I'm just making sure but does anyone know if the PCAT covers the calvin cycle? I can't really tell from the pcat blueprint...also, I'm assuming I don't need to do the animal behavior chapter in the kaplan book?
 
I think I heard that plant biology will not be tested on PCAT. Nevertheless, I would just know the basic info that it happens in the dark using ATP (from light cycle) and CO2 as carbon fixation to produce glucose.
 
Yea, you might want to go over ATP before test day. The PCAT tends to ask general questions about this topic so I wouldn't focus too much on the small details. But, going over glycolysis, fermentation, krebs/citric acid cycle, and the ETC might be a good idea. If your test is tomorrow/thursday though, I wouldn't stress to much about it since their probably wont be more than 1 or 2 questions about it-- Bio covers a lot of different subjects.
 
I think you should have a basic understanding of what are the reactants and products of glycolysis, fermentation, krebs cycle, and electron transport chain. Like glycolysis is glucose -> pyruvate. krebs is pyruvate -> co2.
