Sample Essays
1. Discuss photosynthesis. List all the steps and locations (be specific) involved in the light and dark reactions. Be sure to include the amount of energy generated and used to make glucose. Also compare and contrast C3, C4 and CAM plants.
2. Discuss cellular respiration. List all the steps and locations (be specific). Include the electron transport chain, oxidative phosphorylation and substrate level phosphorylation. Be sure to list the amount of ATP (energy) produced at each step. List the differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
3. Diagram the Calvin cycle and the Krebs cycle and describe how each fits into either photosynthesis or respiration.
4. Define an endotherm and an ectotherm and give examples of each. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each.
5. Compare and contrast mitosis with the first division of meiosis. At what points during meiosis does the potential for genetic variation occur?
6. What is DNA? Draw a DNA molecule (in the ladder diagram). Label the DNA structure. Circle a part of the diagram (6 bases long) and tell what mRNA would be made.
7. Write a definition (not the equations) of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration. How are they linked together (C,H,O cycle)?
8. Visit David Suzuki’s web site (www.davidsuzuki.org)
Click on the “issues” tab. Give a brief overview of climate change and one other issue.
Click on “What you can do,” how do you reduce your carbon footprint? How can you eat for a healthy planet? Can you be “green” your workplace?
