ATP
Cells transfer energy from food to a molecule called ATP
Adenosine triphosphate contains:
-adenine (a nitrogen base)
-sugar
- 3 phosphate groups
When a reaction needs energy, a phosphate breaks off ATP,
releasing energy and becoming ADP (adenosine diphosphate)
VIDEO CLIP-GENERAL OVERVIEW
PHOTOSYNTHESIS
Autotrophs (plants and algae and some
bacteria) use energy in sunlight to convert
carbon dioxide and water into glucose and
oxygen.
6CO2 + 6H2O ----light---------> C6H12O6 + 6O2
PHOTOSYNTHESIS VIDEO

Plants absorb red and blue light and reflect
green due to the chlorophyll in their
chloroplasts.
Chlorophyll pigment can capture light energy.
This light energy is converted into chemical
energy in the bonds of glucose. Oxygen is
released when water is split.
The light-dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid and
the Calvin Cycle or light-independent reactions occur
in the stroma of the chloroplast.
What are the reactants and products of photosynthesis?
Where does photosynthesis take place?
How is energy transferred in photosynthesis?
CELLULAR RESPIRATION
6O2 + C6H12O6 ----à 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy
All organisms release energy from organic molecules through
cellular respiration.
The first stage of cellular respiration is called glycolysis ,which
happens in the cytoplasm of the cell and does not require
oxygen. Every living thing uses glycolysis to break down
glucose into smaller molecules.
If no oxygen is available, these smaller molecules from
glycolysis go through fermentation to create either
ethyl alcohol (via yeast or microorganisms) or lactic
acid(in many cell types).
If oxygen is available, these smaller molecules from
glycolysis go through oxidative respiration in the
mitochondrian.
Oxidative Respiration involves the Krebs cycle and the
electron transport chain to release carbon dioxide,
water and 36
ATP molecules.
