Chapter 6 - Photosynthesis


" Welcome to the Dark Side of Photosynthesis "




Photosynthesis - p. 104 - Using the energy from the sun to make glucose (starch)

LIGHT + 6 CO2 + 12 H2O ----> C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O - p. 107 + 109

Chloroplast - p. 79 + 106

          Chlorophyll - p. 106 - main energy (sunlight) absorber

Light Reactions - p. 109 + 110 - Making ATP

          Chemiosmosis - p. 110 + 111 - Using (solar) energy to recycle and combine ADP and P to make ATP

Dark Reactions - p. 112 - Making sugar and storing it as starch




Chapter 7 - Cellular Respiration


" We breathe in oxygen 24 hours a day for this ?? "




Cellular Respiration - p. 118 + 119 - Using macromolecules to produce energy packets called ATP

C6H12O6 + 6 O2 + 6 H2O -----> 12 H2O + 6 CO2 + 36 ATP + HEAT - p. 118

Mitochondria - p. 78 + 119

Glycolysis - p. 119 + 120 - Make energy carriers

Krebs Cycle - p. 119 + 122 - Make energy carriers

Electron Transport Chain - p. 119 + 124 + 125 - Use energy carriers to make a total of 36 ATP's

          Chemiosmosis - p. 124 + 125 - Using (food) energy to recycle and combine ADP and P to make ATP

          Metabolic Water - p. 124 - Water that is made at the end of the electron transport chain.

Anaerobic Respiration / Fermentation - p. 127
