Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Photosynthesis Plants use energy

Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration

Photosynthesis § Plants use energy from the sun and make food. § Is a chemical reaction. § Only Plants (and some bluegreen algae) perform Photosynthesis. § Takes place in the Chloroplasts. § Chlorophyll- pigment that is found in Chloroplasts, and makes plants green.

What Happens? § Plants take in carbon dioxide from animals. § Add in water from the soil and get energy from the Sun to make it all work. § The plant makes Glucose, Oxygen, and a little water.

OK-One More Time!!! Reactants: § Water § Energy from the sun § Carbon Dioxide from animals Products: § Oxygen § Glucose § A little water

OK-I Promise, this is the Last Time!!!

Cellular Respiration • Takes place in both Plant and Animal Cells. • Cells break down food (Glucose) and release energy in the cells. • Takes place in the Mitochondria. • The energy released is ATP.

What Happens? • Animals take in Glucose and Oxygen from the plants. • Energy (ATP) and Carbon Dioxide are made. • Energy is made when the chemical bonds of the ATP molecule is broken. • This all takes place in the Mitochondria of the cell.

Did ya Get it?

One More Time!!! Reactants: • Oxygen • Glucose Products: • Carbon Dioxide • Water • ATP (Energy)

I Promise this is the Last Time!!!

Which is Which? ? ? C 6 H 12 O 6 + O 2 -----> ATP + C 02 + H 2 O energy CO 2 + H 2 O -----> C 6 H 12 O 6 + O 2 from sun
