what is respiration?

involves intake of oxygen and release of carbon dioxide
what is the net equation for respiration

C₆H₁₂O_{6 +}6CO₂===> 6CO₂+6H₂0+ATP+Heat
where does the respiration occur in a cellular organelle?

in the mitochondria
what did we do with the yeast?

we fixed the yeast with glucose, sucrose, starch, and distilled water( control). we measured the volume of CO₂. GLUCOSE PRODUCED THE MOST THAN SURCROSE
what is the net equation for photosynthesis

6CO₂+12H₂O=>C₆H₁₂O₆+6CO₂+ 6H₂O
where does photosynthesis takes place?

in the thaylakoid membranes of the chloroplast
what does the paper chromatography measure

the solubility and molecular weight. Depending on that, you get your lines on the paper
what is carbon fixation?

makes glucose. occurs in the dark reaction (light independent reaction)
what does the light reaction do?

releases oxygen
what happens to the chromosomes and when is it visible?
- they condense
- they are visible during prophase
what happens in prometaphase?

nuclear membrane has completely dissociated into vesicles and the spindle is fully formed. sister chromatids attach to spindle via kinetochore microtubules
what is paper chromatography used for?

it is a way of separating dissolved compounds such as chlorophyll, carotene, xanthophyll. The pigments are adsorb on the fibers of the paper. . the paper is immersed in solvent and the the solvent moved through the spot of applied pigments.
