No cell wall No chloroplast No photosynthesis Lysosomes Centrioles (cell

Organelle for photosynthesis – chloroplast Organelle to convert chemical energy into
energy the cell can use – mitochondria Energy currency of the cell – ATP Why are plants green? Chlorophyll
Autotrophs and Heterotrophs: Autotrophs
Organisms that manufacture their own food (Plants) Also known as producers
Heterotrophs Organisms that cannot make their own
food (Humans) Also known as consumers
Autotrophs and Photosynthesis: Autotrophs use the energy directly from sunlight
and store it in organic compounds. They convert solar energy to chemical energy
stored in carbohydrates (glucose). Photosynthesis is a series of complex reactions in which the product of one reaction is consumed in the next reaction. A series of reactions linked in this way is called a biochemical pathway.

What is Light?
Light Speed, c = 2.9979 x 108 m/s
or 670.6 million mph
Which type of light carries more energy, blue or red?
• Light travels through space as waves of energy.
• Different colors have different wavelengths.
Why are plants usually green?
Electromagnetic Spectrum• Wave length and energy are inversely
proportional
• The smaller the wave length, the more energy
• Blue light is high energy
• Red light is low energy
They reflect green light
Photosynthesis Takes place in the chloroplast Thylakoids – saclike
photosynthetic membrane in the chloroplast
Grana – stacks of thylakoids
Stroma - the region outside of the thylakoid membranes
Plant (Chloroplast) Pigments Membranes of the thylakoid contain a variety
of pigments Pigments – light absorbing molecules Chlorophyll – the most abundant pigment in
plants that absorbs blue and red light. Chlorophyll a - blue-green pigment Chlorophyll b - yellow-green pigment
Accessory Pigments – absorb light in other regions of the spectrum Carotene - an orange pigment
Xanthophyll - a yellow pigment
Anthocyanin – a red pigment
Accessory Pigments Why do plants need accessory pigments?
They absorb light in other regions of the spectrum The accessory pigments are always present in
most plants but masked by the chlorophyll.
Pigments Why do leaves change color in the fall?
Answer: Shorter day lengths stop chlorophyll production, and expose accessory pigments
Chemical Energy and ATP: One of the most important compounds that cells
use to store and release energy is adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
ATP consists of adenine, a 5-carbon sugar called ribose, and three phosphate groups.
Why is ATP useful to cells?
ATP can easily release and store energy by breaking and re-forming the bonds between its phosphate groups. This characteristic of ATP makes it exceptionally useful as a basic energy source for all cells.ATP Synthase (3:21)
ADP and ATP Cells store energy by adding a phosphate group to
adenosine diphosphate (ADP) molecules Cells release energy from ATP molecules by subtracting a phosphate group
The energy of ATP is locked in the bonds between the phosphate groups. When the terminal phosphate group of the ATP molecule
is removed by hydrolysis, energy is released and adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and phosphate are formed.

An Overview of Photosynthesis: Because light is a form of energy, any compound
that absorbs light absorbs energy. Chlorophyll absorbs visible light especially well.
When chlorophyll absorbs light, a large fraction of the light energy is transferred to electrons. These high-energy electrons make photosynthesis work.
Photosynthesis (3:39)
Light-Dependent Reactions: Photosynthesis involves two sets of reactions.
The first set of reactions is known as the light-dependent reactions because they require the direct involvement of light and light-absorbing pigments.
Light-Dependent Reactions: The light-dependent reactions use ENERGY from
sunlight to produce energy rich compounds, like ATP and NADPH. Water is required and Oxygen is a byproduct
These reactions take place within the THYLAKOID membranes of the chloroplast.
Light-Independent Reactions (Calvin Cycle):
Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and complete the process of photosynthesis by producing sugars and other carbohydrates.
During light-independent reactions, ATP and NADPH molecules produced in the light-dependent reactions are used to produce high-energy sugars from carbon dioxide.
Light-Independent Reactions: No light is required to power the light-
independent reactions.
The light-independent reactions take place outside the thylakoids, in the STROMA.

Rate of Photosynthesis: Light Intensity:
Increase rate of photosynthesis, then levels off (maximum rate of photosynthesis) Higher intensity, excites more electrons in
chlorophyll @ some intensity, all available electrons are
excited
Rate of Photosynthesis: Temperature:
Higher temperature accelerates the chemical reactions.
Peaks @ certain temperature because the enzymes become ineffective and unstable
Rate of Photosynthesis: Amount of CO2:
Increases rate of photosynthesis to a point, then levels off
Water Availability: Increases rate of photosynthesis to a point, then
levels off

Chemical Energy and Food
Cellular respiration happens slowly and in many steps.
If all the energy was release in one step… Most would be lost as light and heat! Cellular respiration breaks down glucose
molecules and banks their energy in ATP
An Overview of Cellular Respiration:
Stages of Cellular Respiration: The three main
stages of cellular respiration are
1. Glycolysis2. Krebs cycle3. Electron transport
chain.
Oxygen and Energy: Pathways of cellular
respiration that require oxygen are called AEROBIC. The Krebs cycle and electron transport chain are both aerobic processes. Both processes take place inside the mitochondria.
Oxygen and Energy: Glycolysis and fermentation
are anaerobic processes. They do not directly require oxygen, nor do they rely on an oxygen-requiring process to run. However, glycolysis is still considered part of cellular respiration. Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of a cell.
