Title: AUTOTROPHS Organisms that make their own food'


1
Cellular Processes
  • AUTOTROPHS- Organisms that make their own food.
  • HETEROTROPH- obtain energy from the food they
    consume.
  • Complementary processes

2
  • ADENOSINE TRIPHOSPHATE (ATP)- energy compound for
    living things.
  • PHOTOSYNTHESIS- plants use the energy of sunlight
    to convert water and CO2 into oxygen and
    carbohydrates (sugars and starches).

3
  • Overall equation for photosynthesis
  • 6CO2 6H2O ? C6H12O6 6O2
  • What does the arrow symbolize in this equation?

4
  • CHLOROPHYLL- Plants principle pigment.
  • Two main types of chlorophyll chlorophyll a and
    chlorophyll b.
  • Chlorophyll a- directly involved in the light
    reactions of photosynthesis.
  • Chlorophyll b (accessory pigment)- assists
    chlorophyll a in capturing light energy

5
  • Thylakoids- arranged in stacks called GRANA.
    STROMA- space surrounding thylakoids.
  • Photosynthesis consists of two main process
    light-dependent (occurs in the thylakoids) and
    light-independent/Calvin Cycle (occurs in the
    stroma.)

7
  • Light-dependent reactions- produce oxygen gas
    convert ADP and NADP into the energy carriers ATP
    and NADPH. Two PHOTOSYSTEMS are used
    PHOTOSYSTEM I and PHOTOSYSTEM II, and an ELECTRON
    TRANSPORT CHAIN.

8
  • The light-dependent part of photosynthesis has
    three main steps
  • 1. Light energy (sun) forces electrons to enter
    a higher energy level (get excited) in
    chlorophyll a of Photosystem II.
  • 2. The excited electrons move through the ETC
    (electron transport chain) from Photosystem II to
    Photosystem I. During this process, H ions are
    transported from the stroma into the inner
    thylakoid and ATP IS PRODUCED.

  • 3. Pigments in Photosystem I use energy from the
    sun to add energy to the electrons. The
    high-energy electrons are then picked up by NADP
    to form NADPH.

  • Look at page 116.
  • Product of the light-dependent portion of
    photosynthesis is ATP and NADPH.

18
  • CALVIN CYCLE- uses ATP and NADPH from the
    light-dependent reactions to produce high-energy
    sugars.

19
  • Because the Calvin Cycle does not require light,
    these reactions are called light-independent
    take place in the STROMA.

20
  • The Calvin Cycle uses six molecules of CO2 to
    produce a single 6-carbon sugar molecule.

21
  • The main products of the Calvin Cycle are
    high-energy sugars.

25
  • How are cellular respiration and photosynthesis
    almost opposite processes?
  • a. Photosynthesis releases energy and cellular
    respiration stores energy.
  • b. Photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide from the
    atmosphere and cellular respiration puts it back.
  • c. Photosynthesis removes oxygen from the
    atmosphere and cellular respiration puts it back.
  • d. All of the above

26
  • Lets sing!!

27
  • CELLULAR RESPIRATION- releases energy by
    breaking down food molecules in the presence of
    oxygen.
  • 6O2 C6H12O6 ? 6CO2 6H2O Energy
  • GLYCOLYSIS- first step of cellular respiration
    one molecule of glucose is broken in half,
    producing two molecules of pyruvic acid, a
    3-carbon compound.

28
  • In the beginning of glycolysis, 2 molecules of
    ATP are used up. When glycolysis is complete, 4
    ATP molecules have been produced. What is the
    net gain of glycolysis?

29
  • Glycolysis is followed by one of three different
    process ALCOHOL FERMENTATION, LACTIC ACID
    FERMENTATION, or the KREBS CYCLE. What
    determines which pathway follows glycolysis?
  • What are the products of glycolysis?
  • When oxygen is not present, glycolysis is
    followed by FERMENTATION releases energy from
    food molecules in the absence of oxygen.

31
  • Fermentation is ANAEROBIC- no oxygen. The two
    main types of fermentation alcoholic
    fermentation and lactic acid fermentation.
  • Yeasts use alcoholic fermentation, forming ethyl
    alcohol and CO2 as wastes. The equation for
    alcoholic fermentation after glycolysis is
  • Pyruvic acid NADH ? alcohol CO2 NAD

32
  • Alcoholic fermentation causes bread dough to rise
    and is the basis of the wine and beer industry.

33
  • In lactic acid fermentation, an enzyme converts
    pyruvic acid into another three-carbon compound,
    called LACTIC ACID.

34
  • Lactic acid- produced in your muscles during
    rapid exercise when the body cannot supply enough
    oxygen to the tissues.
  • Fate of pyruvate
  • If oxygen is available, pyruvic acid enters the
    pathways of cellular respiration. AEROBIC
    respiration produces nearly 20 times as much ATP
    as is produced by glycolysis alone.
  • Glucose ditty

35
  • You have just started a new workout routine. You
    wake up the next morning and your muscles are
    very sore. This muscle soreness is a result of
  • a. alcohol being present in the tissue.
  • b. aerobic respiration.
  • c. lactic acid being present in the tissue.
  • d. the Krebs (TCA) cycle.

36
  • Ok, now well.
  • Finish the notes
  • Watch a few animations to review cellular
    respiration
  • Sing a couple of songs (if youre into it)

37
  • Cellular (aerobic) respiration has two major
    stages the KREBS CYCLE and the ELECTRON
    TRANSPORT CHAIN.
  • In which organelle do you think cellular
    respiration takes place?
  • The pyruvic acid produced in glycolysis enters
    the MITOCHONDRIAL MATRIX, the space inside the
    cristae of a mitochondrion.

38
  • In the presence of oxygen, pyruvic acid produced
    in glycolysis passes to the second stage of
    cellular respiration, the KREBS CYCLE. During
    the Krebs cycle, pyruvic acid is broken down into
    carbon dioxide in a series of energy-extracting
    reactions.
  • Cellular Respiration Animation

39
  • The KREBS CYCLE can be summarized in two steps
  • Pyruvic acid produced by glycolysis enters the
    mitochondria. CO2 is released and a 6-carbon
    molecule called citric acid is produced.
  • As the cycle continues, citric acid is broken
    down into a 4-carbon molecule, more CO2 is
    released, and electrons are transferred to energy
    carriers, then to the ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN.
  • The electron transport chain uses the high-energy
    electrons from the Krebs cycle to convert ADP
    into ATP.
  • Kreb Cycle animation
  • Electron Transport Chain Song

40
  • Predict what will happen if all the ATP
    production in living things stopped.
  • a. Organisms would get severe muscle cramps.
  • b. Organisms would get fat.
  • c. Organisms would die.
  • d. Organisms would become sterile.

  • I wont be here on Monday. (Isabelle has her
    first kindergarten field trip.)

47
  • Be ready for your Open Notes Quiz on Monday! To
    help you do that (n since I couldnt talk to you
    to help you get it yesterday and today), Im
    gonna post this Powerpoint presentation on my
    website.
  • Take a look at it over the weekend (or anytime
    before your exam in two weeks) to help understand
    Cellular Respiration Photosythesis.)
