Organisms obtaining food Autotroph: An organism that makes it’s own food Ex. Plants, Algae Heterotroph: An organism that obtains food by eating autotrophs. Ex. Human, Cow
Energy Kinetic Energy of motion Thermal Energy Random Molecular Motion Potential Stored Energy Chemical Energy Atoms arranged to store energy
Cellular Respiration Input Sugar + Oxygen Cellular Respiration Creates Heat and ATP Output CO 2 + H 2 O Input Gasoline + Oxygen Combustion Creates Heat and movement Output CO 2 + H 2 O Combustion
Cellular Respiration A chemical process that uses oxygen to convert the energy in organic molecules into ATP
ATP = Adenosine Triphosphate ATP = Energy “currency” for cell ATP provides energy for the cell to do three types of work: Chemical work = building large molecules Mechanical work = muscle contraction Transport work = getting ions across cell membrane
Respiration Aerobic: A process that requires oxygen Cellular respiration vs. breathing Both Bring in Oxygen and release Co 2

Cellular Respiration equation C 6 H 12 O 6 +6O 2 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + 38ATP
Cellular Respiration Input: Glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6 ) + Oxygen (O 2 ) Output: Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) + Water (H 2 O) + 38 ATP
Lactic Acid Fermentation The process used to make ATP without oxygen Anaerobic= A process that does not require oxygen ATP is made from just the process of glycolysis Creates 2 ATP and Lactic Acid
Alcoholic Fermentation Organisms such as yeast can ferment sugar and other foods but they create ethyl alcohol instead of Lactic Acid Alcoholic Fermentation also releases CO 2 which allows for the rising of bread or carbonation of beverages
