1
Chapter 6 Cell Energy: Photosynthesis & Respiration
Plants go through photosynthesis our body does the _________- continuous cycle
2
Experiments Jan Van ______- planted tree- 5 yrs later- no soil mass change- tree grew source was WATER not soil Joseph ______- candle and plant in glass bell- candle alone did not burn plant w/______- plant produced O2 needed for candle to burn
3
Requirements for Photosynthesis
air- CO2 ________ H2O Products of Photosynthesis- glucose (simple sugars) ________
5
Photosynthesis & NRG – some terms
________ use a source of direct nrg (sunlight) to produce food from _______ molecules heterotroph Cannot produce own source of food obtain nrg from foods eaten- other ________ and autotrophs
6
Structure of Chloroplast
________ thylakoid membrane _______ light reactions- ________ membranes ________ reactions- stroma
7
electron micrograph of plant chloroplast
8
Light Reactions pigments capture sunlight to “make” nrg
chlorophyll absorbs red-orange-blue-violet-but __________ green happens in the disk structures called thylakoid membranes can be summarized in 4 actions…
10
Light Reactions 1- light is absorbed by pigments- light is passed from pigment to pigment 2- electron transport- high nrg e- passed along by carriers- converts _______ to NADPH (E storing compound) 3- ________ production 4- ATP formation- ADP+P by enzyme in thylakoid membranes
11
Calvin Cycle (_____ __________ )
“dark” because light does not play a specific role in these reactions- could happen in light OR dark uses: ATP and high E __________ (e- raised to a higher nrg level by absorption of sunlight) happens in the ________ of chloroplast
12
Calvin Cycle (Dark Reactions )
5-C sugar combines w/CO2 to make 2 3-C sugars (enzyme rubisco helps) the 3-C sugars are converted to PGAL w/nrg in NADPH & ATP (light rxns) (phosphoglyceraldehyde) makes glucose Calvin cycle must go around ______ to produce 1 molecule of glucose- why?? hint- glucose is a 6-C sugar
13
brief pictorial representation of photosynthesis
15
The two reactions together (light and dark)- make the GLUCOSE for plants
17
The opposite reaction (process)…Respiration
Where does nrg come from for animals? Respiration- 2 types aerobic respiration- oxygen required anaerobic respiration- no oxygen required
18
Anaerobic = fermentation
Glucose 2 ethanol + 2 carbon dioxide + 2 ATPs only 2 ATPs (compare that later to # produced by Aerobic) C6H12O62 CH3CH2OH + 2 CO2 + NRG (ethanol) (2 ATP)
19
2 types of Fermentation Alcoholic Fermentation
Lactic Acid Fermentation
20
Alcoholic Fermentation
takes place in yeast cells & a few other microorganisms- important to bakers and brewers…Why? glucose broken down into: 2-Carbon alcohol CO2 produces “bubbles” in beer, sparkling wine allows bread to rise
21
Lactic Acid Fermentation
happens in muscle cells hard workouts- no O2 – NRG still needs to be produced- cell changes to anaerobic respiration build-up of lactic acid causes a burning, painful sensation in muscles
22
Aerobic Respiration glycolysis and respiration
C6H12O6 +6O26 CO2 + 6 H2O + E (38 ATP) glycolysis and respiration glycolysis- glucose is broken down into pyruvic acid (cytosol) pyruvic acid moves into mitochondria for Kreb’s cycle (citric acid cycle) 38 ATP produced (net)!
23
Aerobic Respiration
24
Electron Transport Chain
This takes place in the inter membrane of the Mitochondrion This is where most of the ATP is made. A pair of electrons moving down the chain can Produce enough energy to make 3 ATP
