PHOTOSYNTHESIS • What does a plant need to survive? • _________________ • _________________ • _________________ • _________________ • Which of the above is organic?____________
PHOTOSYNTHESIS • Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert inorganic molecules into organic molecules. • Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical bond energy. • Photosynthesis is the process by which plants convert sunlight into glucose.
PHOTOSYNTHESIS • Chloroplasts are the site of photosynthesis
PHOTOSYNTHESIS • Electron Micrograph of a chloroplast
PHOTOSYNTHESIS • Formula for photosynthesis:
PHOTOSYNTHESIS • Occurs in two phases: • Light Phase • Occurs in the GRANA in the chloroplasts • Dark Phase • Occurs in the STROMA in the chloroplasts
Light Phase/Reaction • Occurs only in the presence of light • Also called Photolysis • Sunlight splits water into hydrogen and oxygen • Also called Light Dependent Reaction
Light Phase/Reaction • Drawing of Photolysis:
Dark Phase/Reaction • In order for the DARK PHASE to occur, HYDROGEN has to be carried from the LIGHT PHASE to the DARK PHASE. • This carrier molecule is called NADP. • When NADP is carrying hydrogen, it is NADPH.
Dark Phase/Reaction • Also called Light Independent Reaction • Also called Carbon Fixation. • In this phase, CARBON DIOXIDE from the atmosphere combines with HYDROGEN from the light reaction to form GLUCOSE. • ATP is diffused from the grana into the stroma for the dark reaction.
Carbon Fixation • Formula and drawing of Dark Reaction: • CO2 + H2 2 PGAL glucose
Factors Effecting Photosynthesis • Temperature • Light Intensity • Availability of Water • Elevation
CELLULAR RESPIRATION • Occurs in plants AND animals. • Occurs in the MITOCHONDRIA and CYTOPLASM.
CELLULAR RESPIRATION • The process by which energy in food molecules (glucose) is converted to a form that can be used by the cells (ATP). • Can be AEROBIC (uses O2) or ANAEROBIC (does NOT use O2)
CELL RESPIRATION • Picture
CELLULAR RESPIRATION • ATP • Adenosine Tri-Phosphate = ENERGY • Comes from chemical bonds breaking • The more bonds broken, the more energy made. • Energy is stored in high energy phosphate bonds.
ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION • Occurs in the CYTOPLASM • Makes energy WITHOUT using oxygen. • Glucose is partially broken down. • Also called GLYCOLYSIS or FERMENTATION. • Produces: • EthylAlcohol ( in yeast) • Lactic Acid (in bacteria or human muscle cells).
ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION • Pyruvic Acid • produced by the breakdown of sugars during GLYCOLYSIS
ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION • Formula
AEROBIC RESPIRATION • Making ATP USING oxygen. • Occurs in the MITOCHONDRIA • More energy efficient than anaerobic respiration (releases more energy). • Bonds in glucose are completely broken down.
AEROBIC RESPIRATION • Formula: C6H12O6 + 2ATP Pyruvate CO2 + H2O + 38 ATP O2
Steps of Aerobic Respiration 1. Glycolysis (Anaerobic Respiration) • Makes pyruvic acid, which is then broken down • Produces 4 ATP (gross)
Steps of Aerobic Respiration 2. Kreb’s Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle) • Produces citric acid, which is then broken down • Bonds in the sugar are completely broken down, releasing CO2
Steps of Aerobic Respiration 3. Electron Transport Chain • Oxygen is the final hydrogen acceptor so glucose bonds can be FULLY broken down. • Releases H2O
