Ch. 10 Notes Photosynthesis significance: organic substances created Autotrophs have photosynthesis Chemosynthetic organisms are bacteria These organisms build their own organic compounds Know trophic system Summary equation: 6(H2O) + 6(CO2) -----> C6H12O6 Know if endergonic or exergonic Source of energy is light Light is electromagnetic: both matter and energy When light strike anything they release energy This means that the energy is less after Release heat Night vision uses heat If the part of the plant is green then it is involved in food producing. Bigger the leaf the more water is accessible More surface area meaning easier loss of water Cells forming skin of the leaf are clear This is why we can see the green Plants are at brutal war with getting light and water

Chemical Energy Type of potential energy stored in chemicals like gasoline or sugar. In regard to photosynthesis, light reactions solar energy is captured and transformed into chemical potential energy and in the Calvin Cycle, this energy is used to make organic molecules of food. Describe the structure of the chloroplast.

Ch 10: Photosynthesis The Process That Feeds the Biosphere Photosynthesis is the process that converts solar energy into chemical energy Directly or indirectly, photosynthesis nourishes almost the entire living world Autotrophs sustain themselves without eating anything derived from other organisms Autotrophs are the producers of the biosphere, producing organic molecules from CO2 and other inorganic molecules (fixing carbon) Almost all plants are photoautotrophs, using the energy of sunlight to make organic molecules Photosynthesis occurs in plants, algae, certain other protists, and some prokaryotes Heterotrophs obtain their organic material from other organisms Heterotrophs are the consumers of the biosphere

The Process That Feeds the Biosphere Photosynthesis: the conversion of light energy to chemical energy that is stored in glucose or other organic compounds (plants, algae, certain prokaryotes) Photosynthesis nourishes almost the entire living world directly & indirectly An organism acquires organic compounds it uses for energy & carbon skeletons by autotrophic or heterotrophic nutrition Autotroph: PRODUCER an organism that obtains organic food molecules w.o. eating other organisms or substances derived from other organisms (use energy from sun or oxidation of inorganic substances to make organic molecules from inorganic ones) Produce their organic molecules from CO2 & other inorganic raw materials obtained from environment ULTIMATE SOURCE OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS

Gavin Morgan 11/9/2015 Chapter 8 2-Point Notes Photosynthesis combines CO2 and H2O, producing glucose and O2: 1. Photosynthesis takes place in three stages: capturing energy from sunlight; using the energy to make ATP and to reduce the compound NADP+, an electron carrier, to NADPH; and using the ATP and NADPH to power the synthesis of organic molecules from CO2 in the air. 2. In plants, photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts: 1. The internal membrane of chloroplasts, called the thylakoid membrane, is a continuous phospholipid bilayer organized into flattened sacs that are found stacked on one another in columns called grana.
