Energy in a Cell Ch 9 V. Hassell
Energy in a Cell • Work is done in the body as it moves and functions. • It requires energy to do so. • While food provides the raw material, it must be broken down into simpler substances like glucose to be used.
The form of energy the cells use is called ATP. • The breakdown of glucose in the cycles produces the A TP the body needs. • (Wood, oil and solar energy all are sources of energy, but appliances must have them converted into electricity to use it).
ATP- • Adenosine Tri-phosphate is made up of 1 adenine molecule • 1 ribose sugar and 3 phosphates • . The energy it provides is from the breaking of the phosphate bonds.
ATP is like a charged battery which supplies the cells energy- • The energy is released when it is broken down & releases a phosphate
ADP is formed- • like a dead battery which can be recharged with additional energy and replacing the phosphate • ADP + energy (sunlight) + 1 phosphate -produces ATP
Light reactions- Photosynthesis • Autotrophs- using chlorophyll, captures sunlight and produce glucose (carbohydrates, fatty acids & cellulose) in the process of photosynthesis • Chlorophyll appears green because it reflects green and yellow light. • There are many types/colors of pigments- absorb other colors of light
Photosynthesis • Carbon dioxide + water produces glucose + oxygen Chlorophyll + sunlight are needed. • Light reaction- Light energy is converted to chemical energy. Water molecules are split providing hydrogen for the Calvin Cycle. Oxygen is given off as a by product
Calvin Cycle • the synthesis part of photosynthesis • Energy is absorbed by the chlorophyll molecule in the thylakoid. • The passing along of this energy along a series of molecules is called the electron transport chain.
1. Electron transport chains • electrons pass down the chain the energy is stored in the bonds of A TP- The energy is from light & the chlorophyll molecule. • http://www.science.smith.edu/departments/Biology/Bio231/etc.html
1. Electron transport chains • The hydrogen and a freed electron is picked up by NADP • The oxygen is a waste product from the reaction-the air you breathe The plant produces A TP , NADPH + H
Photolysis- • water is split during photosynthesis.
2. The Calvin Cycle • Carbon fixation- a carbon atom of carbon dioxide is fixed (attached) to a 5 carbon molecule. • It takes CO2 from the air and converts it to a form that can be used by living things 2. The Calvin Cycle • http://www.science.smith.edu/departments/Biology/Bio231/calvin.html 2. The Calvin Cycle
2. The Calvin Cycle • Takes place in stroma (thylakoids) of the chloroplasts • Carbon dioxide combines with hydrogen to form sugars- • ( carbohydrates, starch & cellulose)
2. The Calvin Cycle • These are used to provide energy to plants & animals when the carbohydrates are broken down to release energy.
Life without Light • Chemosynthesis- • autotrophs obtains energy from inorganic compounds without light. • Do not need oxygen- • Converts carbon dioxide and Hydrogen gas to methane (CH4) Important in decomposition process Breaks downs sewage
Section 3 -Getting Energy to Make ATP • Glucose, (fatty acids and amino acids -sometimes) can be used as energy sources Energy from glucose is used to attach phosphate groups to ADP to form ATP
Section 3 - Respiration • Process where food is broken down to release energy. • It can be aerobic (needs oxygen) or anaerobic (no oxygen needed).
I. Glycolysis- Anaerobic • 6 carbon glucose forms 2- 3 carbon pyruvic acids Hydrogen ions & electrons combine with NAn to form NADH • NADH- coenzyme used in photosynthesis
I. Glycolysis- Anaerobic • It produces 2 ATP for each glucose which is broken down • Takes place in cytoplasm
I. Glycolysis- with Oxygen • Aerobic- uses oxygen • - takes place in mitochondrion
Breakdown of Pyruvic Acid • pyruvic Acid-3.carbon compound • -changed to-acetic acid (2 carbons ) • (The third carbon forms CO2) • Acetic acid combines with coenzyme A-forming acetyl-CoA
2. Citric Acid Cycle • 2nd step of aerobic respiration • produces more A TP & releases electrons which are picked up by NAD & FAD • Acetyl-CoA combines with 4 Carbon molecules to form a 6 carbon molecule
2. Citric Acid Cycle • Citric acid is broken down • 1 st step- to a 5 carbon • 2nd step- 4 carbon-releasing CO2 each step
2. Citric Acid Cycle • In both glycolysis & citric acid cycle some ATP is formed. • 4th part of aerobic respiration
Electron Transport Chain • electrons are trasferred- releasing energy. • Electrons from both glycolysis & citric acid cycle used. • Occurs on inner membranes of mitochondria
Electron Transport Chain • Aerobic reaction because the last electron acceptor is oxygen which then forms water. • If no oxygen is present the chain stops.
Energy without Oxygen • 3. Fermentation- no oxygen • No additional ATP is formed 2 types
Fermentation • 1. lactic acid • 2. alcohol fermentation
Fermentation • 1. lactic acid • fermentation- ~produces lactic acid • occurs when the cells use more energy than can be supplied- • it causes muscle fatigue
Fermentation • 2. alcohol fermentation • many bacteria and fungi such as yeast carry out alcoholic fermentation with alcohol & carbon dioxide as the end products.
Photosynthesis & Respiration are alike • involve energy • requires enzymes • occurs in specific organelles • involves moving electrons in electron transport chains. Different- opposite
ATP: Energy in a Molecule • Work-done whenever anything moves • Body does work & requires energy • Energy provided in the form of work
Body Energy • Used to maintain homeostasis • Cells need a form of energy called ATP which is produced from the breakdown of food • Coal or gas can not produce energy for appliances. Appliances need electricity. Coal & gas are used to produce electricity.
High energy foods • Sugars • fats • starches
ATP- • Adenosine Triphosphate • 1 adenine • 3 phosphates • 1 ribose sugar • energy is released from breaking the phosphate bonds
ATP-> ADP + energy • ATP is needed in a constant & abundant supply for cellular energy or the cell will die.
ATP-> ADP + energy • a battery which has electricity to use and becomes discharged • ADP + energy-> ATP • ADP can become recharged with the addition on energy & ATP
Energy is stored when ATP is made from ADP + phosphate • Energy is released when ATP breaks down to ADP + phosphate
Enzymes • Carry out cell reactions • build membranes • build cell organelles
The more active the cell- the more ATP needed • The more mitochondria will be in the cell • ex. Bird wings/muscles would contain high or low levels of mitochondria?
Section 10. 2 Light reactions- Photosynthesis • The oxygen is a waste product from the reaction-the air you breathe
1. Electron transport chain • -as electrons pass down the chain the energy is stored in the bonds of ATP- The energy is from light & the chlorophyll molecule
1. Electron transport chain • photosynthesis. • The hydrogen and a freed electron is picked up by NADP • The oxygen is a waste product from the reaction-the air you breathe • The plant produces ATP, NADPH + H
2. The Calvin Cycle • Carbon fixation-a carbon atom of carbon dioxide is fixed (attached) to a 5 carbon molecule.
2. The Calvin Cycle • It takes CO2 from the air and converts it to a form that can be used by living things. • Takes place in stroma (thylakoids) of the chloroplasts
2. The Calvin Cycle • Carbon dioxide combines with hydrogen to form sugars- (carbohydrates, starch & cellulose) • These are used to provide energy to plants & animals when the carbohydrates are broken down to release energy.
Life without Light • Chemosynthesis- an autotroph obtains energy from inorganic compounds without the use of light. Do not need oxygen- may be poisoned by oxygen • Converts carbon dioxide and Hydrogen gas to methane (CH4)
Important in decomposition process • Breaks downs sewage • Bacteria-some methane producing bacteria (prokayotes) • Found in marshes, lake sediments, digestive tracts of ruminants (cows) • Also occurs near cracks in ocean floor in Pacific Ocean.
