Unit 1: Construct the evidence for the cycling of matter and the flow of energy Sections tested Chapter 4.1, 4.2, 4.5, 4.6
2
4.1 KEY CONCEPT All cells need chemical energy.
3
The chemical energy used for most cell processes is carried by ATP.
Molecules in food store chemical energy (ATP) in their bonds. Carbohydrates is also know as glucose. You must be able to draw a Glucose Molecule Glucose molecule
4
ATP transfers energy from the breakdown of food molecules to cells so they can function.
Energy is released when a phosphate group is removed. Be able to label diagram: where phosphate is removed and where it enters phosphate removed
5
Organisms break down carbon-based molecules to produce ATP.
Carbohydrates are the molecules most commonly broken down to make ATP. up to 36 ATP from one glucose molecule You must know difference between ADP and ATP triphosphate adenosine diphosphate tri=3 di=2
6
Fats store the most energy.
80 percent of the energy in your body about 146 ATP from a fat (lipid) Proteins are least likely to be broken down to make ATP. Proteins also form 36 ATP per molecule You must be able to fill out this diagram below
7
A few types of organisms do not need sunlight and photosynthesis as a source of energy.
Some organisms live in places that never get sunlight. In chemosynthesis, chemical energy is used to build carbon-based molecules. YOU MUST be able to define what chemosynthesis is.

Review of section 4.1 A question like this WILL be on UNIT 1 test
This is based on a 2015 AP Biology question A item of food has 6 carbohydrates, 8 proteins, and 3 lipids. How many calories does the item have? How many ATPs will this item form?
9
Unit 1: Construct the evidence for the cycling of matter and the flow of energy
Sections tested Chapter 4.1, 4.2, 4.5, 4.6
10
KEY CONCEPT The overall process of photosynthesis produces sugars that store chemical energy.
11
Photosynthetic organisms are producers
Photosynthetic organisms are producers. Producers produce food from light Know these three things about PRODUCERS Producers make their own source of chemical energy. Plants use photosynthesis and are producers. Photosynthesis captures energy from sunlight to make sugars.
12
Chlorophyll is a molecule that absorbs light energy.
KNOW how Photosynthesis happens chloroplast leaf cell leaf Chlorophyll is a molecule that absorbs light energy. In plants, chlorophyll is found in organelles called chloroplasts.
13
The light-dependent reactions capture energy from sunlight.
KNOW THIS! The light-dependent reactions capture energy from sunlight. Reaction in order chlorophyll absorbs light energy oxygen is released carbon dioxide is taken in from atmosphere Sugar is produced
14
The equation for the overall process is:
Know this equation! The equation for the overall process is: 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2 C6H12O6 granum (stack of thylakoids) thylakoid sunlight 1 six-carbon sugar 6H2O 6CO2 6O2 chloroplast 1 2 4 3 energy stroma (fluid outside the thylakoids)
15
KNOW WHY WE HAVE THE 6 in front
Class activity KNOW what each part is CO2 Carbon Dioxide H2O Water or dihydrogen monoxide C6H12O6 Sugar, glucose, carbohydrate O2 Oxygen
16
KEY CONCEPT Cellular respiration is an aerobic process which convert glucose to energy in animals
17
Equation for cellular respiration
KNOW cellular respiration equation C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy KNOW how to write equation in words glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + energy This is how we get energy to do anything everything!
18
Step 1: Glycolysis – Breakdown of glucose
Energy (ATP) is needed to break down glucose *This will eventually lead to more ATP being made Two ATP molecules are used to split glucose Four ATP molecules are produced NADH produced 2 Pyruvates produced (3 carbon molecules)
19
Step 2: Krebs cycle The 2 three carbon pyruvates are broken down to produce more NADH and FADH2
20
Step 3: electron transport chain
The Hydrogen's on the NADH and FADH2 carry energy into the cell via gradient Water released as waste It is the cell in our body that needs energy!
21
So we said glucose creates 35 ATP/molecule?
The breakdown of one glucose molecule produces 38 molecules of ATP. Why did we sat 1 glucose molecule makes 36 total ATP?
22
Unit 1 Section 4. Last notes for over a week
Unit 1 Section 4! Last notes for over a week! Fermentation allows the production of a small amount of ATP without aerobically (without oxygen)
23
This is also how alcohol is made
Fermentation is an anaerobic process. occurs when oxygen is not available for cellular respiration Produces 2 ATP (compared to 38 when oxygen is avaliable)
24
In fermentation in the body, pyruvates are converted to lactic acid
Lactic acid slows your muscles! It causes cramps, tightness It is your body's way of telling you that you aren’t getting enough oxygen! Which is good since you are producing less ATP (you have less energy)
