Ashley Cooper Biology 240 Week 1 Photosynthesis: Photosynthesis is the process in which plants convert light energy into chemical energy (glucose). Photosynthesis takes place in the chloroplasts of plants. * The Light Dependent Reaction: The light dependent reaction takes place in the membrane of the thylakoid membrane of a chloroplast and the lumen of the thylakoid. As light hits the thylakoid (the pigment) the Chlorophyll is absorbing the energy from the photons. Chlorophyll

Carrie Cunnien SCIE 206 Biology January 20, 2013 IP 2 Abstract Some of the things that will be discussed are how photosynthesis and respiration are linked in order to provide you with energy from the food we eat. The absence of oxygen some cells and organisms can use glycolysis coupled to fermentation to produce energy to your cells. Cells use enzymes as biological catalysts to increase or accelerate the rate of reactions. Energy, Metabolism, and Cells Photosynthesis envelopes everything

AP Biology Exam Review: Lab Essays At least one essay (FRQ) on the exam will be based on an AP laboratory. To prepare for this question, review the objectives for all twelve laboratory exercises. The College Board does not necessarily expect that you have completed that lab, but rather that you have investigated the objectives of the lab. You may be asked to “design an experiment to determine….” You don’t necessarily need to create a new lab; if you have done an activity that would answer the

Carbohydrates are similar to glucose in the way they are broken down and stored to be synthesized later to be used when energy is needed. Estrela’s body will be in need of energy when she begins her walk to school. The body will begin the process of cellular respiration, which involves the use of ATP which then converts into the proper breakdown of glucose and simple carbohydrates

Cellular respiration begins with glucose. Glucose is the primary fuel used in glycolysis, the first stage of cellular respiration. This molecule is found in the gel-like substance called cytoplasm that fills the cell. In glycolysis, glucose undergoes phosphorylation by ATP. The ATP is converted back to ADP. The glucose molecule is rearranged and undergoes a second phosphorylation by ATP. The second ATP is also converted back to ADP. Glucose, a six-carbon molecule, is split into 2 three-carbon

was recorded as the amount of oxygen consumed. To calculate the gross photosynthesis, the amount of oxygen produced and the amount of oxygen consumed were added together to represent how far the liquid would have moved upward if there was no cellular respiration. This was recorded in mm/10 and using this number, the rate of photosynthesis was calculated by multiplying the gross photosynthesis by 6 to get mm/hr. Once all the data for white light was recorded, the data for the green light was recorded
