6. 6 Question: Where does photosynthesis take place?

7. 7 Plants Autotrophs – produce their own food (glucose)Autotrophs – produce their own food (glucose) Process called photosynthesisProcess called photosynthesis Mainly occurs in the leaves:Mainly occurs in the leaves: a.stoma - pores b.mesophyll cells Stoma Mesophyll Cell Chloroplast

8. 8 Stomata (stoma) Pores in a plant’s cuticle through which water vapor and gases (CO 2 & O 2 ) are exchanged between the plant and the atmosphere. Guard Cell Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) Oxygen (O 2 ) Found on the underside of leaves Stoma

12. 12 Question: Why are plants green?

13. 13 Chlorophyll Molecules Located in the thylakoid membranesLocated in the thylakoid membranes Chlorophyll have Mg + in the centerChlorophyll have Mg + in the center Chlorophyll pigments harvest energy (photons) by absorbing certain wavelengths (blue-420 nm and red-660 nm are most important)Chlorophyll pigments harvest energy (photons) by absorbing certain wavelengths (blue-420 nm and red-660 nm are most important) Plants are green because the green wavelength is reflected, not absorbedPlants are green because the green wavelength is reflected, not absorbed.

16. 16 Absorption of Light by Chlorophyll wavelength Absorption violet blue green yellow orange red Chlorophyll absorbs blue-violet & red light best

17. 17 Question: During the fall, what causes the leaves to change colors?

18. 18 Fall Colors In addition to the chlorophyll pigments, there are other pigments presentIn addition to the chlorophyll pigments, there are other pigments present During the fall, the green chlorophyll pigments are greatly reduced revealing the other pigmentsDuring the fall, the green chlorophyll pigments are greatly reduced revealing the other pigments Carotenoids are pigments that are either red, orange, or yellowCarotenoids are pigments that are either red, orange, or yellow

19. 19 Redox Reaction The transfer of one or more electrons from one reactant to another Two types: 1.Oxidation is the loss of e - 2.Reduction is the gain of e -

20. 20 Oxidation Reaction The loss of electrons from a substance or the gain of oxygen. glucose 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O  C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 Oxidation Carbon dioxide Water Oxygen

21. 21 Reduction Reaction The gain of electrons to a substance or the loss of oxygen. glucose 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O  C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 Reduction

22. 22 Question: Why do cells use for energy?

23. 23 Energy for Life on Earth Sunlight is the ULTIMATE energy for all life on Earth Plants store energy in the chemical bonds of sugars Chemical energy is released as ATP during cellular respiration

24. 24 Structure of ATP ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate It is composed of the nitrogen base ADENINE, the pentose (5C) sugar RIBOSE, and three PHOSPHATE groups The LAST phosphate group is bonded with a HIGH ENERGY chemical bond This bond can be BROKEN to release ENERGY for CELLS to use

25. 25 Removing a Phosphate from ATP Breaking the LAST PHOSPHATE bond from ATP, will --- –Release ENERGY for cells to use –Form ADP –Produce a FREE PHOSPHATE GROUP

26. 26 High Energy Phosphate Bond

27. 27 FREE PHOSPHATE can be re- attached to ADP reforming ATP Process called Phosphorylation
