Sample Practice Problems

Preview the types of problems and questions covered in this worksheet

Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 10.41 Cellular Respiration Overview skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Which limitation of an overall cellular respiration equation should students recognize?

AIt proves carbon dioxide is the only reactant.

BIt summarizes inputs and outputs but does not show intermediate carriers, enzymes, or locations.

CIt shows that respiration happens without cells.

DIt explains every molecular collision and enzyme shape in detail.

Solution & Explanation:The equation is a useful overview, but it leaves out pathway stages, electron carriers, enzymes, regulation, and cellular compartments.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Use the chemiosmosis overview diagram. Which process is represented by protons moving through ATP synthase?

ACarbon fixation producing glucose

BDNA replication in the nucleus

COxidative phosphorylation producing ATP

DOxygen release from water splitting in chloroplasts

Solution & Explanation:Proton flow through ATP synthase in the mitochondrial inner membrane is part of oxidative phosphorylation, which produces much of the ATP in aerobic respiration.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Why does the glucose equation remain useful even though cells can respire fats and some amino acids?

AOnly glucose contains atoms, so other fuels cannot be respired.

BGlucose is a clear model fuel for the overall reactants, products, and energy transfer of respiration.

CFats and amino acids are forms of oxygen gas.

DThe equation proves cells never use molecules other than glucose.

Solution & Explanation:The glucose equation is a useful simplified model for respiration. Other organic molecules can feed into related pathways, but glucose clearly shows the main matter and energy pattern.
