1 Chapter 2 Section 4 Cells and Energy

2 Cellular Respiration Is a series of chemical reactions that convert the energy from food molecules into a usable form called ATP. Occurs in 2 places in the cell ◦ Cytoplasm ◦ Mitochondria

3 Reactions in the Cytoplasm 1 st step- In the Cytoplasm Called Glycolysis lysis- means to break down some ATP molecules are made

4 Reactions in the Mitochondria 2 nd Step- In the Mitochondria Requires oxygen Large amounts of ATP are produced By products are Water and Carbon dioxide

5 Fermentation Sometimes your body does not have Oxygen available to it Your body can’t use cellular respiration so it uses Fermentation ◦ Does not need Oxygen ◦ Makes less ATP ◦ Occurs in the cell’s cytoplasm

6 Fermentation cont. 2 types of Fermentation Lactic Acid  Occurs in muscle cells  Some bacteria or fungi use it to make cheese, yogurt, and sour cream  Glucose is converted to lactic acid and ATP Alcohol  Some bacteria and yeast make ATP this way  Glucose is converted to ethanol and carbon dioxide

7 Fermentation

8 Photosynthesis Occurs in plant cells and algae Requires chlorophyll- a green pigment Occurs in the chloroplast Requires energy from the sun

9 Carbon cycle
