3
9.1-The Need for Energy Essential for life Active transport, cell division, movement, & production, transport & storage of proteins require energy. Energy molecule ATP adenosine triphosphate
4
Forming & Breaking Down ATP Phosphate groups are positive so they repel each other. Bonding them requires an input of energy. AMP adenosine monophosphate 1 group ADP adenosine diphospate 2 groups ATP With 3 groups, break down releases even more energy.
5
Forming & Breaking Down ATP ATP With 3 groups, breakdown releases even more energy. ADP-ATP cycle is renewable The cell doesn’t have to store all the energy it needs.
6
Forming & Breaking Down ATP When ATP is broken down to ADP, it can be released from the binding site in the protein and be made available to another ATP.
7
Uses of Cell Energy Making new molecules Building cell membranes & organelles To maintain homeostasis To eliminate waste Transmit nerve impulses
8
9.2 Photosynthesis Trapping Energy from Sunlight Process of changing sunlight to glucose in 2 steps Light Dependent RXN converts it to chemical E in form of ATP Light Independent RXN uses ATP to make glucose
9
9.2 Photosynthesis
10
Photosynthesis- light-dependent Occurs in the chloroplast in the membranes of the thylakoid discs Pigment chlorophyll absorbs light (reflects green)
11
Photosynthesis- light-dependent Energy from light is transferred to electrons Electron are passed to a series of proteins or electron transport chain Water is split to release oxygen; H ion joins carrier molecule NADP (photolysis)
12
Photosynthesis- light-dependent NADPH transfers energy to stroma H ions are pumped into thylakoid & provide energy for ATP or chemiosmosis Second Phase is light independent- The Calvin Cycle
13
Photosynthesis- light-independent oThe Calvin Cycle oSeries of carbon dioxide reactions to form sugar. oC atom from CO 2 bonds w/ 5 carbon sugar ribulose. (Carbon fixation) o6C sugar divides into 2 3C sugars
14
Photosynthesis- light-independent oCalvin Cycle o bonds w/ 5 carbon sugar ribulose. o6C sugar divides into 2 3C sugars oSeries of rxn convert 3C molecules into higher energy PGAL (phosphoglyceralde- hyde)
15
Photosynthesis- light-independent oCalvin Cycle oSeries of rxn convert 3C molecules into higher energy PGAL (phosphoglyceralde- hyde) o5 PGAL make 3 RuBP to replenish what was used so process can continue
16
9.3 Getting Energy to Make ATP Cellular respiration- process that mitochondria use to break down food molecules to ATP. 3 stages of respiration Glycolysis Citric Acid Cycle Electron Transport Chain
17
Respiration Glycolysis series of chemical reactions in cytoplasm to break glucose (6C) to pyruvic acid (3C). Anaerobic process Takes 2 ATP to start glycolysis but only makes 4 ATP. Not effective
18
Respiration Glycolysis uses an electron carrier, NAD +, which forms NADH when it accepts 2 electrons. After glycolysis, the PGAL moves into the mitochondria where 2 more stages occur.
19
Respiration Citric Acid Cycle (Krebs)- another series of chem RxNs changing acetyl-CoA (2C) to form ATP & CO 2. NAD + & FAD pick up energized electrons & pass them to ETC.
20
Respiration Electron Transport Chain- inner membrane of the mitochondria- energized electrons are passed from protein to protein releasing energy as they go.
21
Respiration Electron Transport Chain- some energy is used to make ATP & some is used to pump H + into mitochondrion center Final e acceptor is O which reacts w/ H to form 2 water molecules Overall, 32 ATP made aerobicly + 4= 36 total
22
Fermentation Anaerobic process to produce ATP w/out oxygen during heavy exertion. Two types: Lactic acid fermentation Alcoholic fermentation
23
Fermentation Lactic Acid Fermentation- supplies energy when O is scarce 2 pyruvic acids use NADH to make 2 lactic acid molecules. 2 ATP formed for each glucose and lactic acid goes to the muscle cells & on to the liver to be broken into pyruvic acid. Lactic acid causes muscle fatigue.
24
Fermentation Alcoholic fermentation- used by yeast cells & some bacteria to produce CO 2 & ethyl alcohol. CO 2 produced by yeast makes bread rise.
25
Comparing Photosynthesis & Respiration Food synthesized Sun’s energy stored CO 2 used Oxygen given off Requires light Produces sugars Food broken down Glucose energy released CO 2 produced Oxygen used Does not need light Produces CO 2 & water
