Describe Photosynthesis
• The process of changing light energy to chemical energy
• Energy stored as sugar
• Occurs in plants and some algae
• Plants need light energy, CO2, and H2O
• Takes place in the chloroplasts, using chlorophyll, the green pigment in plants

but must followfollow the light reaction
TRIVIA: This used to be called the dark reaction. Why is not used today?

What happens during photosynthesis?
• Plants capture light energy and use that energy to make glucose
• Sunlight provides the energy needed by chlorophyll to change molecules of carbon dioxide and water into glucose
• Oxygen is also released in this reaction
![Page 8: Photosynthesis & Respiration. What is Photosynthesis? The process of photosynthesis is a chemical reaction. It is the most important chemical reaction](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d705503460f94a51f4b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Light Reaction
1.1. Chlorophyll is energized Chlorophyll is energized by sunlight
2. The energy splitssplits a waterwater molecule
3. A. The oxygenoxygen is released
B. EnergyEnergy is stored by hydrogen(NADPH)
and ATP

The Light-Independent Reaction
1. Carbon dioxide combines with RuBP to form PGA
2. PGA is converted to PGAL (G3P)
3. PGAL (G3P) can be:a. used as a nutrient for the plant
b. converted back to RuBP (recycled)
c. converted to GLUCOSEGLUCOSE

Who first figured out this process?
Melvin CalvinMelvin Calvin
Because of his work, the light independent reaction is known more commonly as the “CALVIN CYCLECALVIN CYCLE”
It is also known as “carbon fixationcarbon fixation” because carbon is converted to a usable and organic molecule.

Melvin Calvin1911 – 1997
Nobel Laureate

Calvin worked with Benson so
the cycle is also calledthe Calvin – Benson cycle

What happens during photosynthesis?
• Carbon dioxide enters the leaf through holes called stomata
• CO2 combines with the stored energy in the chloroplasts through a chemical reaction to make glucose
• The sugar is moved through tubes in the leaf to the roots, stems and fruits of the plants
• Some of the sugar is used right away by the plant for energy; some is stored as starch; and some is built into plant tissue (example: cellulose)
![Page 14: Photosynthesis & Respiration. What is Photosynthesis? The process of photosynthesis is a chemical reaction. It is the most important chemical reaction](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d705503460f94a51f4b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Why is this important to us?
1. Because we cannot make our own food
(glucose, energy),
we must get our food from plants.
Plants are the first step in the food chain.
![Page 15: Photosynthesis & Respiration. What is Photosynthesis? The process of photosynthesis is a chemical reaction. It is the most important chemical reaction](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d705503460f94a51f4b/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Why is this important to us?
2. The oxygen released during photosynthesis is necessary for all living things.
Why do we need oxygen?
For energy . . .We “burn up” our food. (OXIDATION REACTION)

Chemosynthesis
• Bacterial process

• Occurs in such places as bottom of the ocean around vents
![Page 18: Photosynthesis & Respiration. What is Photosynthesis? The process of photosynthesis is a chemical reaction. It is the most important chemical reaction](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d705503460f94a51f4b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
What is Cellular Respiration?
Once the energy that was in sunlight is changed into chemical energy by photosynthesis, an organism has to transform the chemical energy into a form that can be used by the organism.
This process is cellular respiration.

What two processes make up cellular respiration?
• The anaerobic phaseanaerobic phase
takes place first in the cytoplasm
• The aerobic phaseaerobic phase
follows the anaerobic phase and takes place in the mitochondriamitochondria
![Page 23: Photosynthesis & Respiration. What is Photosynthesis? The process of photosynthesis is a chemical reaction. It is the most important chemical reaction](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d705503460f94a51f4b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The Anaerobic Phase
• First step occurs in the cytoplasm
• Glucose breaks down into pyruvate
(two 3 carbon sugars)
• This is called “GLYCOLYSIS”
• 2 ATPs produced (net gain)
![Page 24: Photosynthesis & Respiration. What is Photosynthesis? The process of photosynthesis is a chemical reaction. It is the most important chemical reaction](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649d705503460f94a51f4b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The Aerobic Phase
• Pyruvate enters the mitochondria
• Includes a series of reactions called the Krebs cycle
• Another part of this process is the “electron transport chain” - a series of reactions that end with oxygen
• 34 ATPs produced

• Two types:– Alcoholic fermentation:
• Yeast - 2 ATPs
• C6H12O6 -> CO2 + ethyl alcohol + energy(2ATPs)
• Lactic Acid fermentation
bacteria and muscle cells (without O2) - 2 ATPs
C6H12O6 -> lactic acid + energy (2 ATPs)
