1The chemical processes that occur within a living organism in order to maintain life is known as its [blank_start]metabolism[blank_end]
- Ametabolism
2Metabolism consists of two processes:
[blank_start]Catabolism[blank_end] = Breakdown of chemical compounds via exergonic reactions
[blank_start]Anabolism[blank_end] = Biosynthesis or chemical compounds via endergonic reactions- AAnabolism
- BCatabolism
3Exergonic reactions [blank_start]release energy[blank_end]
Endergonic reactions [blank_start]require energy[blank_end]- Arequire energy
- Brelease energy
4We have already established that organisms can be classified based on their energy source; Chemotrophs and Phototrophs. The Chemotroph category can be broken down into two further subcategories based on whether the organism utilises organic or inorganic substances:
[blank_start]Chemoorganotrophs[blank_end] = Utilise organic compounds to obtain energy
[blank_start]Chemolithotrophs[blank_end] = Utilise inorganic compounds to obtain energy- AChemolithotrophs
- BChemoorganotrophs
- CChemoorganotrophs
- DChemolithotrophs

Different types of bacteria based on oxygen requirement:
1: [blank_start]Obligate[blank_end] aerobes need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire anaerobically.
2: [blank_start]Obligate[blank_end] anaerobes are poisoned by oxygen.
3: [blank_start]Facultative[blank_end] anaerobes can grow with or without oxygen because they can metabolise energy aerobically or anaerobically.
4: [blank_start]Microaerophiles[blank_end] need oxygen because they cannot ferment or respire anaerobically. However, they are poisoned by high concentrations of oxygen.
5: [blank_start]Aerotolerant[blank_end] organisms do not require oxygen as they metabolise energy anaerobically. Unlike obligate anaerobes however, they are not poisoned by oxygen.- AAerotolerant
- BMicroaerophiles
- CFacultative
- DObligate
- EObligate
6The difference between aerotolerant and obligate anaerobic bacteria is that whilst they both produce energy anaerobically aerotolerant bacteria are not poisoned by oxygen where obligate anaerobic bacteria are.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
7The difference between aerotolerant and obligate anaerobic bacteria is that whilst they both produce energy anaerobically aerotolerant bacteria are not poisoned by oxygen where obligate anaerobic bacteria are.
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
8Match the mechanism of energy production to its description:
[blank_start]Substrate level phosphorylation[blank_end] = ATP is generated when a phosphorylated intermediate transfers its phosphate to ADP
[blank_start]Oxidative Phosphorylation[blank_end] = ATP is synthesized during the transport of electrons along an electron transport chain to an electron acceptor
[blank_start]Photophosphorylation[blank_end] = Similar to oxidative phosphorylation but electrons are provided by reduced chlorophyll molecules- APhotophosphorylation
- BOxidative Phosphorylation
- CSubstrate level phosphorylation
9Chemoorganotrophic bacteria obtain energy (ATP) from carbohydrates by which two basic processes? Alphabetical order.
[blank_start]Fermentation[blank_end]
[blank_start]Respiration[blank_end]- ARespiration
- BFermentation
10How is the ATP produced in fermentation?
- ASubstrate level phosphorylation
- BOxidative phosphorylation
- CPhotophosphorylation
11The Embden Meyerhof pathway is also known as [blank_start]Glycolysis[blank_end] and is the most common biochemical pathway for the fermentation of glucose.
- AGlycolysis
12The process of glycolysis yields [blank_start]2[blank_end] molecules of ATP
- A2
- B4
- C6
- D8
13One of the main factors of fermentation is that NAD- and NADP+ must be reduced back into NADH and NADPH
- AVerdadero
- BFalso
14Yeast is grown is grown in two stages:
Firstly, an [blank_start]aerobic[blank_end] stage to cause yeast to grow and multiply
Secondly, an [blank_start]anaerobic[blank_end] stage to cause yeast to produce energy via fermentation, thus producing ethanol as a by product.- Aanaerobic

- Danaerobic
15Which type of fermentation occurs in E.coli?

18Different microbes produce different fermentation end products:
Lactic acid bacteria produce lactic acid which is important for the [blank_start]dairy industry (yoghurts, etc)[blank_end]
Propionic bacteria produce propionic acid, acetic acid and CO2 which is important for the [blank_start]use in Swiss cheese[blank_end]- Adairy industry (yoghurts, etc)

- ASubstrate-level Phosphorylation
- BOxidative Phosphorylation

22There are two types of respiration:
Aerobic Respiration, whereby [blank_start]oxygen[blank_end] is the final electron acceptor and H20 is formed
Anaerobic Respiration, whereby other inorganic molecules, most commonly [blank_start]nitrate[blank_end], is the terminal electron acceptor.- Anitrate
