Study Notes
Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration
- Light-independent reactions of photosynthesis create sugars.
- Oxygen is the final electron acceptor in cellular respiration's electron transport system.
- Muscle cells contain more ATP due to higher energy demands for motion compared to bone cells.
Cell Structures and Functions
- Cell walls, consisting mostly of cellulose, differ from cell membranes, which form the outer layer of animal cells.
- The cell membrane acts like a security guard, regulating entry and exit of substances in and out of the cell.
- Support is provided by certain cell structures in plants.
Energy Production and Usage
- Both aerobic and anaerobic respiration use pyruvic acid during their processes.
- ATP supplies energy by breaking off a phosphate group from its molecule, converting ATP to ADP and releasing energy.
- ADP combines with inorganic phosphate (P) and energy to reform ATP.
Cellular Components and Processes
- Chloroplasts in algae and plants are the sites of photosynthesis.
- In chloroplasts, glucose is formed at a specific location within their complex internal structure.
- All cellular activities in living organisms rely on ATP as the primary energy source.
Experimental Observations
- In an experiment to measure ATP production in plants, leaf circles float when the rate of ATP production exceeds usage levels, releasing oxygen.
- The specific moment light is removed affects the overall rate of photosynthesis, indicated in the experimental data graph.
