The Calvin Cycle

Chapter 7 Photosynthesis

 Although not yet on the topic of Genetics, we will discuss the article: " Chinese Scientist Claims First Gene-Edited Babies.

You will take notes from the PowerPoint. ( An overview of Photosynthesis)

Welcome Back

We will discuss the chapter 6 test results. 

Introduction to Photosynthesis  

Compare and Contrast Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis

Use pictures and words to compare and contrast cellular respiration to photosynthesis. Be creative.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.

The Chloroplast

Chapter 6 Test

Multiple choice test on Cellular Respiration.

Grading Chapter 6 Packet

You will turn in the usual assignments plus the drawing of the mitochondrion, the Vitamin chart, and your energy needs diagram.

Energy Needs Assignment

You will follow directions to calculate your total energy needs.  You will then compare the calories you actually consumed to your caloric needs.

In addition, you will list some of the vitamins and minerals needed by the body; you will state the vitamin, the source of the vitamin, functions performed, and symptoms of deficiency or extreme excess.

The vitamins and minerals to be examined are those that are directly related to the cellular respiration:
Vitamin B1 - Thiamine
Vitamin B 2 - Riboflavin
Vitamin B3  - Niacin
Vitamin B6
Pantothenic acid
Chromium
Iron

You will take notes from the PowerPoint to complete the chapter.

Calorimetric Lab

You will work in your lab groups to calculate the calories in cheetos and tortilla chips.
You will use a rudimentary calorimeter to measure the calories.

The Krebs Cycle

The Krebs Cycle takes place in the mitochondrial matrix.

The Krebs Cycle ( Citric Acid Cycle)

PowerPoint Presentation

You will take notes from the PowerPoint.  You will examine the details of glycolysis, the Krebs cycle,
and the electron transport chain and chemiosmosis.

Chapter 6: How Cells Harvest Chemical Energy

You will take notes from the PowerPoint to help explain the overview of cellular respiration given during class yesterday.

Overview of Cellular Respiration

You will take notes on the major aspects of cellular respiration.  These notes are intended to breakdown the process and for you to understand the big picture, to help you comprehend the details. 
I hope you will read each of the stages, and then read the textbook and look at the pictures to follow grasp the process.  After all " 'they' say a picture is worth a thousand words." 😐

PowerPoint - Notes

 Friday, November 2, 2018
You will take notes on the first few sections of the text:
Breathing supplying the oxygen to our cells
Cellular respiration banking energy in ATP molecules and
making connections by showing how the body uses energy from ATP for all its activities.

Introduction to Chapter 6

Equation representing cellular respiration:  The equation is REDOX reaction.   (LEO the lion says GER).  Loss of electron is oxidation.  Gain of electron is reduction.



Hydrogen is removed from the glucose from glucose by the enzyme dehydrogenase during cellular respiration.The dehydrogenase denotes the hydrogen to an acceptor NAD/NADH or FAD/ FADH2
