Chapter 7 and 8 discuss and give in depth details on photosynthesis and cellular respiration. They are the exact opposites in what they set out to complete in the cells of a leaf. Photosynthesis takes light energy and separates it in the chloroplasts to create glucose. Cellular respiration breaks down glucose to provide energy for the cell. The similarities between them include overlap in some of the enzymes and products and reactants utilized. The differences include the cycles and steps taken to

Chloroplasts and Photosynthesis All animals and most microorganisms rely on the continual uptake of large amounts of organic compounds from their environment. These compounds are used to provide both the carbon skeletons for biosynthesis and the metabolic energy that drives cellular processes. It is believed that the first organisms on the primitive Earth had access to an abundance of the organic compounds produced by geochemical processes‚ but that most of these original compounds were used up billions

4Car carried out real-world fuel economy tests on eight low-emissions cars and all failed to meet the official figures. Three cars were as much as 10mpg short of the published fuel consumption rates. The tests examined the Golf Bluemotion‚ Skoda Fabia Greenline‚ Mini Cooper D‚ Honda Civic Hybrid‚ Toyota Aygo‚ Ford Focus Econetic‚ Fiat 500 1.2‚ BMW 118d‚ all of which are regarded as low emissions/fuel economy models. The Golf Bluemotion got closest to its official figures in the 4Car tests

Lab #2: Energy in Cell Virtual Lab - Week 3 NAME: ________________________________________ 1. What is the importance of the light and dark reactions in photosynthesis? Photosynthesis works by absorbing light. Our sun gives off energy and the chlorophyll from the plant absorb this energy. The energy is then used to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen and then they combine hydrogen and carbon dioxide to make sugars. 2. What happens to food energy during photosynthesis? During

Factors Affecting Photosynthesis Low light intensity lowers the rate of photosynthesis. As the intensity is increased the rate also increases. However‚ after reaching an intensity of 10‚000 lux (lux is the unit for measuring light intensity) there is no effect on the rate. Very high intensity may‚ in fact‚ slow down the rate as it bleaches the chlorophyll. Normal sunlight (usually with an intensity of about 100‚000 lux) is quite sufficient for a normal rate of photosynthesis. Open and Closed

Lab 4: Photosynthesis and Chromatography of Spinach Leaves Discussion: The chromatography of the spinach leaves was taken to establish what pigments were present in the chloroplasts of the leaves. The solvent carried and separated the different pigments up the cellulose paper. The solvent moved up the paper because of capillary action because of adhesion of the solvent molecules and the paper. The pigments dissolved in the solvent also were carried up the paper and were separated because

pollutant directly or a subsequent problem that arises from the pollutant in question. I will be discussing the causes and effects of the air pollutant CO2 (Carbon Dioxide)‚ what can be done to prevent this pollutant affecting our planet and also what measures have already been put in place to reduce the impact of these pollutants. CO2 is a greenhouse gas‚ a greenhouse gas is characterised as being a gas that absorbs infrared radiation and contributes to the greenhouse effect. We need the

The Relationship Between Work Rate And Oxygen Uptake During Incremental Submaximal Exercise Introduction Oxygen uptake () describes the rate at which oxygen is utilized by tissues (Burton et al‚ 2004). is determined by heart rate (heart beats each minute)‚ stroke volume (the volume of blood pumped from one ventricle each beat) and arteriovenous oxygen difference (difference in blood-oxygen content between arterial and venous blood). Oxygen is needed for respiration‚ the chemical process that
