofl thel TCAl cyclel (reducedl electronl carriers)l enterl andl drivel thel productionl ofl ATPl vial thel electronl transportl system.)
Q:l Describel thel relationshipl betweenl chloroplastsl andl chlorophyll.
Answer:
Bothl chloroplastsl andl chlorophylll arel associatedl withl photosynthesis.l Chloroplastsl arel thel doublel membrane-enclosedl organellesl thatl containl thel photosyntheticl pigmentl chlorophyll.
Q:l Truel orl False:l Chloroplastsl arel specificl tol algael andl plants.
Answer:
True
Q:l Thel processl ofl photophosphorylationl producesl what?
