Question: 129

What is ATP? Name the subunit of ATP molecular?

Answer: 129

129-147

A- The major energy currency of all cells is a nucleotide called adenosinetriphosphateATP. Each type ATP moleculehas three subunits

1- adenine a double ringed nitrogenous base

2- a ribose a five carbon sugar

3- Three phosphate group in a linear chain.

Question: 130

Different limiting factors?

Answer: 130

130-147

An environmental factor the absence or deficiency of which can decreases the rate of a metabolicreaction is called limitingfactor for that reaction. Many factor that like intensity, Temperature concentration of carbon dioxide.

Question: 131

How is Soya Sauce made

Answer: 131

131-147

Soya Sauce is made by fermentation of Soya plant with the help of a fungus named Aspergillus

Question: 132

Write names of main stages of Aerobic respiration

Answer: 132

132-147

Stages of Aerobic Respiration

stages of aerobic respiration

Glycolysis

Krebs Cycle

Electron Transport Chain

Question: 133

What is meant by Anaerobes

Answer: 133

133-147

Anaerobes; Some organisms get their energy from anaerobic respiration instead of availability of free oxygen such organisms are known as anaerobes

Question: 134

What are Glycolysis?

Answer: 134

134-147

Glycolysis occur in cytoplasm and oxygen is not involved in this stage. That is why . It occur in bath types of respiration aerobic and anaerobic. In glycolysis glucose, molecule is broken into two molecule and pyruvic acid 3c

Question: 135

What is cellular respiration?

Answer: 135

135-147

The cellular energy weldingprocess is called cellularrespiration

Question: 136

NADPH Stand for what

Answer: 136

136-147

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotidephosphate

Question: 137

Describe the effect of light intensity on photosynthesis

Answer: 137

137-147

The factos that effects on photosynthesis called limiting factos for photosynthesis

Effect of light: The rate of photosynthesis varies with and increases as intensity increases However at much higher light intensity the rate of photosynthesis becomes constant

Question: 138

Define redoxreaction ?

Answer: 138

138-147

Redox reaction involve exhangeof electrons between atoms loss of electrons is called redution

Question: 139

What is meant by Electron Transport Chain

Answer: 139

139-147

Electron transport chain is the final step of cellular respiration It is the transfer of elctron on an electron transport chain In this step NADH and FADH release electron and hydrogen ions, These electrons are taken up by a series of electron carriers When electrons move through the series of electron carriers they loose energy which is used to synthesize ATP At the end of chain electrons and hydrogen ions combine with molecular oxygen and form water

Question: 140

Difference between photosynthesis

Answer: 140

140-147

Difference between photosynthesis and respiration

Question: 141

Define Fermentation Name its two types

Answer: 141

141-147

Fermentation: Breakdown of glucose in the absence of oxygen is called fermentation or anaerobic respiration It yields very less energy

Question: 142

What is pyruvic acid?

Answer: 142

142-147

Pyruvic acid are completely oxidized to co2 and water and all energy is released. The overall reaction is as follows.

C6H12O6 + 6O2 ______6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy.

Question: 143

Why it is said all life depends on photosynthesis

Answer: 143

143-147

The process by which utilizes sunlight to make food and oxygen from carbon dioxide life depend on photosynthesis

Question: 144

What is Kreb Cycle

Answer: 144

144-147

In krebs cycle the pyruvic acid molecules are completely oxidized along with the formation of ATP, NADH and FADH Before entering inkers cycle pyruvic acid is changed into carbon compound called acetyl Coal

Question: 145

Define krebscycle.

Answer: 145

145-147

In Krebs cycle the pyrunic acid molecule are completely oxidizedalong with the formation of ATP,NADH and FADH, Before entering in krebscycle

Question: 146

Define lactic acid fermentation.

Answer: 146

146-147

It occur in skeleton muscle of human and other animals during extreme physical activities. This also happen in the bacteria present in milk.

Question: 147

What is epidermis?

Answer: 147

147-147

Epidermis is the outermost layer of our skin. Its main purpose is protection. The epidermis is made of our layer.
