Cell Energetics Honors Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration (Chapters 8 & 9)
2
Cell energy Necessary for life must be able to produce, store, and use energy ATP chemical energy
3
ATP adenosine triphosphate ADP + P i ATP Bond of 3 rd phosphate is tenuous Renewable Unlimited supply of energy in presence of P i
4
When bond breaks, energy is released
5
Cells use energy to: Obtain and transform nutrients Transport materials Eliminate wastes Maintenance of homeostasis
6
Photosynthesis Process by which light energy is converted into chemical energy
7
Factors involved in photosynthesis Light energy form consisting of a combination of different wavelengths ROYGBIV visible (white) light
8
Factors cont. Water provides H + and O 2 (by- product) Atmospheric O 2 comes from here CO 2 amount directly affects the rate of photosynthesis
9
Factors cont. Chlorophyll pigments that absorb certain wavelengths of light A and b absorb blue-violet and red light Green is never absorbed reflected back
10
Light dependent reactions daytime only Also called photolysis Provides energy to run the next set of reactions
11
H 2 O is split into H and O 2H 2 O 4H + + 4e- + O 2 (released as a gas) H + transferred to hydrogen carriers 2NADP + + 2H + 2NADPH (energy storage) 4e- used to make ATP
12
Light-independent reactions day and night Also called the Calvin Cycle or the carbon fixation cycle CO 2 is split C is added to RuBP (5-C sugar) to form two 3-C molecules CO 2 + RuBP 2PGA
13
Light-independent cont. ATP and NADPH convert PGA to another 3-C molecule PGA + ATP + NADPH PGAL ADP and NADP + return to light dep. Reactions 2 molecules of PGAL are used to make glucose
14
Light-independent cont. Some PGAL molecules and ATP reform RuBP back to beginning Any excess glucose is stored as starch
15
Calvin Cycle
17
Photosynthesis Overview
18
Chemical equation for photosynthesis 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2
19
Stomates allow for gas exchange
20
Cellular respiration Process by which cells release energy (mitochondria)
21
Chemical equation 6O 2 + C 6 H 12 O 6 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O Opposite of photosynthesis
22
2 types of respiration Aerobic uses O 2 Anaerobic no O 2 Both start with the same reaction glycolysis
23
Glycolysis Step 1 Glucose is split
24
Involves oxidation-reduction reactions (redox) Oxidation e- are lost (or H atoms) Reduction e- are gained (or H atoms) O 2 is the final e- acceptor H 2 O Energy is released during each transfer
25
First part: C 6 H 12 O 6 + 2ATP 2PGAL + 2ADP + P i Energy is added to break C-H bonds
26
Second part: 2PGAL 2 pyruvic acid + 4ATP 2NADH and 2H + are also formed Pyruvic acid moves into mitochondrion
28
Net energy gain 4ATP end product - 2ATP put into reaction 2ATP net gain Not very efficient
29
Aerobic respiration
30
Step 2 intermediate reaction Pyruvic acid is oxidized Pyruvic acid + coenzyme A acetyl- CoA CO 2 is released, NADH and H + are formed
31
Step 3 the citric acid cycle (the Krebs cycle) Each molecule of acetyl-CoA takes a turn 1 acetyl-CoA = 1 ATP produced 1 glucose = 2 acetyl-CoA 2 ATP are released and various energy carriers
32
Krebs Cycle
34
Step 4 the electron transport chain Energy carriers move down the chain releases energy gradually (32 ATP)
36
Net energy yield 2ATP glycolysis + 2ATP Krebs cycle +32ATP e- transport chain 36ATP grand total
37
Cell Respiration Overview
38
Anaerobic respiration Fermentation
39
Pyruvic acid is converted to: Lactic acid human muscle cells Ethanol (ethyl alcohol) yeast Both produces still contain most of the chemical energy of glucose Release of 4 ATP
40
Anaerobic overview
41
Net energy yield 2ATP glycolysis + 0ATP anaerobic reactions 2ATP grand total Much less efficient than aerobic
42
Comparing photosynthesis to respiration PhotosynthesisCellular Respiration Food is producedFood is broken down Energy from the sun is stored in glucose Energy of glucose is released as ATP CO 2 taken in, O 2 given off O 2 taken in, CO 2 given off Occurs only with chlorophyll Occurs in all living cells
