Study Notes

Plant and Animal Requirements

  • Plants require sunlight, carbon dioxide (CO²), and water for survival and growth.
  • Animals need oxygen, food, and water to survive.

Chemical Formulas

  • Oxygen is represented as O².
  • Glucose, the primary energy source, has the formula C⁶H¹²O⁶.
  • Carbon dioxide is denoted as CO².
  • Water's chemical formula is H²O.

Photosynthesis

  • The reactants in the photosynthesis process are carbon dioxide (CO²) and water (H₂O).
  • The equation for photosynthesis is: 6CO² + 6H²O → 6O² + C⁶H¹²O₆, indicating that six molecules of carbon dioxide and six molecules of water produce six molecules of oxygen and one molecule of glucose.

Cellular Respiration

  • Cellular respiration primarily occurs in the mitochondria and cytoplasm of cells.
  • In the cytoplasm, pyruvic acid is generated during glycolysis.

Types of Respiration

  • Anaerobic respiration, which does not require oxygen, occurs in the cytoplasm.
  • Aerobic respiration, requiring oxygen, takes place in the mitochondria.

Cellular Respiration Equation

  • The overall chemical reaction for cellular respiration can be summarized as: C⁶H¹²O⁶ → CO² + H²O + ATP, indicating that glucose is broken down into carbon dioxide, water, and energy (ATP).
