Review: Energy for Life
2
1. Define the following and explain their importance. a.Photosynthesis – b.Cell respiration – c.Glucose - The way plants make food (sugar) using light energy. At beginning of almost all food chains on Earth. The way sugar is broken down to get energy. How almost all living things get energy. The sugar all living things use for energy.

Hydrothermal vent

d. Chlorophyll – e. Chloroplast – f. Mitochondrion – g. ATP - The green pigment that absorbs light for photosynthesis. Plants couldn’t do photosynthesis w.out it. The part of plant cells where photosynthesis happens. Plants couldn’t do photosynthesis w.out them. The part of plant and animal cells where cell respiration Happens. Couldn’t break down sugar for energy w.out them. The form of energy cells get from breaking down sugar. More usable form of energy than sugar.
5
Remember: plants do cell respiration too!

2. Explain the difference between autotrophs and heterotrophs, give examples of each. Autotrophs can make their own food; heterotrophs have to eat other living things for energy. Autotrophs: plants, most anything green Heterotrophs: animals, mushrooms, fungi, bacteria, most any non-green thing. Why are mushrooms not considered autotrophic? They aren’t green. No chlorophyll, no photosynthesis.

3. Write the chemical formula for photosynthesis using symbols and words to identify the reactants and products. 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + (energy) C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 Carbon dioxide waterlight glucose oxygen reactants products

4. Write the chemical formula for cellular respiration using symbols and words to identify the reactants and products. C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + energy glucoseoxygen Carbon dioxide water ATP reactants products
9
5. State 2 similarities between photosynthesis and cell respiration and 2 ways in which they are opposite reactions. Both involve sugar and energy. Photosynthesis makes sugar, cell respiration breaks it down. The equation for CR is the reverse of photosynthesis.

6. Describe how ATP and ADP molecules store and release energy for cells. Energy released from ATP by breaking bond off 3 rd phosphate, forming ADP Energy stored by adding 3 rd phosphate to ADP, forming ATP
11
In cell respiration, 36 ADP are converted into ATP…. C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + energy glucoseoxygenCarbon dioxide water ATP 36 ADP 36 ATP
12
7. Explain how almost all living things on Earth depend directly or indirectly on photosynthesis. Almost every food chain on Earth begins with photosynthesis. Plants make food by photosynthesis. Animals eat plants. Other animals eat animals that eat plants, etc.
13
8. Explain in terms of cell respiration why we need oxygen to live. Cells need oxygen to break down glucose to get energy for life processes. Without energy, cells die, we die…. What does burning sugar and burning wax have in common? Both need oxygen
14
Suppose you came home and found a family member unconscious on the floor. What are the first two vital life functions you should check for? Explain in terms of cell respiration why these two functions are so important to check. Breathing and pulse/heart beat. Breathing: make sure taking in oxygen to break down sugar for energy. Pulse: make sure oxygen being pumped to all organs and cells so they can do cell respiration.
15
9. Discuss similarities and differences in how cells use glucose and ATP. Both forms of energy, both needed by cells. Glucose has more energy, but less usable form. ATP has less energy, but more usable form. Glucose like $100 bill, ATP like $1 bills
16
10. Give 3 examples of life processes that require energy. Moving Heart beating Thinking Growing and developing Digesting food Transporting things in & out of cells Making more cells
17
11. Explain the difference between manipulated variables, responding variables, and controlled variables in an experiment. 1 thing changed Thing measured as response to manip. variable Manip. Variable: Resp. variable: Controlled variables: Things kept same to make fair test
