    Your Life
    Depends on It!!!
*


    What do living organisms do with their energy?
    (Create a verbal list with your table partner.)
*
*
 Energy is the ability to do work; work is a force on
 something exerted over a certain distance.


So energy is often expressed as forces moving from place
 to place which cause CHANGES which can sometimes be
 noticed or measured.
*




 Energy is neither created or destroyed it
simply changes from one form to another.
*


      Wind to electricity
    Chemical to mechanical
      Food to mechanical
         Solar to food
        Nuclear to heat
       Others? Yes lots!
*

What is a producer?

What is a consumer?

    PHOTOSYNTHESIS
*

             YOU DEFINE IT:
       Photo means ___________.

    Synthesis means _______________.
* A quick word about these molecules.  ATP is
 the fundamental ENERGY molecule for almost
 all cell functions. When your cell needs to do
 ANYTHING requiring energy (or cell work) it
 will ‘burn’ ATP molecules.
* Heres what they look like-------




                    *
adenosine    triphosphate




tri=3




              *
         adenosine   diphosphate




 di=2
phosphate removed




*
* When the last “P” is broken off, energy is transfered
 which allow your cells to:
  * > make molecules
  * > transport molecules
  * > send chemical signals
  * > reproduce
* ATP is to your cells as         is to your house.




                            *
* When the last “P” is broken off, energy is released
 which allow your cells to:
  * > make molecules
  * > transport molecules
  * > send chemical signals
  * > reproduce
* ATP is to your cells as electricity   is to your house.




                          *
*
* Right NOW, I mean RIGHT NOW, your body is using
 TRILLIONS of molecules of ATP for all your energy needs!!!
* Crazy, eh?Take a moment and give ‘em a pat on the
 proverbial head




     ATPs
* You will notice ATP appearing often in this energy unit
 in both photosynthesis and respiration.
* Keep in mind what it is used for; sometimes it is USED
 for the cell to do things: ATP  ADP
* Other times it is stored:   ADP  ATP




                        *
Okay, back to Photosynthesis:
  What requirements do autotrophs have in
order to feed themselves? You and your table
   partner come up with the 3 main needs!

  HOPEFULLY YOU SAID….




  WATER                               Carbon Dioxide
                    SUNLIGHT
And what kind of food do they makes? Eggs, waffles, steak?
JUST KIDDING! Think of the BIG 4. Which macromolecule
                   might they produce?


  DID YOU GUESS RIGHT…
    CARBOHYDRATES! Specifically
    sugar in the form of glucose.




                      *
SUGAR, OH HONEY HONEY

 Sugar is the molecule that starts the food
 chain, for it is sugar that provides chemical
 energy to the plants and to the organism
 that eat the plants (heterotrophs) either
 directly or indirectly.
Sugar is used by plants for chemical energy
 and as a structural molecule………

CELLULOSE

          Roots are not exposed to sunlight,
    therefore there is no use for chloroplasts to be
                   present in roots.
*

GIVEN:
•Elodea plant is an aquatic plant
•Just like all plants it does
photosynthesis
•Bromothymol blue is an
indicator for Carbon Dioxide gas
How can we test the Elodea to
determine if photosynthesis is
taking place?
LET’S DO AN EXPERIMENT!
*



    LIGHT DEPENDENT REACTION

    LIGHT INDEPENDENT REACTION
*
                      Dependent
*Light energy is captured by the pigment
 “chlorophyll” and used to split water.
*When the water is “split” oxygen is given off as a
 waste product, and the energy from the light is
 transferred in to the hydrogen electrons to make
 two types of cellular energy know as ATP and
 NADPH.
*ATP and NADPH are energy molecules that are
 used to drive the second reaction.
*
Dependent
*Light energy is absorbed by the
 chlorophyll and it is used to split
 water
*O2 oxygen is released (as a waste
 product)
*The energy from the sun is then
 transferred into an ATP molecule by
 using an excited H atom.
                               *
*OK fine, so WHERE’S THE
SUGAR??!!

                     .. It appears
                     in the next
                     step, Oh
                     curious one


              *
            Dependent
*Energy originally from the light
 reaction in the form of cell energy
 molecules ATP and NADPH combine
 with carbon dioxide from the air to
 make the 3-carbon sugar (C3H6O3.)
• BasicallyH + CO2 (with energy)
  = C3H6O3.


                *
              Independent
* There are a series of complex chemical reactions
 that accomplish this process; taken together they
 are known as the Calvin Cycle named after the
 scientist that discovered these steps.
* The resulting 3-carbon sugar produced in the Calvin
 Cycle is then used by the plant to make other
 organic compounds such as the monosaccharide
 (glucose) or the polysaccharide (starch.)
* As before, find all these molecules in the next
 picture


                       *

* What do the building materials represent in the
 photosynthesis equation?
* What do the generators represent?
* What do the carpenters represent?
* What do the finished homes represent?




                         *
* Look for –
  * Starting and ending molecules
  * Interactions with atmosphere
  * MAJOR product??
  * carbohydrates

  * By product??
  * oxygen

               *

  WORK ON THE PHOTOSYNTHESIS BREAKDOWN SHEET. REFER TO THE
  DETAILED EXPLANATIONS IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE ANSWERS.
  KEEP THIS IN MIND- WHERE DOES EACH PART OF THE PHOTOSYNTHESIS
  EQUATION COME FROM?
                                                   From the light
                                                   independent
                                                   reaction and the
 From atmosphere (organisms) From the Sun
                                                   atmosphere

Carbon dioxide + Water + Light Energy  Oxygen + Sugar
                                            Given off in the
                                            light dependent
                                            reaction
     From rain or aquifer
*

  WHAT DO YOU THINK MIGHT AFFECT THE
RATE/SPEED AT WHICH PHOTOSYNTHESIS WILL
                 OCCUR?
          HOW CAN WE TEST IT?




        LET’S DO AN EXPERIMENT!
*
SO WHAT IS NEXT?


After photosynthesis has
produced sugar and released
oxygen…the plants cells use
the sugar and oxygen in a
process called
 CELLULAR RESPIRATION
________________________
which then provides energy
for the entire cell!
What cycle is this ?
