31. Know how organisms’ obtain their energy:
• Autotrophs
• Heterotrophs
• Photosynthesis
• Cellular respiration (aerobic and anaerobic)
• ATP and how many are yielded in the above
|
|
Definition
Autotrophs: obtain energy through photosynthesis
Heterotrophs: depends upon other organisms for food.
Photosynthesis: The process whereby simple sugars are formed from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of light and chlorophyll.
Aerobic cellular respiration: The oxygen requiring process of breaking down a food substance to obtain cellular energy.
Anaerobic cellular respiration: The process of breaking down a food substance to obtain cellular energy, does not require oxygen. |
|
|
Term
| 32. Know the formulas for photosynthesis and aerobic cellular respiration. |
|
Definition
Photosynthesis: H2O + CO2 + light energy with chlorophyll gives C6H12O6 + O2
Cellular respiration: C6H12O6 + O2 gives H2O = CO2 + ATP (energy) |
