3
What happens to all these nutrients? Your body cells derive two things from your food –Energy To help you move, think, breath etc –Nutrients Nutrients to grow (in children), to replace broken down cells, to repair etc
4
Metabolism Photosynthesis Fuel Metabolism Copyright 2005 Wadsworth Group, a division of Thomson Learning
5
Photosynthesis: Light energy is converted by plants to chemical energy Respiration: Chemical energy stored in plants is converted by animals into new forms of chemical energy, mechanical energy, electrical energy and heat energy Metabolism = Anabolism + Catabolism
6
Breakdown/ Hydrolysis Proteins to Amino Acids, Starch to Glucose Synthesis/Condensation Amino Acids to Proteins, Glucose to Starch Yin & Yang of Metabolism Metabolism = Anabolism + Catabolism
