    Study Notes

    Bromothymol Blue (BTB)

    • BTB is a chemical indicator for carbon dioxide
    • Blue color indicates no CO2
    • Green color indicates some CO2
    • Yellow color indicates a lot of CO2

    Photosynthesis

    • Overall Reaction: Sunlight + CO2 + H2O → O2 + Glucose
    • Light-Dependent Reactions: Sunlight, ADP, NADP+, H2O → NADPH, ATP, O2
    • Light-Independent Reactions: NADPH, ATP, CO2 → NADP+, ADP, Glucose
    • Chloroplast Structure: Outer and inner membranes, thylakoid membranes, grana (stacks of thylakoids), stroma (space between grana)
    • Photosystem II: Absorbs sunlight, generates high-energy electrons
    • Photosystem I: Reactivates electrons from Photosystem II
    • Electron Transport Chain: Electrons move from Photosystem II to Photosystem I, releasing energy to pump hydrogen ions into inner thylakoid space.
    • ATP Synthase: Converts hydrogen ions into ATP.

    Plant Structure

    • Chloroplast arrangement: Spread out to maximize sunlight exposure
    • Cuticle and epidermis: Protect plant cells
    • Veins: Transport sugars
    • Stomata: Primary transport of CO2, O2, water vapor
    • Guard Cells: Regulate gas/molecule exchange (stomata opening and closing)

    Calorie Lab

    • Calorimeter: Measures heat exchange, minimizes energy loss
    • Burning food: Breaks chemical bonds, releases energy
    • Calories and water temperature: One calorie raises one gram of water by one degree Celsius.

    Cellular Respiration

    • Overall Reaction: Glucose + O2 → CO2 + H2O + ATP
    • Glycolysis: Occurs in the cytoplasm, Glucose → 2 pyruvic acid, 2 ATP, NAD+ → NADH, ADP (?)
    • Krebs Cycle: Occurs in mitochondria, Pyruvic acid → ATP, CO2, NADH, FADH2
    • Electron Transport Chain: Occurs in inner mitochondrial membrane, NADH, FADH2, O2 → ATP, H2O, FAD, NAD+
    • ATP Synthase: Converts hydrogen ions into ATP, ADP → ATP.
    • Advantages over fermentation: Higher ATP yield, neutral byproducts
    • Disadvantages of cellular respiration: Requires oxygen, slower process

    Fermentation

    • Occurs: Absence of oxygen
    • Purpose: Allows glycolysis to continue
    • Advantages: Continues energy production without oxygen
    • Disadvantages: Lower ATP yield, byproducts

    Connecting Cycles

    • Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are opposite processes
    • Plants and animals both do cellular respiration
    • Plants do photosynthesis
    • Reactions occur in reverse order

    Additional Information

    • Products of alcoholic fermentation: Ethyl alcohol, carbon dioxide
    • Lactic acid fermentation: Produces lactic acid, common in muscle cells
    • Uses of fermentation by microbes: Cheese, yogurt, buttermilk, sour cream, pickles, sauerkraut, kimchi, sourdough
