What I Need to Know

 Performance Standards:
Prepare simple fermentation setup using common fruits to produce wine or
vinegar via microorganisms.

 Introduction:
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the energy currency used throughout
the cell. ATP provides energy for the cell to do work, such as mechanical
work, transport substances across the membrane, and perform various
chemical reactions. ATP is composed of phosphate groups, a ribose and
adenine. In the structure of ATP, there are three phosphate groups attached
to adenosine. The last two bonds on the phosphate groups contain especially
high energy and are therefore very useful for doing work within living cells.
The bonds that hold phosphate groups are easily broken by hydrolysis which
results in the release of energy.

 What’s In

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)

• Structure composed of: sugar ribose, nitrogen base adenine and a chain of 3-
phosphate groups
• Mediates most energy coupling in cells
• Powers cellular work
• 3 main kinds of work of a cell: chemical work, transport work and mechanical work.
These are possible through energy coupling, where the cells use and exergonic
process to drive an endergonic reaction.
• chemical work: synthesis of polymers from monomers (pushing of endergonic
reactions)
• transport work: pumping of substances across membranes (against the direction of
spontaneous movement)
• mechanical work: beating of cilia, contraction of muscles
• also used to make RNA (since ATP is used as one of the nucleoside triphosphate

Hydrolysis of ATP

• process of breaking down bonds between the phosphate groups

• this happens when a water molecule breaks the terminal phosphate bond
• HOPO32-, abbreviated P I leaves ATP
• Forming Adenosine diphosphate (ADP)
• Energy is released. This comes from the chemical change of the system state of
lower free energy and NOT from the phosphate bonds.
• Hydrolysis releases so much energy because of the negative charges of the
phosphate groups. These charges are crowded together and their mutual repulsion
contributes to the instability of that region of the ATP. The energy equivalent of the
triphosphate tail of ATP is compared to a compressed spring.

Fig. 1.b. The Hydrolysis of ATP

14
How the Hydrolysis of ATP Perform Work

• Proof that ATP releases heat: in a test set up, the hydrolysis of ATP releases energy
in the form of heat in the surrounding water.
• Most of the time when an animal is exposed in a cold environment, the reaction of
the body is through shivering. In this reaction of the organism, shivering uses ATP
during muscle contraction to warm the body. Since it will also be a disadvantage for
organisms to generate heat during ATP hydrolysis, in order to maintain the living
conditions inside the cell, the energy released during ATP hydrolysis is used by
proteins to perform work: chemical, transport and mechanical
• Hydrolysis of ATP leads to change in the shape of protein and in its ability to bind to
another molecule. Phosphorylation (ADP to ATP) and dephosphorylating (ATP to
ADP) promote crucial protein shape changes during important cellular process
Fig. 1.c. Phosphorylation (ADP to ATP) and dephosphorylation (ATP to ADP)

The Fluidity of the membrane is due to temperature, the configuration of the

unsaturated fatty acid tails (some kinked or form a sharp twist by double bonds), the
presence of cholesterol embedded in the membrane, and the mosaic nature of the

The Regeneration of ATP

• ATP is a renewable it can be regenerated by the addition of phosphate to ADP

• Catabolism (exergonic) provides the free energy to phosphorylate ADP.

15
 • ATP formation is not spontaneous, so there is a need to use free energy for
the process to work.
• ATP cycle is the shuttling of inorganic phosphate and energy.
• It couples the cell’s energy yielding processes (exergonic) to energy
consuming process (endergonic)
• ATP regeneration happens very fast (10M molecules of ATP used ad
regenerated per second)
• If ATP could not be regenerated by phosphorylation of ADP, HUMANS would
use nearly their body weight in ATP each day.

Fig. 1.d. The ATP cycle

• As temperatures cool, membranes switch from a fluid state to a solid state.

• The temperature at which a membrane solidifies depends on the types of lipids.
• Membranes rich in unsaturated fatty acids are more fluid than those rich in
saturated fatty acids. (Fig. 7.f.)

The Importance of Chlorophyll and Other Pigments

Terminology:
Chromatography
 is a separation technique used to identify various components of mixtures based
on the differences in their structure and/or composition.

Pigments
 are substances that absorb visible light. Different pigments absorb light of different
wavelengths.

16
Light, as it encounters an object, is either reflected, transmitted, or absorbed. Visible
light, with a wavelength of 380–750nm, is the segment in the entire range of
electromagnetic spectrum that is most important to life on earth. It is detected as
various colors by the human eye. The color that is not absorbed by pigments of objects
is transmitted or reflected and that is the color of the object that we see.

Fig. 1.e. The Electromagnetic Spectrum

Pigments are the means by which plants capture sun’s energy to be used in
photosynthesis. However, since each pigment absorbs only a narrow range of
wavelength, there is usually a need to produce several kinds of pigments of different
colors to capture more of sun’s energy.

Chlorophyll
 is the greenish pigment found in the thylakoid membrane inside the chloroplast of
a plant cell.

Chlorophyll absorbs blue and red light while it transmits and reflects green light. This
is why leaves appear green.

There are several kinds of chlorophyll. Among these, chlorophyll a plays the most
important role in photosynthesis. It directly participates in converting solar energy to
chemical energy.

Other pigments in the chloroplast play the part of accessory pigments. These pigments
can absorb light and transfer the energy to chlorophyll a. One of these accessory
pigments is chlorophyll b. Some carotenoids also contribute energy to chlorophyll a.
Other carotenoids, however, serve as protection for chlorophyll by dissipating
excessive energy that will otherwise be destructive to chlorophyll.

17
Structure of chlorophyll • Head—a flat hydrophilic head called porphyrin ring. It has a
magnesium atom at its center. Different chlorophylls differ on the side groups attached
to the porphyrin. • Tail—a lipid-soluble hydrocarbon tail.

How does photoexcitation of chlorophyll happen?

1. A chlorophyll molecule absorbs photon or light energy.
2. An electron of the molecule in its normal orbital, said to be in its ground state, will
be elevated to an orbital of a higher energy. The molecule is now in an excited state.
The molecule only absorbs photon that has the energy that is equal to the energy
needed for it to be able to elevate from the ground state to the excited state.
3. The excited state is unstable. Hence, excited electrons drop back down to the
ground state immediately after, releasing energy in the form of heat and photon. This
happens in isolated chlorophyll molecules. However, chlorophyll molecule that is found
in its natural environment in the thylakoid membrane forms a photosystem together
with proteins and other organic molecules to prevent the loss of energy from the
electrons.

Fig. 1.f. The Photoexcitation of Chlorophyll

Photosystem

A photosystem is an aggregate of pigments and proteins in the thylakoid membrane

responsible for the absorption of photons and the transfer of energy and electrons. It
is composed of:

• Light-harvesting complex— is also called the ‘antenna’ complex and is consisted of

several different pigments (chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, and carotenoids) bounded with
proteins. When a pigment molecule absorbs a photon, energy is passed on from one
pigment molecule to another pigment molecule until the energy reaches the reaction
center.

• Reaction-center complex—is composed of a pair of chlorophyll a and a primary

electron acceptor. The primary electron acceptor is a specialized molecule that is able
to accept electrons from the pair of chlorophyll a. The pair of chlorophyll a in the
reaction-center is also specialized because they are capable of transferring an

18
electron to the primary electron acceptor and not just boosting the electron to a higher
energy level.

There are two types of photosystem:

• Photosystem II—was discovered later after the discovery of Photosystem I, but

functions first in the light reaction of photosynthesis. The chlorophyll a in the reaction-
center of Photosystem II effectively absorbs light with a wavelength of 680nm and thus
called P680.
• Photosystem I—was discovered first. Its reaction-center has a chlorophyll a called
P700 because it is effective in absorbing light with a wavelength of 700nm.

What I Need to Know

 Introduction:

Autotrophic organisms use the pigment chlorophyll to harvest solar

energy to produce the stored energy as chemical bonds of ATP and
carbohydrates. In eukaryotes, chlorophyll is associated with thylakoid
membranes of the chloroplast. Photosynthesis in eukaryotes involves three
essential processes:
1. Energy absorption from sunlight via pigments during light-dependent
reaction
2. Reactivation of reaction center
3. Carbohydrates production by carbon fixation during dark reaction.

What’s In

During PHOTOSYNTHESIS:

• Energy from sunlight is harvested and used to drive the synthesis of glucose from
CO2 and H2O. By converting the energy of sunlight to a usable form of potential
chemical energy, photosynthesis is the ultimate source of metabolic energy for all
biological systems.

22
• Photosynthesis takes place in two distinct stages. (A) In the light reactions, energy
from sunlight drives the synthesis of ATP and NADPH, coupled to the formation of O2
from H2O. (B) In the dark reactions (named because they do not require sunlight), the
ATP and NADPH produced by the light reactions drive glucose synthesis.
• In eukaryotic cells, both the light and dark reactions of photosynthesis occur within
chloroplasts—the light reactions in the thylakoid membrane and the dark reactions
within the stroma.

The two stages of photosynthesis:

• Light reactions—use sunlight to initiate electron transfer, thereby reducing NADP+

to NADPH and splitting water to give off oxygen as a by-product.
• form ATP through phosphorylation
• take place in the thylakoids of the chloroplast

• Calvin Cycle—sometimes referred to as ‘dark reactions’ because it does not require

light energy for its processes to take place
• incorporates CO2 into organic molecules through carbon fixation
• uses NADPH and ATP to produce carbohydrate from the fixed carbon
• takes place in the stroma of chloroplast
• returns ADP, inorganic phosphate, and NADP+ to the light reactions

Fig. 2.b. The Light Reactions

.

23
Light Reactions Events

1. Light energy or photon is absorbed by a pigment molecule of the light-harvesting

complex of Photosystem II and is passed on to other pigment molecules nearby until
the energy makes it to the reaction center. In the reaction center, it is absorbed by the
P680 pair of chlorophyll a.

2. The electron in this pair of chlorophyll a is raised to an excited state and is

transferred to the primary electron acceptor. P680 loses its electron and becomes
positively charged (P680+).

3. The positively charged molecule attracts electrons from a water molecule, resulting
to the splitting up of H20 into two electrons, two hydrogen ions (H+), and an oxygen
atom with the provision of light energy. The oxygen atom immediately combines with
another oxygen atom to form an oxygen molecule (O2) which is then released outside
the leaf through the stomata.

4. The excited electrons are then passed on from the primary electron acceptor to the
electron carrier molecules through the electron transport chain until they reach
Photosystem I. The electron carrier molecules involved here are plastoquinone (Pq),
a cytochrome complex, and plastocyanin (Pc).

5. At each transfer, the electrons release small amounts of energy. This energy is used
to pump hydrogen ions across the membrane. The splitting up of water molecules
results to an uneven distribution of hydrogen ions in the stroma and the lumen. The
H+ ions tries to equalize their distribution by moving from the lumen to the stroma
through the aid of a membrane protein called ATP synthase. This is referred to as
chemiosmosis. The movement of hydrogen ions through the ATP synthase channel
triggers the synthesis of ATP from ADP. The ATP contains high-energy phosphate
bonds.

6. Meanwhile, photon is also absorbed and energy is passed on from one pigment
molecule to another until the energy reaches the reaction center complex of
Photosystem I. The energy excites the electron present in the pair of P700 chlorophyll
a located here. The excited electron is then transferred to a primary electron acceptor,
making the P700 positively charged and now seeking electrons to fill up the missing
ones. This is filled up by the electrons from Photosystem II that are passed on through
the electron transport chain.

7. The photo-excited electron from the primary electron acceptor of Photosystem I

enters another electron transfer chain, passing the electron to an iron-containing
protein called ferredoxin (Fd).

8. An enzyme, the NADP+ reductase, then transfers the electron to NADP+ and
stabilizes it by adding a proton (H+) to form NADPH. NADPH is then released to the
stroma and becomes part of the Calvin Cycle.

Cyclic Electron Flow Aside from the usual route of electron flow as described in the
events of the light reactions (i.e., noncyclic or linear electron flow), photo-excited
electrons may take a short-circuited route which utilizes Photosystem I but not

24
Photosystem II. The ferrodoxin goes back to the cycle and passes the electron to the
cytochrome complex and to the Pc until it reaches P700 chlorophyll instead of
transferring the electron to NADP+reductase. Due to this event, no NADPH is
produced but ATP is still synthesized.

Fig. 2.c. Cyclic Electron Flow

1. Oxidoreductase - catalyze redox reactions; dehydrogenases, oxidases,

peroxidases, reductases.
2. Transferases - catalyze group transfer reactions; often require coenzymes.
3. Hydrolases - catalyze hydrolysis reactions.
4. Lyases - lysis of substrate; produce contains double bond.
5. Isomerases - catalyze structural changes; isomerization.

The Calvin Cycle

• also referred to as light-independent reactions or “dark reactions”

• takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast
• second stage of photosynthesis that is involved in the formation of sugar from CO2
using chemical energy stored in ATP and NADPH, the products of light reactions

The Calvin Cycle

Important points to know:

• The sugar that is produced in the Calvin Cycle is not the six-carbon glucose that we
are familiar with. This is formed later on. What is produced in the Calvin Cycle is a
three-carbon sugar known as G3P or glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate.
• The Calvin Cycle needs to ‘spin’ three times to make one molecule of G3P from three
molecules of CO2.

Three Phases of Calvin Cycle:

Carbon Fixation

• Carbon fixation is a process of incorporating an inorganic carbon molecule, CO2, into

an organic material.

25
• In this phase, the CO2 molecule is attached to a five-carbon sugar molecule named
ribulose biphosphate (RuBP) aided by an enzyme named rubisco or RuBP
carboxylase. Rubisco is believed to be the most abundant protein in the chloroplast
and maybe on Earth.
• The resulting product, a six-carbon sugar, is extremely unstable and immediately
splits in half. The split forms two molecules of a 3-phosphoglycerate (3-carbon).

Reduction

• A phosphate group (from ATP) is then attached to each 3-phosphoglycerate by an

enzyme, forming 1,3-phosphoglycerate.
• NADPH swoops in and reduces 1,3-biphosphogycerate to G3P.
• For every six G3Ps produced by the Calvin Cycle, five are recycled to regenerate
three molecules of RuBP. Only one G3P leaves the cycle to be packaged for use by
the cell.
• It will take two molecules of G3P to make one molecule of glucose.
• The ADP and NADP+ that is formed during the Calvin Cycle will be transported back
to the thylakoid membrane and will enter the light reactions. Here, they will be
‘recharged’ with energy and become ATP and NADPH.

Regeneration of RuBP

• Five molecules of G3P undergo a series of complex enzymatic reactions to form

three molecules of RuBP. This costs the cell another three molecules of AT, but also
provides another set of RuBP to continue the cycle.

What happens to G3P after its release from the cycle?

• Two G3Ps can combine together to form either glucose or fructose which are both
are six-carbon sugar.
• Glucose and fructose can be combined to form sucrose.
• Glucose can be connected in chains to form starch.
• G3Ps can also be used in lipid and protein synthesis.

The cost of making carbohydrate:

To make one molecule of G3P, the chloroplast needs:
• 3 molecules of CO2
• 9 molecules of ATP
• 6 molecules of NADPH

What I Need to Know

Cellular Respiration

In cellular respiration, glucose is converted to pyruvic acid which can enter

either through aerobic respiration or anaerobic respiration.
In aerobic respiration, pyruvic acid molecules enter the mitochondria and
through a series of chemical reactions known as the citric acid cycle (Kreb’s cycle) via
electron transport chain. In the Kreb’s cycle, the pyruvic acid is converted to carbon
dioxide. The electron transport chain accepts the electron from the breakdown
products of the Kreb’s cycle and glycolysis via the NADH and FADH2. At the end of the
chain, the electrons are combined with hydrogen ions and molecular oxygen to form
water. This process can produce ATP. During this process, the glucose molecule is
broken down and the carbon atoms released from glucose are combined with oxygen
to produce carbon dioxide.
In anaerobic respiration, pyruvic acid is converted to lactic acid. There is a
production of two ATP molecules for each glucose molecule.

 What I Know

Chemical reactions for cellular respiration:

 Which groups in the cellular respiration equation go in?

 Which groups are released?

C6H12O6 + 6 O2  6 CO2 + 6 H2O + energy

PRIOR KNOWLEDGE: Definition of Terms

1. Aerobic respiration
2. Anaerobic respiration
3. Pyruvic acid
4. Fermentation
5. Glycolysis
6. Krebs cycle
7. Electron transport chain

What’s In

In Cellular respiration:

• Oxygen is reduced to water

• Has electron transport chain located within the cristae of the mitochondria, where
ATP is produced by chemiosmosis
• Has enzyme-catalyzed reactions within the semi-fluid interior
• A carbohydrate is oxidized to carbon dioxide

Glycolysis-means “sugar-splitting” that occurs in the cytosol of the cell. It does not
require oxygen to breakdown glucose into pyruvate.

Krebs cycle-completes the metabolic breakdown of glucose to carbon dioxide and

produces 2 ATP.

Oxidative phosphorylation-a process occurring in mitochondria and accounts for

majority of the ATP production.

Electron Transport Chain-contains the chain members (carrier and protein

complexes, ATP synthase complex and ATP channel protein. These membrane

30
proteins shuttle electrons during the redox reactions. The electrons will be used to
produce ATP by chemiosmosis.

NADH and FADH2-these are electron acceptor molecules that contain high-energy
electrons. They transport the electrons to ETC to produce many more ATPs by
oxidative phosphorylation.

ATP synthase-is an enzyme that is responsible for the great production of ATPs.
This happens when it uses the energy coming from H+ ions to bind ADP and
phosphate group together to produce ATP.

Fig. 3.b. The diagram below shows the total energy produced from the complete breakdown of glucose
by aerobic respiration.

 Key Concepts:

Fermentation refers to the addition of yeast or a specific microorganisms or

enzyme to a raw material to produce a desired product. But for the so-called natural
fermentation method, we will produce VCO that does not require any addition of
microorganisms or substance. When the coconut milk mixture is allowed to stand for at
least 10 hours, the VCO will naturally separate from water and protein. Several theories
say that the separation of these substances is due to the presence of airborne acetic
acid bacteria (Acetobacter aceti). A. aceti breaks the protein bonds in the coconut milk
causing the mixture to separate distinctively.
Another theory says that the enzyme present in the coconut makes the
separation of substances to occur. The so-called ‘fermentation method’ happens when
after 16 to 24 hours of settling, the water smells and tastes sour. The so-called ‘natural’
explains that there is no addition of any other substance or microorganism in fermenting
the virgin coconut oil. Also the ‘virgin’ in the virgin coconut oil implies that there is no
substance added to make the oil.
On the other hand, vinegar is a sour-tasting condiment and preservative. It can
be prepared by two successive microbial processes. The first phase is done through
alcoholic fermentation by a eukaryotic organism called yeast. The second phase is by
oxidation of alcohol by a prokaryotic organism called Acetobacter aceti. This bacterium
is responsible for converting the alcohol in wine to acetic acid or vinegar. Since coconut
is abundant in our country, use this example to show the principle of fermentation
process involving microorganisms and the series of reactions that take place as coconut
water is converted into vinegar.

ANSWER KEY
43
Summary and Conclusion
Aerobic respiration requires molecular oxygen to
happen in the cells of most eukaryotes and
prokaryotes. Here, nutrients are split into a series
of enzyme-controlled reactions producing an
estimated 36 to 38 ATP per glucose complete
breakdown. Molecular oxygen is the final
acceptor of the low-energy level electron at the
end of the electron transport system that results
in the production of water. In anaerobic
respiration on the other hand does not require
oxygen in splitting nutrients. Some prokaryotes
that live in oxygen-free environments such as
water logged soil, in ponds where water does not
flow, and in the intestines of animals transfer
glucose to NADH and then pass the electrons
down the electron transport chain that is joined to
ATP synthesis by chemiosmosis. Nitrate and
sulfate are the final acceptors of electrons. The
end products are carbon dioxide, reduced
inorganic substances and ATP. In fermentation
(as type of anaerobic respiration) there is no
electron acceptor because it has no electron
transport chain. Its products are either alcohol
(and carbon dioxide) or lactate.
