• Big Idea– Photosynthesis converts the Sun’s energy into

chemical energy, while cellular respiration uses chemical energy to carry out life function.

All living organisms use energy to carry out all biological processes

Macromolecules are assembled and broken down, substances are transported across cell membranes, and genetic instructions are transmitted.

All of these cellular activities require energy.

Main Idea: light energy is trapped and converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis

• Photo – means “light”• Synthesis – means “to create”

Cellular Energy

8.2 Photosynthesis

Chapter 8

Most autotrophs – including plants – make organic compounds, such as sugars, by a process called photosynthesis

Cellular Energy

8.2 Photosynthesis

Chapter 8

Overview of Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis occurs in two phases.

Cellular Energy

Light-dependent reactions

Light-independent reactions

8.2 Photosynthesis

Chapter 8

Phase One: Light Reactions (Light – Dependent Reaction)

The absorption of light is the first step in photosynthesis.

Light energy is absorbed and then transformed into chemical energy in the form of ATP and NADPH

Electron Transport

Light energy excites electrons in photosystem II and also causes a water molecule to split, releasing an electron into the electron transport system, H+ into the thylakoid space, and O2 as a waste product.

Cellular Energy

8.2 Photosynthesis

Chapter 8

The excited electrons move from photosystem II to an electron-acceptor molecule in the thylakoid membrane.

The electron-acceptor molecule transfers the electrons along a series of electron-carriers to photosystem I.

Cellular Energy

1st Step (Carbon Fixation) - Six CO2 molecules combine with six 5-carbon compounds to form twelve 3-carbon molecules called 3-PGA.

2nd Step (Reduction) - The chemical energy stored in ATP and NADPH is transferred to the 3-PGA molecules to form high-energy molecules called (glyceraldehyde 3- phosphate) G3P.

Chapter 8

Cellular Energy

8.2 Photosynthesis

3rd Step - Two G3P molecules leave the cycle to be used for the production of glucose and other organic compounds.

Final Step (Regeneration of RuBP)- An enzyme called rubisco converts the remaining ten G3P molecules into 5-carbon molecules called RuBP. These molecules combine with new carbon dioxide molecules to continue the cycle.

Chapter 8

8.3 Cellular Respiration

Cellular Energy

Cellular respiration occurs in two main parts.

Glycolysis

Aerobic respiration

Chapter 8

Glucose is broken down in the cytoplasm through the process of glycolysis.

8.3 Cellular Respiration

Cellular EnergyChapter 8

Glycolysis

8.3 Cellular Respiration

Cellular Energy

Two molecules of ATP and two molecules of NADH are formed for each molecule of glucose that is broken down.

Two molecules of ATP are required to start the reactions that will produce energy for the cell

Chapter 8

Glycolysis8.3 Cellular Respiration

Cellular Energy

• 2 phosphate groups are joined to glucose (the 2 Phosphate groups are derived from 2 molecules of ATP)

• The 6-Carbon molecule of Glucose is broken into two 3-Carbon compounds

• Two Phosphate groups are added and electrons and hydrogen ions (H+) combine with two NAD+ molecules to form NADH molecules

• Keep in mind that NAD+ is an electron carrier that is similar to NADP (an electron carrier used during photosynthesis)

• The two 3-Carbon compounds are converted into two molecules of pyruvate

• At the same time 4 molecules of ATP are produced

Chapter 8

Glycolysis

Glycolysis has a net result of two ATP and two pyruvate.

8.3 Cellular Respiration

Cellular EnergyChapter 8

Krebs Cycle

8.3 Cellular Respiration

Cellular Energy

Also known as the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle

Also known as the citric acid cycle

Chapter 8

Krebs Cycle

8.3 Cellular Respiration

Cellular Energy

Most of the energy from the glucose is still contained in the pyruvate.

The series of reactions in which pyruvate is broken down into carbon dioxide is called the Krebs cycle.

When oxygen is present, pyruvate is transported into the mitochondrial matrix

Chapter 8

8.3 Cellular Respiration

Cellular Energy

• Begins with acetyl CoA combining with a 4-Carbon compound to form a 6 – Carbon compound known as citric acid

• Citric acid is then broken down in the next series of steps, releasing 2 molecules of carbon dioxide and generating one ATP, three NADH, and one FADH2. FAD is another electron carrier similar to NAD+ and NADP+

• Acetyl CoA and citric acid are generated and the cycle continues.

Chapter 8

Before the Krebs Cycle

8.3 Cellular Respiration

Cellular Energy

Pyruvate first reacts with coenzyme A (CoA) to form a 2-Carbon intermediate called acetyl CoA.

At the same time NAD+ is converted to NADH and carbon dioxide is released.

Acetyl CoA then moves to the mitochondria matrix. 2 CO2 and 2NADH are produced.

Chapter 8

8.3 Cellular Respiration

Cellular Energy

Two molecules of pyruvate are formed during glycolysis. This means that there are two “turns” of the Krebs Cycle for each glucose molecule.

Chapter 8

8.3 Cellular Respiration

Cellular Energy

The net yield from the Krebs cycle is six CO2 molecules, two ATP, eight NADH, and two FADH2.

Cellular Energy

Electron Transport

• The final step in the breakdown of glucose.• Point where most ATP is produced• Electrons and hydrogen ions from NADH and FADH2

produced in Krebs Cycle are used to convert ADP to ATP.

• Electrons move along mitochondrial membrane from one protein to another.

• H+ ions are pumped into the mitochondrial matrix across the inner mitochondrial membrane.

• Those H+ ions then diffuse through ATP synthase into the mitochondrial matrix. This process converts ADP to ATP in a process called chemiosmosis
