Few Notes:

Cellular respiration

It is the complex process in which cells make adenosine triphosphate (ATP) by breaking down organic compound.

  Both autotrophy and het-erotrophs undergo cellular respiration to break down organic compound to release energy. Some of this energy is used to produce (ATP).

  Cellular respiration can divide into 2 stages.

1) Glycolysis (anaerobic process)

2) Aerobic process 


 glycolysis

Bio chemical path way in which one six carbon molecules of glucose is oxidized to produce 3 carbon molecules of pyruvic acid

-It is a serious of chemical reactions catalyzed by (specific enzymes).

All of the reaction of glycolysis take place in main four steps. 


1-Two phosphate groups are attached to one molecule of glucose forming a new six carbon compound that has two phosphate group.

The phosphate groups are supply by two molecules of ATP, which are converted into two molecules of ADP in this process.


2-the six carbon atoms which formed in step one is split into two or three carbon molecules of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P), it is also produced by the Calvin in photosynthesis process.

3-the two G3P molecules are oxidized and each of them receive a phosphate group, the product of this step is two molecules of a new three carbon compounds.
The oxidation of (G3P) is accompanied by the reduction of 2 molecules of nicotinamide adenine di nucleotide (NAD+) to NADH.
NAD+ is similar to NADH 

4-the phosphate group which added in step (1) and (3) are removed from the three carbon compound formed in step three, this reaction produces two molecules of ADP to make a molecule of ATP, because the total of four phosphate groups were added in step one and three four molecules of ATP are produced.

Photosynthesis
-is the process that converts solar energy into chemical energy
Directly or indirectly, photosynthesis nourishes almost the entire living world

-Autotrophs sustain themselves without eating anything derived from other organisms
-Autotrophs are the producers of the biosphere, producing organic molecules from CO2 and other inorganic molecules
-Almost all plants are photoautotrophs, using the energy of sunlight to make organic molecules from H2O and CO2
-Photosynthesis occurs in plants, algae, certain other protists, and some prokaryotes
-These organisms feed not only themselves but also most of the living world

-Heterotrophs obtain their organic material from other organisms
-Heterotrophs are the consumers of the biosphere
-Almost all heterotrophs, including humans, depend on photoautotrophs for food and O2

-Chloroplasts are structurally similar to and likely evolved from photosynthetic bacteria 
-The structural organization of these cells allows for the chemical reactions of photosynthesis
-Leaves are the major locations of photosynthesis
-Their green color is from chlorophyll, the green pigment within chloroplasts
-Light energy absorbed by chlorophyll drives the synthesis of organic molecules in the chloroplast
-CO2 enters and O2 exits the leaf through microscopic pores called stomata
-Chloroplasts are found mainly in cells of the mesophyll, the interior tissue of the leaf
-A typical mesophyll cell has 30–40 chloroplasts
-The chlorophyll is in the membranes of thylakoids (connected sacs in the chloroplast); thylakoids may be stacked in columns called grana
-Chloroplasts also contain stroma, a dense fluid
