1 Write the summary reaction for cellular respiration (2 point) 2. Using your knowledge of the guppy experiment you performed today, explain why the beaker without guppies took more drops of acid to clear than the beaker with the guppies (2 points)? Why is the amount of carbonic acid in the beaker related to the respiratory rate of the guppies (1 point)? crbohic cidis amounCarbondioxise 3. eer 5 Write the summary reaction for photosynthesis (2 point). Co220 hat major metabolic pathway of the Carbon Cycle was occurring in the beaker of plants uplaced in the dark (1 point)? respirr_HD,, (61gcolysis , lain why the beaker in the dark was an appropriate control to use in the osynthesis experiment (2 points)

Explanation / Answer

1.

Balanced chemical equation for cellular respiration,

C6H12O6 + O2 ----------> 6CO2 + 6H2O

2.

The guppies produce CO2 as part of their metabolic activity. CO2 is released in the aerobic respiration which gets combined with water to produce carbonic acid.

H2O + CO2 ---------> H2CO3 ----------> H+ + HCO3-

3.

CO2 is the product of respiration. As the respiratory rate increases, the amount of CO2 released will also increase.

4.

Balanced chemical equation for oxygenic photosynthesis,

6CO2 + 6H2O ----------> C6H12O6 + 6O2

5.

i. Photosynthesis

Respiration (Glycolysis and TCA cycle)
