GRADE 8 SCIENCE TOPIC 1.8 CELLULAR RESPIRATION Ms. Sheila F. Padilla HOW DOES YOUR BODY OBTAIN ENERGY? When food passes through digestive These molecules travel through the Inside the cells, the energy in the system. The food is then broken down bloodstream to the cells of your body. molecules is released. into small molecules. EXPLORE WHAT IS CELLULAR RESPIRATION? It is a complex process by which cells convert the chemical energy stored in organic molecules, such as glucose, into a form that cells can use, known as Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), the primary energy currency of the cell.

React using the thumbs-up emoji 👍 if the statement is correct and react a thumbs-down emoji 👎 if the statement is incorrect. The main source of ATP production occurs in the cytoplasm of cells. inner membrane of mitochondria TYPES OF CELLULAR RESPIRATION Aerobic Respiration Anaerobic Respiration What is aerobic Mitochondrion respiration? Oxygen is used to break down respiratory substrates. The main respiratory substrate is glucose which is oxidized to release its energy. Aerobic Respiration Equation Glucose + Oxygen Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy released Anaerobic Respiration This happens when there is no oxygen. It is a less efficient process that only produces a small amount of ATP. It produces lactic acid or alcohol as waste. Most organisms require oxygen to respire and live, however some organisms can continue to respire when oxygen runs out. Humans can do this for a short time, resulting in lactic acid building up in our muscles. Anaerobic Respiration Equations In muscles In yeast Glucose Lactic acid + Energy Glucose Ethanol + Carbon Dioxide + Energy COMMON DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AEROBIC AND ANAEROBIC Aerobic Respiration Anaerobic Respiration performed by eukaryotic cells performed by prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells goes from cytoplasm to mitochondria only in cytoplasm requires oxygen does not require oxygen efficient (38 ATP) inefficient (2 ATP) reactants: glucose and oxygen reactants: glucose product: CO2 and H2O product: lactic acid (animals) ethanol and CO2 (yeast) Is it a FACT or a BLUFF?

How can they provide What do they eat? How do they obtain energy to other energy? organisms? PHOTOSYNTHESIS PHOTOSYNTHESIS the process that converts solar energy into chemical energy that is used by biological systems occurs in plants and some algae 3 major events: 1. Sunlight is converted into chemical energy 2. Water (H2O) is split into oxygen (O2) 3. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is fixed into sugars (C6H12O6) LEAF STRUCTURE Photosynthesis happens in the chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are full of round flattened discs called thylakoids. A stack of thylakoids is called a granum. Chlorophyll green pigment that harvests light for Chloroplast photosynthesis Stroma is the space inside chloroplasts. PROCESS OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS The plant draws up water through its roots. The leaves take in carbon dioxide from the air. The leaves trap energy from sunlight. The plant uses energy of sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into sugars and oxygen. The plant releases oxygen into the air. The plant uses the sugars for growth. Is it a FACT or a BLUFF?

Plants use energy of sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into sugars and oxygen.

Answer: Anaerobic Respiration A QUICK REVIEW: PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND CELLULAR RESPIRATION A QUICK REVIEW: PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND CELLULAR RESPIRATION ELABORATE: SDG 3: GOOD HEALTH AND WELL-BEING Why is cellular respiration important for living organisms? Cellular respiration completes the circle of life. It provides the energy that sustains life, regulates atmospheric gases, supports food webs, and cycles nutrients. ELABORATE: SDG 13 CLIMATE ACTION How can we promote photosynthesis in urban areas with limited green spaces? LESSON SYNTHESIS Today, you learned that… 1. Cellular respiration is the process which cells take the energy from glucose to function; 2. Cellular respiration includes three main processes — glycolysis, Krebs cycle and electron transport chain; 3. There are two types of respiration: aerobic respiration that takes place in the presence of oxygen, and anaerobic respiration that takes place in the absence of oxygen; and 4. Cellular respiration increases as you increase your exercise intensity. LESSON SYNTHESIS Today, you learned that… 1. Photosynthesis is a process by which living plant cells combine CO2 and H2O, in the presence of chlorophyll and light energy.; 2. The equation for photosynthesis is: 6 CO2+12 H2O + sunlight → C6H12O6 + 6 H2O + 6 O2 3. Photosynthesis in plants happens in the chloroplasts.; and 4. Photosynthesis is important, not only for plants to manufacture food, but also for other living things and the environment.
