Energy transfers

Starter:• Write a list of the

food you have eaten so far today.

• Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

Page 2: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

Where does all of the energy in your food originally come

from?

The Sun

Page 3: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

Learning outcomes

• State that the energy in food originated from the sun.

• Describe how energy is lost at every stage of a food chain.

• Explain why glucose made in photosynthesis is stored as starch

Key words

• Energy• Food chain• Respiration• Movement• Waste• Urea• Faeces

• Efficiency• Photosynthesis• Chlorophyll• Chloroplast• Chemical energy• Glucose• Starch

Page 5: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

All food chains begin with energy from the sun.

So you are (indirectly) solar powered!

Page 6: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

The sun is not usually included in food chains so the previous diagram becomes:

Food chains

Page 7: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

Copy the diagram above and answer the following questions:

1. Which direction are the arrows pointing?

2. What is this showing about how energy is transferred in this food chain?

3. What are the arrows that split off from the food chain showing about the energy transfer at each stage?

Food chain questions

Page 8: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

Answers1. The arrows are pointing right.

2. This shows that energy is passed along the food chain.

3. The arrows that split off from the food chain show that energy is lost at every stage of the food chain.

Page 9: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

Why is energy lost at every stage of the food chain?

Page 10: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

All animals lose energy in:

1. Respiration (which includes movement and keeping warm in warm blooded animals)

2. Excretion of urea in urine and undigested food in faeces

energy used for growth (output)efficiency =

energy supplied (input)

100 – 60 – 34efficiency =

100

Q: What is the efficiency of farming cows for food?

= 6 / 100= 0.06= 6%

A:

Q: What is the efficiency of this plant?

A: 5% (of the light energy is converted into chemical energy in glucose)

5% of the light is converted into glucose

95% of the light is reflected.

Why are plant leaves only 5%

efficient?

Page 14: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

Q: Why are plant leaves only 5% efficient?

A: Approx. 95% of the energy hitting the plant is reflected.

The rest of the wasted energy in plants:–heats up leaves –is absorbed by non-photosynthetic

parts –is transmitted through leaves

How does the plant convert light energy to chemical energy?

Page 16: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

Q: How does the plant convert light

energy to chemical energy?

A: Through the process of

photosynthesis

Page 17: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

CO2 + H2O C6H12O6 + O26 66light

Carbon dioxide + Water Glucose + Oxygen

Can you balance it?

Page 18: Energy transfers Starter: Write a list of the food you have eaten so far today. Where does all of the energy in your food originally come from?

What does photosynthesis require?

Photosynthesis requires:

1. Carbon dioxide

2. Water

3. Sunlight

4. Chlorophyll contained in the chloroplasts of the plant cells.

Storing the chemical energy

• The glucose made in photosynthesis is used for growth, repair and respiration by the plant.

• Extra glucose is stored as starch.

• This is what we usually eat (e.g. potato, rice, wheat).

How does photosynthesis relate to respiration?

Respiration is the opposite to photosynthesis, releasing energy from glucose and oxygen:

Photosynthesis:

Carbon dioxide + Water Glucose + Oxygen

Respiration:

Glucose + Oxygen Carbon dioxide + Water
