Energy Relationships
1. Photosynthesis: Chloroplast: energy from
the sun convert inorganic compounds to
organic compounds.
2. Respiration: mitochondria: convert
energy from organic compounds to form
compounds more easily used by the cell
(ATP)
Biochemical pathways: a series of reactions
in which the product of one reaction is
consumed in the next reaction.
ex. photosynthesis
Autotrophs
vs.
• Make own food from
organic compounds
• Examples: green plants
and algae
Heterotrophs
• Cannot make their own
organic compounds
• Examples: bacteria and
humans
***all life depends on the sun***
autotrophs use CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water) to make
glucose giving off O2
heterotrophs use C6H12O6 (glucose) and O2 (oxygen) giving off
CO2 and H2O
materials are constantly recycling
energy not recycled; must be supplied constantly
Photosynthesis Worksheet (read and answer)
Chloroplasts
Photosynthesis is a process in which sunlight energy is used to make glucose. The site of
photosynthesis is in the chloroplast – a organelle found in the leaves of green plants. The
main functions of chloroplasts are to produce food (glucose) during photosynthesis, and to
store food energy. Chloroplasts contain the pigment, chlorophyll. Chlorophyll absorbs most
of the colors in the color spectrum, and reflects only green and yellow wavelengths of light.
This is why we see leaves as green or yellow – because these colors are reflected into our
eyes.
1. What is photosynthesis?
2. Where does photosynthesis occur?
3. What are chloroplasts and where are they found?
4. What are the two main functions of chloroplasts?
5. Why doe most leaves appear green?
6. What is the primary pigment found in the chloroplast?
Photosynthesis
Glucose is another name for sugar. The molecular formula for glucose in C6H12O6. Plants
make sugar by using the energy from sunlight to transform CO2 from the air with water
from the ground into glucose. This process, called photosynthesis, occurs in the
chloroplast of the plant cell. During this process, oxygen (O2) is created as a waste
product and is released into the air for us to breath. The formula for photosynthesis is:
CO2 + H2O + sunlight ---- C6H12O6 + O2
This formula says that carbon dioxide and water molecules are combined with the
energy from sunlight to produce sugar and oxygen. The reactants in photosynthesis
(what is used) are CO2, water and sun. The plant gets water from the ground through its
roots. The plant collects carbon dioxide from the air. Much of the carbon dioxide comes
from living organisms that exhale it, but some also comes from factory smokestacks and
car fumes.
7. What is the formula for photosynthesis?
8. What three things are used to make glucose in photosynthesis?
9. Where does the water come from?
10. Where does the water enter the plant?
11. What are some sources of CO2?
12. What type of energy does the plant use to convert CO2 and
H2O into sugar?
The products (what is made) are glucose and oxygen. The glucose produced is used
by the plant for energy and growth. We also use this glucose by eating plants. The
oxygen produced is released into the air for us to breath. Photosynthesis is essential
for all life on earth, because it provides food and oxygen.
13. What is produced in photosynthesis?
14. What is the glucose used for?
15. What is the oxygen used for?

The Absorption of Chlorophyll
A pigment is a substance that absorbs and reflects light of particular wavelengths.
For example, the yellow-green color of a leaf is due to a pigment in the leaf called
chlorophyll. When white light (which contains all of the colors of the spectrum)
shines on chlorophyll, the chlorophyll absorbs most of the red, orange, blue, and
violet and reflects most of the green and yellow. That is why you see a yellow-green
color. Think of a pigment as a sponge that soaks up all of the other colors of the
spectrum except the one you see.
A spectrophotometer is an instrument that is used to measure the amount of light
absorbed by a pigment. Below is a graph showing the percentage of light energy
reflected for the absorption spectrum for chlorophyll. The highest peaks represent
colors that chlorophyll absorbs the most. Therefore, they are the least visible.

Constructed Response Questions
The Control of Transpiration
Plants normally lose water from openings (stomates) in their leaves. The water loss typically occurs
during daylight hours when plants are exposed to the Sun. This water loss, known as transpiration, is
both beneficial and harmful to plants. Scientists believe wind and high temperatures increase the rate of
transpiration, but the size of each stomate opening can be regulated. Reducing the size of the openings
during drought conditions may help reduce the dehydration and wilting that would otherwise occur. A
leaf may lose more than its own weight in water each day. Transpiration also lowers the internal
temperature of the leaf as water evaporates. On hot days, temperatures in the leaves may be from 3° to
15°C cooler than the outside air. With stomates open, vital gases may be exchanged between the leaf
tissues and the outside environment. Researchers have also found many plants that use another
response when leaf temperatures rise. Special molecules known as heat shock proteins are produced
by plant cells and help to hold enzymes in their functional shapes.
Identify the specific leaf structures that regulate the opening and closing of stomates.
Identify two of the "vital gases" that are exchanged between leaf tissues and the outside
environment.
State one way transpiration is beneficial to plants.
