DO NOW 11/1: FIRST: Take out SUPER-IMPORTANT cell parts chart The population of the world is now 7.0 x 10 9 ! Write in standard notation If the population of the US is 3.5 x 10 8, what % of the world population is here in the US?

The Basics: Chloroplasts STRUCTURE: A bean-shaped green organelle with lots of membranes inside. FUNCTION: Photosynthesis (capture light energy to build carbohydrates) CO 2 + H 2 O + light CH 2 O + O 2 ***PLANTS ONLY!!!
4
The Basics: Mitochondria STRUCTURE: A bean-shaped organelle with lots of membranes inside. FUNCTION: Cellular Respiration (break down food to get the energy) CH 2 O + O 2 CO 2 + H 2 O + energy ***All Eukaryotic cells, including plants
6
Mitochondria and Chloroplasts are Energy Converters Mitochondria RELEASE the energy stored in food Chloroplasts CAPTURE the energy of sunlight
7
Endosymbiosis Endosymbiotic Theory: plastids (e.g. chloroplasts) and mitochondria are the descendents of once free-living prokaryotes that were internalized by a larger cell.
8
What about human technology? Humans have developed technology that allow us to release lots of energy originally captured by ancient chloroplasts. In other words, WE BURN FOSSIL FUELS
