Photosynthesis

Process where the sun's energy is used to make carbohydrates from CO2 & H2O

Cuticle

Thin watertight strong protective wax

Epidermis

Cell layers controlling entrance and exit of gases and water

Mesophyll

Palisade spongy cells fill the leaf interior have chloroplast as green specks

Chloroplast

Outer inner membrane, thylakoids are stacked coins forming grana; stroma semi liquid substance with enzymes

Vascular bundle

Consist xylem conducts water from roots & phloem conduct food from leaves and green stems to other parts of plant

Light-dependent reaction-ATP and NADPH

Generated using enzyme catalyst in thylakoids membranes chloroplast in plants

Light-dependent reaction or Calving Benson Cycle

Carbohydrate glucose synthesized in chloroplast stroma from atmospheric CO2

Electromagnetic spectrum

Full range of photons in wavelength is measured in nm,cm and m

Short wavelength

Gamma rays from radioactive element, UV light from the Sun

Middle wavelengths

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet

long wavelength

Infrared, microwaves and radio waves

Photons

Packets of energy short wavelength

Ultraviolet light and gamma rays

Pigments

Molecules of capture light

Chlorophyll -green, xanthophyll-yellow, carotene -orange

Chlorophyll

Absorb wavelengths far ends visual spectrum reflect green wavelength. Greenhouses emit blue & red optimizing plant growth

Photosystem

Complex proteins within chlorophyll molecules are network like an antenna capturing photons

Photosystem 1 leads to formation of NADPH

Consist of chlorophyll molecules electron transport system form NADPH powering production of H atoms to build sugars and organic compounds

Photosystem 2 leads to formation of ATP

Consist of chlorophyll a & b capture energy photon reaction center gives excited electron primary electron acceptor; used produce ATP build sugar

ATP <ADP+P

Chemiosmosis

Production of ATP involving photosystem, electron transport system special protein channel, ATP synthase

C3 photosynthesis

ATP & NADPH incorporate CO2 from air Rubisco starting material glucose during process of carbon fixation; carried by most plants in mesophyll cells

1st enzyme of the Calvin cycle

Stomata

Opening epidermis of leaves, formed guard cells, water vapor and o2 to pass out co2 passes in

Photorespiration

Hot weather, plants close stomata to conserve water o2 builds up in the leaves, enzyme Rubisco binds O2 instead of co2

C4 photosynthesis

Carried by plants, higher temperatures; oxalacetate, 4- carbon molecules produced, transferred inner bundle sheath cells breaks down co2 enters calvin-benson cycle

CAM photosynthesis

Succulents pineapples, agave, orchids ferns and cone bearers. Open stomata at night when cooler closed during daytime when hot. Fix CO2 into organic acids stored in vacuoles

Phytoplankton

Photosynthetic algae and bacteria oceans carry much photosynthesis then cell respiration

Autotrophs are producers

Make own food photosynthesis include green bacteria, algae, and plant

Heterotrophs or consumers

Depends on others

Carnivores omnivores detrivore and parasite

Cellular respiration

Organisms acquire energy break down food by eating plants or other animals

Oxidation

Loss of electrons

Reduction

Gain of electrons

Cell respiration has two stages

Glycolysis occurs in cytoplasm, oxidation in the mitochondria

Anabolism

Building molecules or synthesis reactions

Catabolism

Breaking down molecules or degradation reactions

Catalyst

Proteins accelerate forward and backward reactions lowers activation energy. Not all enzymes are proteins

Free energy

Energy available work in any system

Enthalpy

Energy contained in molecules chemical bonds

Activation energy

Energy needed to destabilize chemical bond initiate chemical reaction

Biochemical pathways

Enzymatic reactions occurring sequence where product of one reaction becomes substrate of another

Enzyme inhibition

Occurs when active enzyme prevented from combining with its substrate

Feedback inhibition

When product is in abundance he competes with substrate for the enzyme's active site

Competitive inhibitor

Interferes with active site of enzyme the substrate cannot bind

Allosteric inhibitor

Shape of enzyme by binding to location other than active site so enzyme can't bond to substrate

Endergonic reaction

Requires input of energy

Exergonic reaction

Excess free energy released as heat

Mitochondria

Consist of outer and inner membrane with intermembrane space, cristae, DNA, ribosomes and enzymes of cell respiration

Glycolysis

Glucose broken down into 2 3-C pyruvate molecules forming ATP. Yields 2 ATP & 2 NADPH

Krebs Cycle

Acetyl coenzyme A enters chemical reactions producing 1; energy harvested electrons transferred NADPH and FAD. 2 turns for every molecules of glucose that's oxidized

Electron transport chain

Molecules of NADPH and FADH2 carry electrons to inner mitochondrial membrane drive proton pumps that pump H

ATC yields 10 NADH, - fadh2 in 30 480p total ATP and one glucose is 38

Chemiosmosis

Facilitated diffusion out of mitochondria into cell cytoplasm and channel synthesizes ATP from ADP and P

ATP synthase

Special channel protons induced to the mitochondrial matrix by diffusion of a concentration gradient

Fermentation

Organic molecule accepts the electrons is ethanol or lactic acid

Ethanol fermentation

Please remove co2 from pyruvate through decarboxylation producing 2-C molecules of acetaldehyde

CO2 makes dough rise

Lactic acid fermentation

Circulating blood moves lactate for muscles used as fuel for muscle contraction there's muscle soreness due to acidosis

Deamination

Removal of amino groups from protein converting the rest of the molecules the enter the Krebs cycle is a product of protein metabolism

Beta oxidation

Fats broken down by enzymes in to glycerol and fatty acids

Uses of ATP

Make sugar, supplying activation energy for reaction chemicals, after transport of substances across membranes, movement through environment and growth

Carbon monoxide

Incomplete burning of fossil fuels wood burns more strongly than told to to hemoglobin in the RBC, hence RBCs can not transport out of adequate O2 production shuts down

Chromium

Has influence on activity of insulin allowing body to use carbohydrates and fats more efficiently, hence given type 2 diabetes

Sugar reducers

Cystic fibrosis

Defect in the CFTR gene codes for a protein responsible for movement of chloride ions across membranes of cells to produce mucus hence an improper water salt balance

Lung infection
