Study Guide Lecture Exam 2
1. This exam covers chapters 7-photosynthesis, 8- respiration, 11- Foundations of Genetics, 12-DNA:
the genetic material, 13-Transcription and Translation, 14-read from study guide, 16-taxonomy, and
17-evolution of microbial life (bacteria, Archaea, protista and viruses).
2. Prepare from study guides but refer to and visualize the figures in text book.
3. Do all the recaps and quizzes of these chapters.
Chapter 7 – Photosynthesis
4. Light reaction and Calvin cycle – overall reactions
5. Contrast C3, C4, and CAM plants.
6. Photorespiration
Chapter 8 Respiration
7. 4 main steps, starting chemicals, CO2 produced or not, # of ATP produced, electron acceptors NAD+
and FAD, ultimate electron acceptor – O2
8. Fermentation – respiration in absence of oxygen, both types lactate in muscles and alcoholic in
microbes, CO2 produced or not.
9. Chemical equation type representation of 4 steps of aerobic respiration and 2 types of fermentation.
10. Chapter 11 Foundations of Genetics
11. Definitions of examples of allele, phenotype, homozygous, heterozygous, monohybrid, dihybrid,
multiple alleles, polygenic inheritance, and non-disjunction.
12. Ratios of monohybrid cross(Yy XYy), dihybrid cross (YyRr X YyRr), test cross of monohybrid (Yy X yy),
genotypic ratio of monohybrid cross, incomplete dominance phenotypic ratio.
13. Questions related to law of segregation, law of independent assortment and blood groupings.
Chapter 12 – DNA
14. Structure and replication of DNA, enzymes needed for it, semi-conservative replication.
Chapter 13
15. transcription and enzyme needed; translation definition, E, P and A sites of ribosome and their
importance; 3 types of RNA and their role in protein synthesis, definitions of codon and anticodon,
start codon and stop codons, mutation definition – example of sickle cell anemia.

Autotroph Protists
unicellular – diatoms, dinoflagellates and Euglenas
Multicellular – green, red and brown algae
Heterotrophs
Protozoans – Amoeba, Paramecium, Flagellates
Slime molds – fungi like protists
