Front Back
Both cellular respiration and fermentation begin with what molecule?
Glucose
What reactant needed for cellular respiration is absent from the fermentation reaction?
Oxygen
What gas do organisms give off when they carry out cellular respiration?
Carbon Dioxide
Both fermentation and cellular respiration provide what molecule needed by cells?
ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate)
Do plant cells or animal cells carry on cellular respiration?
Both
Which process, fermentation or cellular respiration, results in an end product that contains C-H bonds?
Fermentation
Name the device that can measure the amount of gas given off by yeast.
Respriometer
Yeast cells carry out fermentation when they are supplied with what type of molecule?
Ethanol
During the fermentation experiment, the gas bubble got larger. What gas was causing this increase?
Release of Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
What role was played by KOH in the soybean experiment?
Absorbtion
In the germinating seed experiment, what do you call the tube that contains only glass beads?
Thermobarometer
What gas is being taken up when the marker in the side arm of a respirometer moves toward a tube that contains germinating seeds?
Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Carbon Dioxide
If you performed the cellular respiration experiment without soaking the cotton with KOH, what results would you predict? Why?
No net change for vial 1 in addition to 2.
Why? The carbon dioxide given off in vial 1 will obscure the uptake of oxygen in that vial.
Why is it reasonable that, of the three sugars (glucose, fructose, and sucrose),
glucose would result in the most activity during the fermentation experiment?
Glucose is
the sugar ordinarily acted on by yeast.
