AP Biology Semester 1 review 2024/2025 new

update with questions and answers

1. Glycolysis - ANSWER- reactions, carried out in the cytoplasm, that break

down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate (3 carbon molecule),

producing two ATP molecules




2. Activation Energy - ANSWER- The energy needed to start a chemical

reaction




3. Calvin Cycle - ANSWER- Synthesizes sugar from the energy captured in

ATP and NADPH in the light reactions -associated with the stroma




4. Active Site - ANSWER- The region of an enzyme molecule that binds

substrates and performs the catalytic function of the enzyme.




5. Aerobic Respiration - ANSWER- oxygen-requiring reactions, occurring

in mitochondria

,6. Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) - ANSWER- A molecule composed of the

sugar ribose, the base adenine, and two phosphate groups




7. Matrix - ANSWER- the fluid contained within the inner membrane of the

mitochondrion




8. Krebs Cycle (citric acid cycle) - ANSWER- cycle series of reactions in

which pyruvate molecules produced are broken down to CO2, forming

ATP and NADH




9. Light Reactions - ANSWER- Chlorophyll and other molecules capture

sunlight energy and convert it to chemical energy stored in ATP and

NADPH-associated with the thylakoid




10.Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) - ANSWER- A molecule composed of

the sugar ribose, the base adenine, and three phosphate groups.




11.Noncompetitive Inhibition - ANSWER-

,12.Lactic acid fermentation - ANSWER- A series of anaerobic chemical

reactions using pyruvic acid that follows glycolysis and regenerates the

NAD+ needed for glycolysis to occur. Produces Lactic Acid, occurs in

bacteria and human muscle cells experiencing oxygen debt.




13.Alcoholic fermentation - ANSWER- A series of anaerobic chemical

reactions using pyruvic acid. Follows glycolysis and regenerates the

NAD+ needed for glycolysis to occur. Produces alcohol and CO2 as

byproducts, used by yeast cells in anaerobic conditions.




14.Competitive Inhibition - ANSWER- The process by which two ore more

molecules that are somewhat similar in structure compete for the active

site of an enzyme.




15.Stoma (stomata) - ANSWER- Pores in the epidermis-mouths of the plant-

open and close to exchange CO2, O2, and H2O vapor




16.Endergonic - ANSWER- Pertaining to a chemical reaction that requires

an input of energy.

, 17.Stroma - ANSWER- Fluid enclosed in the chloroplasts




18.Enzyme - ANSWER- A protein catalyst that speeds up the rate of specific

biological reactions.




19.Thylakoid - ANSWER- Inner most membrane of chloroplast arranged

into disk shaped stacks.




20.Exergonic - ANSWER- Pertaining to a chemical reaction that liberates

energy (either as heat or in the form of increased entropy); a "downhill"

reaction.




21.Metabolism - ANSWER- The sum of all chemical reactions that occur

within a single cell or within all cells of a multicellular organism.




22.Cell size is limited by - ANSWER- surface to volume ratios
