Lesson – Photosynthesis and Respiration
Photosynthesis and Respiration
- Photosynthesis: – process by which plants use light energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into sugar.
- Respiration: occur when glucose (Sugar produced during photosynthesis) combines with oxygen to
- produce cellular energy – this energy is used to fuel growth and all of the normal cellular function.
- Example- 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy→ C6H12O6 + 6O2
- C6H12O6 + 6O26CO2 + 6H2O + Energy
- Light energy captured by photosynthesis is used in a plant for the synthesis of -Carbohydrates, fatty acids, &protein.
- The gas evolved in bubbling pondweed in the light is (air enriched with O2 + CO2 and N2
- ATP- full from- Adenosine triphosphate chlorophyll is soluble in – organic solvent.
- ATP formation in photosynthesis is known as – phosphorylation.
- Photosynthesis light energy is utilized in converting ADP into ATP.
- Photochemical reactions in the chloroplast are directly involved in (Photolysis of water + Phosphorylation of ADP to ATP.
- Ca, Mn, Cl- element are essential for the photolysis of water Respiratory Quotient (R.Q)
- Q = volume of CO2 released /volume of O2 released.
- RQ=1- Carbohydrate, RQ- Protein- 0.8, Fat- 0.7
- Cytochrome – Involved in the transfer of electrons in Photosynthesis.
- Peroxisomes are associated with- photorespiration kranz anatomy is found in leaves of C4 Plants
- The end product of Fermentation is C2H5OH
- Fermentation – is an extracellular process.
- Anaerobic Respiration – Intercellular.
- Ribozymes are RNA acting as Enzymes.
- The major difference Between C3& C4 Plant is photorespiration.
- Yeast is used in the formation of Alcohol.
- Agrawal Chloroplast occurs in C4 plants
- In Bacterial Photosynthesis Comes from H2
- Blue and red Light- Photosynthesis is maximum.
- The total amount of water absorbed by the plant if actual Percentage used during Photosynthesis is 1%.
- Protein Content in Yeast cells- 40-50%
- Yeast- Microorganism has high vitamin content.
-
- Asepsis means- Absence of Microorganism
- Gas Produced by TA (Thermophilic Anaerobic Spoilage (H2 and CO2)
- Cellular respiration is the process by which microorganisms obtain the energy available in carbohydrates. They take the carbohydrates into their cytoplasm, and through a complex series of metabolic processes, they break down the carbohydrate and release the energy.
Note-1.During the process of cellular respiration, carbon dioxide is given off as a waste product.
- In the process of cellular respiration, oxygen gas is required to serve as an acceptor of electrons. This oxygen gas is identical to the oxygen gas given off in photosynthesis.
