CHAPTER 8Photosynthesis Sheldon: Revised 2011
PLANTS USE • SUNLIGHT ENERGY TO MAKE THEIR OWN FOOD • You Tube Plants and Sunlight
Autotrophs Plants use sunlight to make their own food Heterotrophs Obtain energy from foods they consume (plants and animals) Where does your energy come from?
Energy in Chemical Bonds • EXOTHERMIC: When a bond is broken, energy is released. • ENDOTHERMIC: It takes energy in to hold bonds together.
Endothermic or Exothermic? • Endothermic Video (digital Thermometer) • Barium Hydroxide Octahydrate with Ammonium Thiocyanate (teacher) • Exothermic Video (Fe2O3 + sugar) • Sodium and Water in Trash Can • Exothermic Thermite • Myth Busters Thermite Exothermic • Make an Instant Cold Pack from Sodium Acetate (Nurd Rage) • SupernovaMake Glow Sticks - The Science
Cell’s Batteries • ATP • Adenosine Tri Phosphate VIDEO: howstuffworks (ATP)
CHARGED UNCHARGED
Where might ATP be used? • Used directly for: • Muscle movement • Synthesis of protein • Firefly flash • Sperm swimming • White blood cells moving YouTube Macrophage
Photosynthesis is the most important chemical process on earth because: • It provides food for virtually all organisms
We see reflected wavelengthsWe don’t see absorbed wavelengths
Chlorophyll • The green pigment (light-absorbing molecules) in plants in their chloroplasts
Chlorophyll a Absorbs 430 + 662 nm Absorbs Blue-violet and red Chlorophyll b Absorbs 460 + 642 nm Absorbs Blue and orange-red Chlorophyll a and b
Also plants have other pigments: • Carotenoids (orange) • Phycoerythrin (red) • Flavins (orange-yellow) Anthocyanin –blue-purple
The Beginning of Photosynthesis Experiments What do you see? Photosynthesis History Video
Van Helmont Plants gain most of their mass from H2O Photosynthesis History 1580-1644
Priestley’s Experiment:Plants release O2 Collected oxygen • sprig of mint 1733- 1804
Jan Ingenhousz1730-1799 physician • Light is necessary for plants to produce O2 NO LIGHT-no oxygen

4. Mesophyll = middle leaf • Made of: • 6. Palisade Layer (vertical, tightly packed) + • 7. Spongy Layer (has air spaces) • Is where photosynthesis takes place
6. Palisade Layer • Tightly packed columns of plant cells
5. Cuticle • Waxy covering of epidermis (reduces water loss)
1. Stomata (pl.) (sing.= stoma) • Opening to let gases and water vapor in and out • Controlled by guard cells • In lower epidermis
8. Guard Cells • Control the opening of the stoma Stoma LabBench
Which stoma is open and which is closed? You Tube Guard Cells LE 36-14 20 µm
Cells turgid/Stoma open Cells flaccid/Stoma closed LE 36-15a Radially oriented cellulose microfibrils Cell wall Vacuole Guard cell Changes in guard cell shape and stomatal opening and closing (surface view)

9. Vein • Xylem - tubes carrying water • Phloem - tubes carrying food Leaf Cross Section Review
