1
PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND CELLULAR RESPIRATION CHAPTER 8 & 9
2
ENERGY & ATP Compounds that store energy: *ATP*NADH *NADPH*FADH 2
3
–ATP chief energy storing molecule; composed of: –adenine –Phosphates –Ribose (5 carbon sugar)
4
High energy bonds
5
ATP does three types of work: –mechanical functions for cell –active transport for movement of molecules across membrane –breakdown and synthesis of large molecules
6
ATP releases energy when a bond between 2 phosphates (P) is broken –Becomes ADP + phosphate A – P ~ P ~ P A – P ~ P +P + energy (releasing P & energy)
8
ATP can be regenerated by bonding a phosphate back to ADP
10
SOURCES OF ENERGY Autotrophs -- organisms that make food from carbon dioxide and energy like sunlight; organisms that make their own food
11
Heterotrophs -- organisms that depend on autotrophs or other heterotrophs for food; organisms that cannot make their own food
12
PHOTOSYNTHESIS Energy from sunlight –Introduction to Photosynthesis Process in which autotrophs convert light energy into chemical bond energy of carbohydrates (sugar and starch)
13
–Pigment -- molecule that absorbs certain wavelengths of light chlorophyll -- absorbs violet, blue, and red light
15
Reflected wavelengths determine what color you perceive an object to be; Absorbed wavelengths provide energy for photosynthesis
16
History –Van Helmont’s studies of mass accounted for contribution of water to plant growth.
17
–Priestley’s “candle” experiments showed oxygen needed for burning and that plants produced oxygen.
18
Ingenhousz – effect shown by Priestley only occurs when the plant is exposed to light
19
Conclusion of all 3: –in light, plants transform CO 2 and water into carbohydrates and oxygen
20
Chloroplasts –organelle that performs photosynthesis thylakoid grana
21
LEAF PLANT CELLS CHLOROPLAST
23
Thylakoid - sacs of membrane, chlorophyll containing structure in the chloroplast Grana - stacks of thylakoid, light collecting photosystems Stroma - gel-like material
24
stroma thylakoid grana Chloroplast
25
Overview of Photosynthesis 6CO 2 + 6 H 2 O ---------> C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 –Occurs in the chloroplast –Produces glucose
26
- Requires light energy to start –Uses ATP & NADPH –Divided into 2 main parts Light Dependent Reactions Light Independent Reactions (Calvin Cycle)
27
Light Dependent Reactions –first stage of photosynthesis requires light and water –Takes place on thylakoid membrane water is split O 2 is released Electrons are harvested and used to make ATP and NADPH
28
Light-Independent Reactions or The Calvin CycleLight-Independent Reactions or The Calvin Cycle –Takes place in the stroma –requires the products of the light-dependent reactions –CO 2 is used to build carbohydrates (glucose)

31
Cellular Respiration Energy-Yielding Processes in Cells –Involves Breaking Down Food –Series of Chemical Reactions that Produce ATP
32
Two Main Types: Cellular Respiration Fermentation
33
Cellular Respiration –process by which glucose molecules are broken down to release energy C 6 H 12 O 6 + O 2 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + ATP (Energy)
34
–Fats, carbohydrates, and proteins may be broken down
36
Cellular Respiration (continued) –requires oxygen; aerobic process –produces 36 ATP molecules for each glucose molecule –reverse equation of photosynthesis
37
Overall Chemical Reaction Glucose + Oxygen -->Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy (ATP & Heat) C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 -----> 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + Energy (ATP & Heat)
38
Complete Cellular Respiration has Three Parts: –Glycolysis –Krebs Cycle –Electron Transport Chain
40
Glycolysis –process by which glucose is converted to pyruvate and energy is released –occurs in the cytoplasm
41
During the process, glucose yields 2ATP and pyruvates
42
Krebs Cycle –Pyruvates used –Occurs in mitochondria –two ATP formed for each glucose
44
Electron Transport Energy from Krebs powers ETC requires oxygen occurs in the mitochondria (powerhouse) produces 32 molecules of ATP

47
Fermentation –extraction of energy from food –does not require oxygen
48
–includes steps of glycolysis –produces 2 ATP molecules
49
Fermentation (continued) two important types include Alcoholic Fermentation Lactic Acid Fermentation
50
Alcoholic Fermentation pyruvate converted to ethanol and carbon dioxide carried out by yeast and bacteria
52
Lactic Acid Fermentation –pyruvate converted to lactic acid –carried out by fungi and bacteria in making cheese and yogurt
53
carried out by animals in muscle cells during early stages of strenuous exercise (blood cannot supply oxygen fast enough) – makes your muscles sore!
55
Anaerobic Respiration Some organisms do not ever use oxygen in the process of respiration –use sulfur, nitrogen, or carbon
56
Energy Flow in the Biosphere Making Food –most photosynthetic organisms produce more sugars than they need
57
animals eat photosynthetic and heterotrophic organisms when plants or animals die, their energy stores are released to the environment
