#1
Front (Question)

The first step in glycolysis is the phosphorylation of glucose. What does this cause to happen?

Back (Answer)

Instability in the glucose molecule

#2
Front (Question)

Which of the following statements best explains the reason why enzymes increase reaction rates?

Back (Answer)

The enzyme lowers the activation energy

#3
Front (Question)

does Oxygen accept protons in Aeropbic respiration

Back (Answer)

Yes by making water

#4
Front (Question)

what is photolysis

Back (Answer)

the decomposition or separation of molecules by the action of light.

#5
Front (Question)

how do enzymes catalyze reactions

Back (Answer)

lower activation energy

#6
Front (Question)

Competitive and non competitive inhibitors

Back (Answer)

#7
Front (Question)

When you phosphorylate a molecule what happens

Back (Answer)

it becomes less stable, similar to phosphorylating ADP

#8
Front (Question)

Where is ATP synthase in photosynthesis

Back (Answer)

Stroma

#9
Front (Question)

What is action spectrum

Back (Answer)

A graph showing the rate of photosynthesis at different wavelengths of light and shows which wavelengths of light increase rate of photosynthesis the most

#10
Front (Question)

Outline the effects of temperature, light intensity and carbon dioxide concentration on the rate of photosynthesis.

Back (Answer)

As temperature increases, the rate of photosynthesis increases more and more steeply until the optimum temperature is reached. If temperature keeps increasing above the optimum temperature then photosynthesis starts to decrease very rapidly. As light intensity increases so does photosynthesis until a certain point. At a high light intensities photosynthesis reaches a plateau and so does not increase any more. At low and medium light intensity the rate of photosynthesis is directly proportional to the light intensity. As the carbon dioxide concentration increases so does the rate of photosynthesis. There is no photosynthesis at very low levels of carbon dioxide and at high levels the rate reaches a plateau.

#11
Front (Question)

How does light intensity affect rate of photosynthesis

Back (Answer)

Higher light intensity speeds up reactions causing the reactions to speed up 2) temp rises and denaturing can occur furthermore the production of NADPH can accumulate in light dependant reactions 3)Plant cannot absorb CO2 fast enough further slowing down 4) If light intensity is at 0%, aka no light, Light dependant reactions cannot proceed and thus no photosynthesis

#12
Front (Question)

effect of CO2 levels on photosynthesis

Back (Answer)

1) When Co2 is initially added, the rate of photosynthesis is increased 2) after Co2 is too high, accumulation begins and the rate begins to slow down 3) if Co2 levels are 0, no photosynthesis 4) the enzymes responsible for carbon fixation are saturated once too much co2

#13
Front (Question)

why does rate of photosyntehsis plateau after a point

Back (Answer)

all available chlorophyll are saturated with light

#14
Front (Question)

3 Stages of Calvin cycle

Back (Answer)

1) Co2 fixation 2) reduction reaction 3)RUBP regeneration
