A. Oxygen
B. Nitrogen
C. Carbon dioxide
D. Hydrogen
Answer: Plants take in carbon dioxide, which is reduced to make glucose during photosynthesis.
A. Outer membrane
B. Inner mitochondrial membrane
C. Cytoplasm
D. Stroma
Answer: The electron transport chain is embedded in the folded inner mitochondrial membrane.
A. Drinking large amounts of water
B. Rapid deep breathing after exercise
C. Eating sugar
D. Resting and sleeping
Answer: Increased breathing after exercise supplies extra oxygen to clear accumulated lactic acid.
A. Anaerobic
B. Aerobic
C. Fermentation
D. Photolysis
Answer: Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and produces more energy than anaerobic respiration.
A. Carbon dioxide
B. Water
C. Oxygen
D. NAD+
Answer: Oxygen accepts electrons and hydrogen ions at the end of the electron transport chain.
A. Aerobic
B. Anaerobic
C. Photorespiration
D. Transpiration
Answer: Anaerobic respiration occurs without oxygen and yields less energy per glucose.
A. Glycolysis
B. Krebs cycle
C. Electron transport chain
D. Photolysis
Answer: Decarboxylation reactions in the Krebs cycle release carbon dioxide.
A. The factor present in greatest supply
B. The factor present in least supply
C. The sum of all the factors
D. Only the amount of chlorophyll
Answer: The factor present in the least amount limits the rate of photosynthesis even if other factors are abundant.
A. Ethanol and carbon dioxide
B. Carbon dioxide, water and energy
C. Lactic acid and energy
D. Glucose and oxygen
Answer: Aerobic respiration oxidizes glucose completely to carbon dioxide and water, releasing energy.
A. 2
B. 36 to 38
C. 100
D. 12
Answer: Glycolysis, the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain together produce about 36 to 38 ATP per glucose.
A. Photosynthesis
B. Transpiration
C. Cellular respiration
D. Digestion
Answer: Cellular respiration breaks down glucose in cells to release energy stored as ATP.
A. Ethanol
B. Lactic acid
C. Carbon dioxide
D. Acetyl-CoA
Answer: Muscle cells reduce pyruvate to lactic acid when oxygen is unavailable.
A. NADPH
B. NAD+
C. ATP
D. ADP
Answer: NADP+ picks up hydrogen ions and electrons to form NADPH, which is used in the dark reaction.
A. Sucrose
B. Starch
C. Glucose
D. Amino acid
Answer: Excess glucose is polymerized and stored in the plant as starch.
A. Lactic acid
B. Ethanol and carbon dioxide
C. Citric acid
D. Acetic acid
Answer: Yeast carries out alcoholic fermentation, producing ethanol and carbon dioxide from glucose.
A. Photosynthesis
B. Cellular respiration
C. Osmosis
D. Transpiration
Answer: Cellular respiration breaks down glucose and traps the released energy in ATP.
A. 0.7
B. 0.8
C. 1
D. 1.5
Answer: Carbohydrates produce equal volumes of CO2 and use equal volumes of O2, so the RQ is 1.
A. Glucose
B. 3-phosphoglyceric acid
C. Pyruvic acid
D. RuBP
Answer: Carbon dioxide combines with RuBP and is quickly converted into 3-phosphoglyceric acid, a three-carbon compound.
A. Chloroplast
B. Ribosome
C. Mitochondria
D. Vacuole
Answer: The mitochondrion is the powerhouse of the cell where the Krebs cycle and electron transport chain occur.
A. 0.7
B. 1
C. 1.2
D. 2
Answer: Fats consume more oxygen than carbohydrates, giving an RQ of about 0.7.
