CRITICAL THINKING EXERCISE 1. Speculate when would green plants carry out: a. Photosynthesis - only during the day, only at night, continuously, or never? Make sure to provide the rationale for your answer. b. Cellular respiration - only during the day, only at night, continuously, or never? Make sure to provide the rationale for your answer. 2. Formulate an experimental design to measure product formation in the Calvin Cycle? (Hint: There are assays using iodine to test for the product of photosynthesis.) 3. Speculate what will happen to cellular respiration when all of the cell's NAD has been converted to NADH. (Remember that a cell's supply of ADP + Pi, and NAD is limited.) 4. Analyze why cellular respiration stops after glycolysis in the absence of oxygen even though the Krebs cycle does not require oxygen. 5. Respiration involves both mechanical and physiological processes. First, the mechanical process of breathing-inhaling air to obtain oxygen (O) and exhaling air to expel carbon dioxide (CO). Second, the physiological process-production of energy at the cellular level where cells use o, and nutrients to produce energy (ATP) that is critical for humans to survive. Based on these complimentary processes, describe the relationship between the mechanical process of breathing and the physiological process of cellular respiration. 140 Modelina cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis wa
