Definition of Energy
2 Laws of Energy:
1.Conservation of Energy- energy is neither created nor
destroyed, only transformed(1st law)
*forms of energy: solar, potential, mechanical
2.Entropy- during the transformation of energy, some
energy become disordered & becomes heat(2nd law)
*heat: “disordered energy”
Coupled Reactions and Chemical Bonds
*”coupled”: with partner
*coupled reactions= redox reactions
1.Reduction- gains electrons
-creates chemical bond
-stores energy in molecule
-Photosynthesis(anabolic)
2.Oxidation-loses electrons
-breaks chemical bonds
-releases energy
-Respiration
*electron must go to or come from somewhere
*no energy=dead(kaya malamig ung bangkay)
Life processes are driven by energy
Plants are dynamic metabolic systems.
*1000 reactions/sec
Processes can be:
-energy consuming (endergonic) or
-energy releasing (exergonic) and
-catabolic (breakdown) or
-anabolic (synthesis)
*endergonic: energy must be supplied
*exergonic: energy must be released
The most common and important forms of cellular energy:
1.Chemical bonds (e.g. ATP and CH2O)
2.Electrons (redox reactions)
3.Electrochemical gradients
*”gradients”:difference of something
*A–P~P~P
A–P~P+P
Source of energy: Sun
*can’t recycle energy because of 2nd law
*energy flow: one direction only
* only matters and/or chemicals can be recycled
PHOTSYNTHESIS AND RESPIRATION
~PIC1
Overview: The process that Feeds the Biosphere
Photosynthesis-process that converts solar energy to chemical
Energy
-occurs in plants, algae, certain other protists
and some prokaryotes
*no photosyntehsis, we won’t have food
*cyanobacteria (dati tawag sa kanila blue green algae meron
din sabi bacteria so nagging cyanobacteria)
Plants and other autotrophs – producers of the biosphere
Plants are photoautotrophs
-they use the energy of sunlight to make organic molecules
from water and carbon dioxide
Heterotrophs-obtain their organic material from other
Organisms
-are the consumers of the biosphere
*herbivores, carnivores, omnivores (consumers)
Concept 1: Photosynthesis converts light energy to the
chemical energy of food
*Photosynthesis: CO2 + H2O  GLUCOSE, SUGAR + O2
The leaves of plants-major sites of photosynthesis
*some stems (herbaceous plants) and roots: site of
photosynthesis
Stomata
~PIC2&3
Chloroplasts-organelles in which photosynthesis occurs
-contain thylakoids and grana
*parasitic plants: not photosynthetic
Photosynthesis is summarized as:
6 CO2 + 12 H2O + LIGHT ENERGY  C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O
Photosynthesis- generally a reduction process (may oxidized:
water and reduced:CO2)
Chloroplasts split water into
 Hydrogen and oxygen, incorporating the electrons of
hydrogen into sugar molecules
Photosynthesis is a redox process
-Water is oxidized, carbon dioxide is reduced
Photosynthesis consists of two processes
-the light reactions (light dependent reaction)
-the Calvin cycle (light independent reaction)(or Melvin
cycle)
~PIC4
~PIC6
Concept 2: The light reactions convert solar energy to the
chemical energy of ATP and NADPH
ATP Produced in 3 ways
1.Photophosphorylation-source of energy is sunlight
-involving light and ATP
2.Substrate level phosphorylation-bigger chemicals can be
split (ex. Glucose)
3.Oxidative phosphorylation-goping through different
gradientbreakdown of molecule to ATP
NADPH:
NADP + H + e

NADPH
(in thylakoid and grana) (pag NADPH na, punta sa Stroma)
*NADPH:vehicle lang
Light-form of electromagnetic energy, which travels in
Waves
Wavelength-distance between the crests of waves
-determine the type of electromagnetic energy
Electromagnetic Spectrum-the entire range of
electromagnetic energy or radiation
*UV: more energy
*shorter wavelength: more energy
*longer wavelength: less energy
*Impt in photoshynthesis: visible light(ROYGBIV)
*light: absorbed or reflected
*what you see: reflected light
*Absorbed: all except what you see
*White: reflected all colors, absorbed black
*black: absorbed all colors, reflected none
Pigments- substances that absorb visible light
-light deceptors
- reflect light, which include the colors we see
*melanin:pigment in people, the more the darker skin
*blue/red: maximum absorption of plants
*chlorophyll A: mas bida
*pag tinamaan ng light, absorb ng pigment esp. electron
The absorption of spectra of three types of pigments in
chloroplasts
*the different experiments helped reveal which
wavelengths of light are photosynthetically important
*Result: ~PIC5
Chlorophyll A-main photosynthetic pigment
Chlorophyll B- accessory pigment
Other Accessory Pigments-absorb different wavelengths of
light and pass the energy to chlorophyll A’
When a pigment absorbs light
-it goes from a ground state to an excited state, which is
Unstable
*pag excited yung electron, may energy absorbed
*Fluorescence: with small amount of light
*excited state must release energy
Photosystem- a reaction center associated with lightharvesting complexes
-comnposed of a reaction center
surrounded by a number of lightharvesting complexes
-When a reaction-center chlorophyll molecule absorbs
energy, one of its electrons gets bumped up to a
primary electron acceptor
-The light-harvesting complexes
-consist of pigment molecules bound to particular
Proteins
-funnel the energy of photons of light to the
reaction center
~PIC7
Noncyclic electron flow- primary patrhway of energy
transformation in the light reactions
-produces NADPH, ATP, O2
*pigment Molecules: magkukulang ng isang electron
*pag kulang ng 1 electron, parang adik
*most convenient source of e: water
Water splits(through photolysis: breakdown using light)
into electron(to regain lost e) Oxygen(ung hinihinga
natin) and Hydrogen(for the reduction of ATP)
*water breaks down in the presence of light
*splitting of water: only in the presence of chlorophyll
and light

Under certain conditions, photoexcited electrons take
an alternative path.
Cyclic electron flow- only photosystem I is used
-only ATP is produced
*electron will return to it original source
*in some bacteria, only product: ATP
~PIC9
Concept 3: the calvin cycle uses ATP and NADPH to
convert CO2 to sugar
Calvin Cycle- similar to the citric acid cycle
-Occurs in stroma
*mas matipid(cycle in stroma: stroma reactions)
*Melvin Calvin used paper chromatography and isotopes
The Calvin cycle has three phases
-Carbon Fixation: CO2 is fixed to an acceptor(RuBP)
*RuBP: 5 carbon sugar
* RuBP + CO2(from air)
-Reduction
-Regeneration of the CO2 acceptor

*C3 Photosynthesis: kc C3 first product
*all plants have C3 Photosynthesis
Concept 4: Atlernative mechanisms of carbon fixation have
evolved in hot, arid climates
*stomata open during day to allow gasses to enter but
water evaporates
On hot, dry days, plants close their stomata
-conserving water but limiting access to CO2
-causing oxygen to build up
*photorespiration: result of building up of oxygen
Photorespiration – O2 substitutes for CO2 in the active site
of enzyme rubisco
-photosynthetic rate is reduced
Rubisco- enzymes responsible for
RuBP + CO2  Carbon
*minsan nagkakamali ung rubisco so…
RuBP + O2  photorespiration
*masisira RuBP, will not continue Calvin cycle
*disadvantage to plants so plants have ways to adapt
Calvin Cycle:
RuBP + CO2  3GP + 3GP (glucose)
*RuBP = C5
Adaptations
1.C4 plants- minimize the cost of photorespiration by
incorporating CO2 into four Carbon compounds in
mesophyll cells
*“C4” kasi initial product 4 C
*These four carbon compounds are exported to bundle
sheath cells, where they release CO2, used in Calvin Cycle
~PIC11
2.CAM Plants- open their stomata at night,
incorporating CO2 into organic acids
-“Crassulean Acid Metabolism”
-looks like cactus
-in hot areas
-During the day, the stomata closes and the CO2 is
released from organic acids for use in the Calvin
Cycle
*The CAM pathway is similar to C4 pathway
~PIC12
*all with Calvin Cycle, some CAM, some C4
*Carbon Dioxide- during day lang nagagamit kasi with
sunlight for light reaction
*No photosynthesis, no body of plants, no food/rice
for us
Organic compounds produced by photosynthesis
-provide the energy and building material for
ecosystems

Cellular Respiration
Harvesting chemical energy
 So we see how energy enters food chains(via autotrophs)
we can look at how organisms use that energy to fuel
their bodies
 Plants and animals both use products of
photosynthesis(glucose) for metabolic fuel
 Heterotrophs: must take in energy from outside sources,
cannot make their own e.g. animals
 When we take in glucose (or other carbs) proteins, and
fats-these foods don’t come to us the way our cells can
use them
Cellular Respiration overview
 Transformation of chemical energy in food into chemical
energy cells can use:ATP
 These reactions proceed the same way in plants and
animals. Process is called cellular respiration
 Overall reaction: C6H12O6 + 6 O2  6 CO2 + 6 H2O
Cellular Respiration- chemical-bond energy in sugars is
converted to energy-rich compound ATP which can then be
used for metabolic reactions
*break down of glucose
*oxidation
*lose electron, break bonds, release energyATP
*Supposedly.. C6H12O6 + 6 O2  6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ATP
* C6H12O6 + 6 O2  6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ATP (photosynthesis)
*Photosynthesis is not the opposite of respiration
*they only use each other’s products
Stages of respiration:
1.Glycolysis
-in cytoplasm
-carbohydrates
-breakdown
*if O2 Absent, hanggang ditto nalang)(Anaerobic)
*If O2 present…(Aerobic)
2. Krebs
3.ATC(Electron transport Chain)
 Breakdown of glucose begins in the cytoplasm: the liquid
matrix inside the cell
 At this point life diverges into two forms and two
pathways
-Anaerobic cellular respiration (aka fermentation)
-Aerobic cellular respiration
Cellular respiration reactions
 Glycolysis
-series of reactions which break the 6-carbon glucose
molecule down into 3-carbonm molecules called
pyruvate
-process is an ancient one-all organisms from simple
bacteria to humans perform it the same way
-yields 2 ATP molecules for every one glucose
molecule broken down
-yields 2 NADH per glucose molecule
Aerobic Cellular reaction
 Oxygen-required=aerobic
 2 more sets of reactions which occur in a specialized
structure within the cell called the mitochondria
-1.krebs cycle
-2.Electron Transport chain
~PIC13 and 14
Kreb’s cycle
 Completes the breakdown of glucose
-takes the pyruvate (3-carbons) and breaks it down
the carbon and oxygen atoms end up in CO2 and H2O
-hydrogens and electrons are stripped and loaded
onto NAD+ and FAD to produce NADH and FADH2
 Production of only 2 more ATP but loads up the
coenzymes with H+ and electrons which move to the
3rd stage
*NADP + H + C  NADPH*NAD + H + C  NADH (respiration)
*FAD + 2 h + 2 c  FADH2 (respiration)
Electron Transport Chain
 Electron carriers loaded with electrons and
protons from the Kreb’s cycle move to this
chain-like a series of steps(staircase)
 As electrons drop down stairs, energy
released to form a total of 32 ATP
 Oxygen waits at bottom of staircase, picks up
electrons and protons and in doing so
becomes water
Energy tally
 36 ATP for aerobic vs. ATP for anaerobic
-Glycolysis
2 ATP
-Kreb’s
2 ATP
-ETC
32 ATP
 Anaerobic organisms can’t be too energetic
but are important for global recycling of
carbon
~PIC15
*1 glucose= 36 ATP
*each cell needs thousands of ATP
Anaerobic cellular respiration
 Some organisms thrice in environments with little or no
oxygen
-marches, bogs, gut of animals, sewage treatment ponds
 No oxygen used=”an”aerobic
 Results in no more ATP, final steps in these pathways
serve only to regenerate NAD+ so it can return to pick up
more electrons and hydrogens in glycolysis
 End products such as ethanol and CO2 (single cell
fungi(yeast) in beer/bread) or lactic acid(muscle cells)
*Ethanol:small amount of ATP9only 21 so yeast will die)
-15% yeast will die(kaya sealed wine)
*fermentation product=yeast
*happens in yeast and cheese
*in animals, will feel cramps (due to presence or building up
of lactic acid)(focus of oxygen brain nalang)
*need CO2:photosyntehsis
*need O2: cellular respiration
*leaves: photosynthesis and respiration
*roots: mainly respiration only
*woody trees(stem):respiration
*non-photosynthetic parts:respiration
*hole in the bark:lenticel(entry of gasses)
*O2:most important for respiration
