photosynthesis & cellular respiration
Storyboard Text
- hey dad whatis photosynthesisand Cellularrespiration
- Well...I have no idea.
- I will tech you then
- You dont now what is photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration yet.
- plants go through this system called Photosynthesis is the process by which autographs get food from the sun.
- its like this they use the energy that they get from the sun, and use it to combine the carbon dioxide in the air and the water from the ground to create glucose and oxygen.
- oh okBut how does it work? Could you explain it?
- What is the glucose and oxygen for?
- But how does the sunlight get inside of the chloroplast?
- On the outside of the chloroplast are little pores called stomata that it goes through afterward, the sunlight is used to combine carbon dioxide from the air and water that we get from roots to create glucose and oxygen. This is known as the light-independent reactions.
- Buy what do they do with the oxygen and the glucose?
- the pigment in chloroplast, chlorophyll, in ther leaves, absorb the energy from the sun. This is known light-dependent reactions.
- I did not forget about that Cellular Respiration that allows us to take glucose and turn it into energy Cellular respiration produces 6 moles of carbon dioxides, water, moles, and energy
- Gycolysisis the breaking up of glucose ;pyruvic acids. This occurs in the cytoplasm The by-products of gycolysis are then entered into the Krebs cycle which requires oxygen During gyolysis and Krebs cycle we are taking and we add hydrogen to make NADH which drives our next stage called Electron Transport Cycle
- Glucose is the sugar which they use for energy, and oxygen is just a waste product.
- then what is the gycolysis and where does it happen?
- Ok i get it now but what about Cellular Respiration
- So what next Wait! You forgot ATP Synthase right?
- I was just getting there. ATP synthase uses energy to complete the phosphorylation of ADP to ATP, ADP is formed when phosphate from ATP is lost.
- Lastly, Carbon Dioxide and water are expelled as wasteIn summary: Sugar + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water + ATP (energy).
- So in conclusion Photosynthesis makes the glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make ATP, While photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, cellular respiration requires oxygen and releases carbon dioxide. It is the released oxygen that is used by us and most other organisms for cellular respiration.
- Thank you dad for teaching me.
- its my pleasure to teach you son.
