Answer true or false (using your flip cards) to the following questions: 1. All living things are able to capture the energy of sunlight and use it to power their life processes. False! 2. Many animals exhale carbon dioxide, CO 2, as waste product, but plants need CO 2 to live. True! 3. The oxygen in our atmosphere comes from plants. True! 4. Matter is always a lot heavier than energy. True! 5. Matter takes up less space than energy. False!

Mrs. Williams Freshman Biology Semester One
3
Step 1 Convert sunlight energy in to chemical food energy Ends in Glucose Step 2 Convert chemical food energy into energy that the cell can use Ends in ATP
4
Plants do step 1 with chloroplasts Plants do step 2 with mitochondria Because plants make their own food and then eat it, they are called autotrophs
5
Only do step 2 with mitochondria Because animals must eat food that others have made, they are called heterotrophs.
7
Convert sunlight energy into glucose Chloroplast performs photosynthesis Plants, algae, some bacteria, and some protists all perform photosynthesis Overall reaction: 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O → C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 BrainPop Photosynthesis
8
Found only in plant cells Thylakoid: coin-shape structure containing chlorophyll and proteins; also called photosystems Grana- stacks of thylakoids Stroma- fluid inside chloroplast (similar to cytoplasm)
9
Water Water shortages can slow or stop photosynthesis Plants in dry climates Waxy coating Thin leaves (needles on cactus) Temperature Low temps slow or stop photosynthesis Enzymes do not work well at low temps
10
Light intensity/amount Increase in light, increase in photosynthesis until at maximum level Plants still perform photosynthesis in periods without light Density of Other Plants Crowded plants compete for light and resources Reduces photosynthesis

12
Converts glucose into ATP Mitochondria performs cellular respiration Happens in all organisms Process is called aerobic because it requires oxygen Overall reaction: C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 → 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + (up to) 38 ATP BrainPop CR BrainPop CR
13
Found in animals and plants Outer and inner membrane Cristae- folding of inner membrane Matrix- area inside of inner membrane
14
Three phosphate groups Adenine Ribose
15
ATP is a charged battery for the cell Made during cellular respiration Used up to complete activities for cell Energy in ATP is stored in high energy bonds between phosphate groups ADP is a used battery for a cell one phosphate has been removed Phosphate must be added back on to recharge battery ATP ADP
17
PsRs Function Make food for plants Make energy for ALL organisms Location in cell ChloroplastMitochondria Uses what? Water, CO2, Sunlight Oxygen, Food/Glucose Makes what? Oxygen, Food/glucose Water, CO2, Energy/ATP
