Key Concept

 In an ecosystem, organisms need a balance

environment.
A balance ecosystem is on which living thing
and non-living thing interacting
harmoniously.
 If any part of the ecosystem is disturbed,
other will also be affected.
WEEK 7-8
Most Essential Learning Competency

Differentiate basic features and

importance of
photosynthesis and respiration.
PHOTOSYNTHESIS
All organisms
need energy to
sustain life.
 Forms
of Energy
 In order to sustain life,
all organisms require
energy, but not all of
them can use light energy
directly for life activities.
 To provide the
energy needed by all
organisms, plants and
other chlorophyll-
bearing organisms
capture the energy of
sunlight and convert it
into chemical energy
stored in the food.
 When people and other
heterotrophic organisms eat food from
producers and consumers, chemical
energy stored from food is transferred
to their bodies.
Key questions for this module:

 How do plants manufacture their own food?

 What are the factors that affect the rate of
photosynthesis?
 How do cells convert stored energy in food
into chemical energy?
 How do materials and energy flow in the
ecosystem?
Plants are
great food
providers.
 Photosynthesis
is a process of
food making
done by plants
and other
autotrophic
organisms.
 CHLOROPHYLL
- enables these organisms
to make their own food.
 Autotrophic
organisms
require light
energy, carbon
dioxide (CO2),
and water (H2O)
to make food
(sugar).
 Where does
photosynthesis
take place?
Pictures of leaves and stem
TRIVIA TIME!
Plants have two different types of
transport tissue.
Xylem transports water and solutes
from the roots to the leaves,
Phloem transports food from
the leaves to the rest of the plant.
Transpiration
- the process
by which water
evaporates from
the leaves, which
results in more
water being drawn
up from the roots.
The chlorophyll
is built into the
membranes of
the thylakoids.
Chlorophyll
absorbs white
light but it looks
green.
Why leaves look
green?
 White light is consists of three
primary colors: red, blue, and
green. Only red and blue light is
absorbed thus making these colors
unavailable to be seen by our eyes
while the green light is reflected
which makes the chlorophyll looks
green.
 However, it is the
energy from red light
and blue light that are
absorbed and will be
used in photosynthesis.
The green light that we
can see is not absorbed
by the plant and thus,
cannot be used in
photosynthesis.
2 Stages of
Photosynthesis
2 Stages of Photosynthesis

Calvin Cycle
Light- (dark
dependent reaction/light
Reaction independent
reaction).
Light-dependent Reaction

 happens in the presence of light.

 occurs in the thylakoid membrane
 converts light energy to chemical energy.
 Water-one of the raw materials of
photosynthesis-is utilized during this stage
 Water also facilitates the formation of free
electrons and oxygen
 The energy harvested during this
stage is stored in the form of ATP
(Adenosine Triphosphate) and
NADPH
( Nicotinamide Adenine
Dinucleotide Phosphate
Hydrogen). These products will be
needed in the next stage to complete
photosynthetic process.
Light-independent Reaction/ Calvin
Cycle (dark reaction)
takes place in the stroma
converts Carbon dioxide (CO2) into
sugar.
does not directly need light but needs
the products of light reaction.
it occurs immediately after the light-
dependent phase.
CHEMICAL REACTION FOR
PHOTOSYNTHESIS
KEY CONCEPTS:
Plants have green pigments
called chlorophyll stored in the
chloroplast. This pigment aids in
capturing light energy from the sun
that enables plants to change it into
chemical energy stored in the food.
This process is called
photosynthesis.
KEY CONCEPTS:
Stomata are found on the lower
surface of the leaf that allows the
entrance of carbon dioxide needed
for photosynthesis. They also serve as
exit point for the oxygen produced
during photosynthesis.
FACTORS THAT AFFECT
THE RATE OF
PHOTOSYNTHESIS
Temperature
Carbon dioxide
Water
Light energy
 CELLULAR
RESPIRATION
CELLULAR RESPIRATION

RECALL!

Respiration is the process

of taking oxygen from the air
and cycling it through the
lungs, which then gives oxygen
to blood to be used in the body.
The carbon dioxide waste is
expelled out of the lungs.
 Cellular respiration
uses glucose or sugars,
from food molecules and
turns them into carbon
dioxide, water, and ATP
a nucleotide essential to
the body.
 Cellular respiration
can occur both
aerobically (using
oxygen), or
anaerobically
(without oxygen).
 During aerobic cellular
respiration, glucose
reacts with oxygen,
forming ATP that can be
used by the cell. Carbon
dioxide and water are
created as byproducts
