Energy in Living Systems
All organisms need energy to survive The sun is the first and largest source of
energy Autotrophs
• Photsynthesizing organisms gather their OWN energy from the sun.
Heterotrophs• Organisms that gather energy from other organisms

Flow of Energy

Metabolism
Metabolism• Set of all chemical reactions that occur in the body
• Chemical Reactions
• Processes that result in the changing of substances
• For example the breaking of a water molecule into a hydrogen and hydroxide ion is a chemical reaction
• H2O H+ + OH-
• Most of the energy that drives metabolism is supplied by adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

ATP – Adenosine Triphosphate
Energy currency - “Energy Money” in the cell In cells
• Some of the chemical energy stored in food molecules is released as heat.
• The remaining energy is stored temporarily as Adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
• Like money, ATP is portable form of energy.
• ATP flows from chemical reaction to chemical reaction delivering energy wherever the cell needs it

How does ATP deliver energy? Adenosine TRI(3)phosphate (ATP) has a 3 phosphate tail which is
very unstable During a chemical reaction ATP will give up one of it’s phosphates and
as a result energy is delivered. Adenosine TRIphosphate (3 phosphate) then turns into Adenosine DIphosphate (2 phospates).
Without ATP’s energy delivery the body’s chemical reactions would occur so slowly that the body could not survive.

Photosynthesis – Sun Energy
The process that provides energy for almost all life Steps
• Energy is captured from the sunlight
• Light energy is converted to chemical energy which is temporarily stored in ATP and NADPH
• NADPH is “energy money” that delivers energy much like ATP.
• The chemical energy stored in ATP and NADPH powers the formation of organic compounds, using carbon dioxide

1st Step – Absorption of Light Energy
Plant cells have chloroplasts (chloro = green, plast = living material)
Chloroplasts contain stacks of thylakoids whose membranes contain light absorbing pigments.
![Page 9: Cellular Energy Photosynthesis. Energy in Living Systems All organisms need energy to survive The sun is the first and largest source of energy Autotrophs.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062309/5697c02c1a28abf838cd94bf/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Chlorophyll Chlorophyll (chloro =
green, -phyll = leaf) is the primary pigment.• Chlorophyll absorbs the
wavelengths for blue and red light while reflects the wavelengths for green and yellow light.
• This is why leaves look green.
Chlorophyll pigments in the thylakoid membranes capture the energy from the sun

2nd Step – Conversion of Light Energy Electron Transport Chain
• The electron transport chain is what is sounds like• This is a transport system that consists of pigments in the
thylakoid membranes whose purpose is to temporarily store energy in the form of ATP and NADPH
• This energy is crucial to the 3rd step of photosynthesis

3rd Step – Storage of Energy
1st Step – Needs Light• Capture energy from the sun
2nd Step – Needs Light• Temporarily store energy as ATP and NADPH
3rd Step- No Light Required• Use ATP and NADPH to create organic
molecules the cell can use or store as energy

3rd Step – Calvin Cycle
Calvin Cycle• Most common method
of Carbon fixation• Carbon Dioxide
Fixation• Using Carbon
Dioxide to make organic compounds
• The organic compounds are required for the plant cell’s survival

Wrap-Up The ingredients are light,
carbon dioxide and water the end result is sugar and oxygen (which is released into the atmosphere)
Photosynthesis can be wrapped up in 3 steps• Light energy captured from
the sun
• Energy stored in ATP/NADPH
• ATP/NADPH and Carbon Dioxide used to make organic compounds needed for the plant cell’s survival.
