Mitochondria convert food to energy/ATP and are thus referred as the ‘powerhouses’ of a cell. This conversion of food to energy process is more efficient than the processes which rely on anaerobic energy production only. Name and explain the energy production process carried out by mitochondria.

Plant cells can perform both photosynthesis and cellular respiration. These two processes depend upon each other.  Describe in detail the relationship between carbon dioxide and glucose in plant cells. Include a description of the processes in which each is used and give the name of the organelle where each of these processes occurs.

During aerobic respiration, in heterotrophic organisms, which of the following is a substrate molecule that will be oxidized as it is converted into product molecules? diatomic oxygen carbon dioxide glucose water CO2

The sodium/potassium ATPase pump hydrolyzes one molecule of ATP in order to transport: two potassium ions into the cytoplasm, and three sodium ions to the exterior three sodium ions into the cytoplasm, and two potassium ions to the exterior two sodium ions into the cytoplasm, and three potassium ions to the exterior three potassium ions into the cytoplasm, and two sodium ions to the exterior two sodium ions to the exterior, and three potassium ions into the cytoplasm

Consider a triglyceride molecule (dietary fat) and it’s components. If a cell uses a triglyceride molecule as an energy source, at which processes (stages) of cell respiration do the components enter cell respiration?   3.Which phosphate bond in ATP is broken or made to release or contain energy? 4.Cellular respiration in eukaryotic cells is aerobic. Briefly define the term aerobic. 5.Consider question #4above. Briefly describethe role or function of oxygen in cellular respiration? 6.At which stage is the greatest amount of carbon dioxide released? 7.What is the function of the molecule NADHand FADH2? 8.What is the role of protons (hydrogen ions)in the electron transport chain. 9.Briefly describe the function of ATP synthase. 10.Briefly describe the mechanism of action for the poison cyanide.

ATP synthase attaches a phosphate group to ADP, forming ATP   .This process requires energy. The energy is provided by electron carrier molecules in the electron transport system that pump ___________into the intermembrane space (also called outer compartment). When these move back into the ___________, they must move through ATP synthase. This movement through ATP synthase provides the power needed by ATP synthase to push the third phosphate group onto ADP.        protons (H+ ions);  mitochondrial matrix    protons; intermembrane space    electrons; intermembrance space   electrons; mitochondrial matrix

ATP synthesis in mitochondria requires all of the following EXCEPT (select two answers) a hydrogen ion concentration gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane the oxidation of dinucleotide molecules that act as electron carriers fermentation of pyruvate into lactate to regenerate NAD+ the reduction O2, forming H2O the breakdown of glucose

Below is an Image of mitochondria, identify which numbered area respond to outer membrane, inner membrane, intermbrane and matrix described where the process of glycosis, pyruvates oxidation, citric acid cycle and electron transport occur.

explain why the statement is correct. Within the eukaryotic cell, most of the energy stored in ATP is produced through the: mitochondrion completing the oxidation of pyruvate (3 carbon chains)

Glycolysis is: (Choose all that are correct.) a process only done in eukaryotic cells a process that begins the breakdown of glucose a process that produces 4 ATP a process that occurs in the cytoplasm
