1. Chapter 6 & 7 Photosynthesis and Respiration

2. I. ENERGY: The ability to do work  A. Why do cells need energy? 1) Active Transport 2) Cell division, growth and development 3) To make macromolecules- proteins, carbohydrates, etc. 4) To build cell parts-extra cellular membranes

3. B. Two classifications of organisms based upon how they obtain energy:  1) Autotrophs: (producers) organisms that can make their own food( glucose); example plants

4. Autotrophs

5.  2) Heterotrophs: (consumers) organisms that obtain food from other sources; example: animals and fungi

6. Heterotrophs

7. C. Pathway of Energy: photosynthesis cellular respiration photosynthesis cellular respiration  Sun  autotrophs  food(glucose)  heterotrophs  ATP

8.  D. Cellular Energy = ATP: Adenosine Triphosphate  Removes phosphate Removes phosphate  Release energy Release energy  ATP is like a rechargeable battery

11. II. PHOTOSYNTHESIS: PHOTO = light SYNTHESIS = to make Process by which solar energy is converted to cellular energy (ATP) and stored food (glucose)  Overall Reaction: sunlight  6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 0  C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2 chlorophyll chlorophyll  Occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells  Solar E is converted by the use of pigment, molecules that absorb certain wavelengths of light and reflect (what we see) others.

12.  Chlorophyll: main photosynthetic pigment, absorbs red & blue light, reflects green  Accessory pigments:  Carotenes: absorb blue & green, reflect yellow and orange.  In fall, chlorophyll is broken down so we see the colors of the accessory pigments.

13. Photosynthesis consists of two phases: 1) Light Reactions: the “photo” part  Solar energy converted to cellular energy (ATP)  Chlorophyll “captures” (absorbs) light  Water is split, releasing oxygen gas  Occurs in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast

14.  2) Calvin Cycle: the “synthesis” part  Energy from light reactions used to “fix” CO 2 into glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6 )  Occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast.  Called Dark or light independent Reactions

15.  In hot dry conditions plants loose water through stomata which are small pores usually located on the undersurface of leaves  They close these to prevent water loss

16. The rate of photosynthesis is affected by: Light intensity, carbon dioxide levels, temperature

22. III. CELLULAR RESPIRATION  A series of chemical reactions that release energy by breaking down glucose and making H 2 O and CO 2.  Overall Reaction:  C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2  6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 0  Glucose is the primary source of energy at the cellular level. The stored energy in its bonds will be converted to cellular energy in the form of ATP.
