Presentation Transcript

  1. PHOTOSYNTHESISCELLULAR RESPIRATION • Plants are called autotrophs since they make their own food using photosynthesis. • Animals are called heterotrophs since they need to eat (consume) their food.

  2. Photosynthesis • Plants break the water and carbon dioxide apart to make new molecules. • 6H2O + 6CO2 get rearranged into C6H12O6 + O2

  3. Photosynthesis Chemical Equation

  4. Balanced Chemical Equation • 6CO2 + 6H2O  6O2 + C6H12O6 • Atoms are neither created nor destroyed, they are just transferred. • This transferring of atoms is called the Law of Conservation of Matter.

  5. Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) • Nucleic Acid • Structure: • Phosphate group • 5 carbon sugar (ribose) • Nitrogenous base (adenine) • Function: Energy

  6. Why ATP? An analogy to money… • Glucose in our food is a great source of energy! ($100 bill) • However, individual cell processes may only require a small amount of energy ($1 bill) • Analogy: most vending machines do not accept $100 bills! We need a smaller form of “currency” for these processes. • ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is this important cellular “currency” for life. • ATP releases more appropriate amounts of energy for the individual cellular processes that require energy. (We will study this molecule in detail in our next activity!)

  7. ATP and ADP Cycle • ATP = Adenosine triphosphate = 3 phosphates • ADP = Adenosine diphosphate = 2 phosphates • The chemical energy in food is used to make ATP.

  8. Energy Review • ATP supplies most of the energy that drives metabolism in living things • ATP releases energy when converted into ADP • Where does ATP come from and how is it made?

  9. How do cells get their energy? • Cells perform cellular respiration to make ATP. • Analogy: A fully charged battery

  10. Cellular Respiration • Cells have mitochondria that perform cellular respiration to make ATP.

  11. Cellular Respiration • Living things get most of the energy they need from glucose. • Autrotrophs make glucose using photosynthesis • Heterotrophs get glucose from food they eat • Cellular Respiration • The process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen.

  12. Cellular Respiration Reactants • Inputs of cellular respiration are oxygen and glucose.

  13. Cellular Respiration Products • Outputs of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide, water, and ATP.

  14. Cellular Respiration Overview • Cellular Respiration Overall Equation 6O2 + C6H12O6 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy • The main form of energy produced = ATP

  15. The BIG Question is… Do only animal cells perform cellular respiration? Or do plant cells too? • Only plants perform photosynthesis • Plants AND animals perform cellular respiration! Can you explain why??

  16. Think, Pair, Share • If plant cells need oxygen gas and glucose to make ATP, where do they get them?

  17. If plant cells need oxygen gas and glucose to make ATP, where do they get them? • Plants will perform photosynthesis to make the food (glucose) required to do cellular respiration. • Plants also use glucose to make other molecules.

  18. Recall from last unit… • What was the organelle that plant cells have for energy that animal cells do not have?

  19. Photosynthesis • Plant cells have CHLOROPLASTS that perform photosynthesis to make glucose (sugar).

  20. Photosynthesis Reactants • Inputs of photosynthesis are carbon dioxide, water, and light energy.

  21. Photosynthesis Products • Outputs of photosynthesis are oxygen and glucose (sugar).

  22. Photosynthesis Overview • Photosynthesis Overall Equation Light Energy + 6CO2 + 6H2O  6O2 + C6H12O6

  23. PLANTS and ANIMALS need each other. • Plants take in water and carbon dioxide in order to perform photosynthesis to make glucose and oxygen gas. • Animals take in oxygen gas and glucose to make water and carbon dioxide.

  24. Site of Cellular Respiration • Plant and animal cells contain mitochondria: cell structures that transform chemical energy from glucose to ATP.

  25. Glycolysis • Glyco = Glucose lysis = Breakdown • Occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell • Molecules of GLUCOSE are broken down into 2 molecules of Pyruvic Acid. • Cell must use (invest) 2 ATP • Produces Energy Carrier Molecules • 4 ATP • 2 NADH

  26. Mitochondria • The mitochondria is the organelle where the final stages of cellular respiration occurs. • Kreb’s Cycle • Electron Transport Chain • Cells that use a lot of energy have high numbers of mitochondria. • Example: Muscle cells in the heart!!

  27. Kreb’s Cycle • Aerobic Process = Only if oxygen is present!! • Occurs in the MATRIX of the mitochondria • Pyruvic Acid from Glycolysis enters to form • 1 ATP • 3 NADH • 1 FADH2 • CO2 (which is released when we exhale!!) • Also called the Citric Acid Cycle

  28. Electron Transport Chain • Energy carrier molecules produced during Glycolysis and the Kreb’s Cycle enter the ETC • NADH • FADH2 • Occurs in the folds of the Inner Membrane of the Mitochondria • The electrons are passed down a chain of proteins until they reach the final electron acceptor…..oxygen! • So this step is aerobic (requires oxygen) • The ETC produces 32 ATP and H2O

  29. Significant ATP Production • Aerobic cellular respiration releases energy SLOWLY, using oxygen to convert ONEmolecule of glucose to 36 ATP!

  30. Cellular Respiration Flowchart Section 9-2 Glucose(C6H1206) + Oxygen(02) Glycolysis KrebsCycle ElectronTransportChain Carbon Dioxide (CO2) + Water (H2O) • Process requires the presence of oxygen. • This is called aerobic respiration.

  31. Cellular Respiration: Overview Mitochondrion Electrons carried in NADH Electrons carried in NADH and FADH2 Pyruvic acid Glucose Electron Transport Chain Krebs Cycle Glycolysis Mitochondrion Cytoplasm

  32. carbon dioxide water food (glucose, a carbohydrate) Aerobic Respiration – Equation C6H12O6 + 6O2 6H2O + 6CO2 + 36 ATP oxygen Does this look familiar?

  33. Aerobic Training • Ex: long runs, biking, swimming • Can increase the size and number of mitochondria in muscle cells • Can increase the delivery of O2 to muscles by improving the heart and lungs

  34. Think, Pair, Share • What happens if no oxygen is available? • The Kreb’s Cycle and Electron Transport Chain can’t function!

  35. Anaerobic Respiration • What happens when cells don’t have enough oxygen? • Some organisms live in an oxygen-free environment. How do they get their energy?

  36. Anaerobic Respiration • Anaerobic respiration is also called fermentation, or the process by which energy is released from glucose when oxygen is NOT available. • This process allows organisms to continue to produce energy until oxygen is available. • However, this process only releases 2 ATP per molecule of glucose.

  37. Fermentation • The cell can use Fermentation instead!! • Occurs in the Cytoplasm • Just like glycolysis!! • Fermentation • A series of reactions that convert NADH (from glycolysis) back into NAD allowing glycolysis to keep producing a small amount of ATP

  38. Two Types of Fermentation • Alcoholic Fermentation • Lactic Acid Fermentation

  39. Alcoholic Fermentation • Anaerobic way of converting energy for yeast and other microorganisms. • Yeasts use this process to form ethyl alcohol and carbon dioxide as waste products. • Glucose broken down to produce alcohol, CO2 and energy (ATP) • This causes bread dough to rise • This is how some alcoholic beverages are made • C6H12O6 ethanol + CO2 + 2 ATP

  40. Fermentation - Bread • Source of sugar? • DOUGH! (sugar and/or flour) • Yeast use up the O2 and ferment sugar • Produce CO2, which is trapped within tiny bubbles & results in the dough rising • Produce ethanol, which evaporates in the baking process

  41. Lactic Acid Fermentation • Anaerobic way of converting energy in animal cells and some microorganisms. • Glucose broken down to produce lactic acid, CO2 and energy (ATP). • Occurs in bacteria (unicellular organisms) • This is how cheese, yogurt, and pickles are made. • Occurs in muscles during rapid exercise • When your body runs out of oxygen your muscle cells must produce some ATP using fermentation and glycolysis • Lactic Acid build-up causes muscle soreness or burning after intense activity. • C6H12O6 lactic acid + CO2 + 2 ATP

  42. Minimal ATP Production • In the absence of oxygen, anaerobic respiration only releases 2 ATP for each molecule of glucose broken down.

  43. Anaerobic Training • Ex: sprints, strides, quick bursts of energy • Increase the glycogen levels in the muscles • Increase body’s tolerance to lactic acid

  44. Comparing ATP Production • First, your body breaks down glucose through aerobic respiration to produce 36 ATP per glucose molecule; however, this is a slow process. • When muscle cells cannot get enough O2 they break down glucose through lactic acid fermentation to produce 2 ATP per glucose… • Therefore, AEROBIC RESPIRATION is much more efficient in terms of ATP production – 36 ATP compared to 2 ATP!
