Campbell's Biology, 9e (Reece et al.) Chapter 9 Cellular Respiration and Fermentation This is one of the most challenging chapters for students to master. Many students become overwhelmed and confused by the complexity of the pathways, with the multitude of intermediate compounds, enzymes, and processes. The vast majority of the questions in this chapter address central concepts rather than details of these pathways. Other questions have accompanying figures that provide details for reference and ask students to interpret or use these models. Overall, the emphases are on the inputs and outputs of each pathway, the relationships among these pathways, the cellular locations, redox as a central principle in respiration, and chemiosmosis.

Solutions to Practice Problems for Molecular Biology, Session 5: Gene Regulation and the Lac Operon ? ? Question 1 ? ? ? a) How does lactose (allolactose) promote transcription of LacZ? 1) Lactose binds to the polymerase and increases efficiency. 2) Lactose binds to a repressor protein, and alters its conformation to prevent it from binding to the DNA and interfering with the binding of RNA polymerase. 3) Lactose binds to an activator protein, which can then help the RNA polymerase bind to the promoter and begin transcription. 4) Lactose prevents premature termination of transcription by directly binding to and bending the DNA. Solution: 2) Lactose binds to a repressor protein, and alters its conformation to prevent it from binding to the DNA

Nutrition In order for the human body to be healthy and resistant to disease, good nutrition is required. All living things are made of chemicals. In order to grow, develop and maintain bodily structures and functions, specific chemicals must be acquired from the food we eat. In a sense, we are what we eat. Nutrients can be divided into the following categories: Nutrients Overview Carbohydrates ? sugar based molecules that are metabolized for energy in cellular respiration and make up the structural components of plant cell walls. Lipids ? fat based molecules that store large quantities of energy. These molecules also make up the structure of cell membranes.

Photosynthesis Energy Transformations ATP is the energy molecule used in all living things, so supplies must be constantly replenished. energy must be added to make ATP, thus ATP formation is an endergonic reaction. ADP + P + energy ---? ATP the addition of a phosphate molecule to ATP is called phosphorylation ATP ---? ADP + P + energy the removal of a phosphate molecule from ATP gives off energy and is called dephosphorylation Electron Transport System (ETS) is the means by which energy production occurs within cells. It is a series of progressively stronger electron acceptors. Each time an electron is transported, energy is either released or absorbed. This is how most of the ATP in plants and animals is formed Redox Reactions
