Background InformationProducers: are able to convert the
sun’s energy into glucose through a process called photosynthesis
Include plants, some protists and bacteria
AKA autotrophs
Photosynthesis requires a special set of pigments called chlorophylls to trap the sunlight in order to make glucose from the water and CO2 from the atmosphere

Food WebsFood webs are
simply overlapping food chains
Food webs are complex diagrams showing the relationships between many different organisms
![Page 6: Cellular Respiration & Photosynthesis. Background Information Producers: are able to convert the sun’s energy into glucose through a process called photosynthesis](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/5a4d1af37f8b9ab05997ffdf/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Energy Potential energy is stored energy that
could be used for work The chemical energy stored between
the bonds of atoms is a type of PE. All bonds (ATP, sugar, protein, lipid)
store energy
Kinetic energy is energy of motion, work being done
Kinetic energy that does not get work done is called thermal energy (heat)
When bonds are broken, some of the energy is released as heat
![Page 8: Cellular Respiration & Photosynthesis. Background Information Producers: are able to convert the sun’s energy into glucose through a process called photosynthesis](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/5a4d1af37f8b9ab05997ffdf/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
ATPATP is broken
down to release the energy between the high energy bonds of the phosphate groups
ATP ADP + Pi
ATP is required for cells to do their work and is made from food
ATP can be made from spare phosphate groups and ADP
ADP + Pi ATP
This process is called cellular respiration and occurs in the mitochondrion of eukaryotic cells
![Page 9: Cellular Respiration & Photosynthesis. Background Information Producers: are able to convert the sun’s energy into glucose through a process called photosynthesis](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/5a4d1af37f8b9ab05997ffdf/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
ATP ReviewATP is the
energy ‘currency’ of your cells
All foods entering the body convert the chemical energy stored between their bonds into the high energy bonds between the phosphate groups of ATP
The reason for this is that ATP is a very small molecule
This allows a large amount of energy to be used quickly and easily in the cell
ATP’s small size also allows it to travel quickly throughout the cell

Cellular RespirationResults in ATP
productionOccurs in the
mitochondrionThe
mitochondrion has an inner membrane AKA the cristae (the folds)
The center of the mitochondrion is called the matrix

1st Phase: GlycolysisThe 1st stage of
respiration Occurs in the
cytoplasmConverts a 6
Carbon glucose into two 3 Carbon pyruvates
Net gain of 2 ATPElectron carriers
also generated for later use (2 NADH)
Transition step to Kreb’s cycle: the two 3 Carbon pyruvates are converted into two 2 Carbon acetyl-coA molecules
Electrons are generated and transferred to 2 more NADH carriers
Carbon dioxide is released

2nd Phase: Kreb’s CycleOccurs in the
matrix of the mitochondrion
The 2 C acetyl-CoA enters the cycle and joins with a 4 C compound
Many different compounds are formed and broken down in the Kreb’s cycle (AKA citric acid cycle)
Each time, electrons are generated and transferred to electron carriers (6 NADH and 2 FADH2)
These electrons are needed for the ets where most of the ATP of respiration will be made
2 ATP are made

Final Phase: Electron Transport Chain (ets or etc)
Where the bulk of ATP is made in aerobic respiration
Electrons are passed from one protein to the next in the inner membrane (AKA cristae) electron transport chain
As they do, energy is released and used to pump H+ ions into intermembrane space
![Page 19: Cellular Respiration & Photosynthesis. Background Information Producers: are able to convert the sun’s energy into glucose through a process called photosynthesis](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/5a4d1af37f8b9ab05997ffdf/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Electron Transport ChainH+ ions are allowed to flow back into
the matrix through the protein channel of the ATP synthase enzyme
The energy of the falling H+ ions is used by the enzyme to make ATP
Oxygen is AKA the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain. Without it, the process stops and no more ATP can be made
![Page 20: Cellular Respiration & Photosynthesis. Background Information Producers: are able to convert the sun’s energy into glucose through a process called photosynthesis](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/5a4d1af37f8b9ab05997ffdf/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Electron Transport Chain32-34 ATP can be generated per
glucose molecule through this method
The electron carriers that have left their electrons at the electron transport chain can now return to any of the previous steps to get more electrons to bring back to the etc

Anaerobic Respiration AKA Fermentation
Is simply glycolysis
Occurs in cytoplasm (no mitochondrion required)
Prokaryotic organisms use this process
Eukaryotes may use this process when needed (not enough oxygen)
Creates byproducts: alcohol in yeast or lactic acid in muscle cells
These byproducts act as the final electron acceptor of electrons from the NADH molecules (in aerobic respiration, the FEA is oxygen)

PhotosynthesisGeneral Equation for photosynthesis:
CO2 + H20-chlorophyll
Glucose + O2
Notice that the products of photosynthesis are the reactants of aerobic respiration

ChloroplastThylakoids are
the individual chlorophyll containing structures
A granum is a stack of thylakoids
The stroma is the fluid surrounding the thylakoids

Photosynthesis
![Page 31: Cellular Respiration & Photosynthesis. Background Information Producers: are able to convert the sun’s energy into glucose through a process called photosynthesis](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/5a4d1af37f8b9ab05997ffdf/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
PhotosynthesisLight ReactionsTake place
across the membrane of the thylakoid
Two photosystems (PS I & II) capture sunlight to create ATP in ets and put electrons in electron carriers called NADPH
Dark ReactionsAKA the Calvin
cycleThis process of
‘carbon fixing’ takes place in the stroma of the choloroplast
1 turn of the Calvin cycle produces 1 G3P
2 G3P = 1 glucose molecule
![Page 32: Cellular Respiration & Photosynthesis. Background Information Producers: are able to convert the sun’s energy into glucose through a process called photosynthesis](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/5a4d1af37f8b9ab05997ffdf/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Light ReactionsChlorophyll in PS I
and II traps sunlight
The sunlight excites electrons which are transferred to NADPH electron carriers and taken to the ets
The ETS generates ATP necessary in the Calvin cycle to make G3P (2 G3P = glucose)
Both the ATP and NADPH enter the stroma to complete the Calvin cycle
Water splits to release electrons to replenish the supply at PS II
The electrons used in the ets go to PS I to replenish the electron supply there
![Page 33: Cellular Respiration & Photosynthesis. Background Information Producers: are able to convert the sun’s energy into glucose through a process called photosynthesis](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/5a4d1af37f8b9ab05997ffdf/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Dark ReactionsAt the end of the dark reactions, a
molecule known as G3P is made2 G3P joined together forms a
glucose molecule
We say that in this phase carbon is ‘fixed’
This means it is taken from a gas state (carbon dioxide) and converted into a solid state (glucose) which can be used by our bodies
![Page 34: Cellular Respiration & Photosynthesis. Background Information Producers: are able to convert the sun’s energy into glucose through a process called photosynthesis](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/5a4d1af37f8b9ab05997ffdf/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Photosynthesis SummaryIn the light reactions, electrons from
PS II are used in an etc to make ATP needed for the dark reactions.
Electron carriers called NADPH are filled at PS I to be used in the dark reactions
In the dark reactions (Calvin cycle), ATP and NADPH are used to take CO2 and make G3P
2 G3P = 1 glucoseWater and CO2 are used and O2 is
released during the process of photosynthesis

The Carbon CycleCarbon is cycled
throughout the environment in part through the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration
Carbon is stored in organic material, rocks (limestone), and in the atmosphere
