Unit 6 - Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration



Unit 6 - Photosynthesis and Cellular RespirationMCAS Frameworks: This unit addresses the following MA State Frameworks in Biology:2.4 Identify the reactants, products, and basic purposes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Explain the interrelated nature of photosynthesis and cellular respiration in the cells of photosynthetic organisms.2.5 Explain the important role that ATP serves in metabolism.SIS1.Make observations, raise questions, and formulate hypotheses.SIS2.Design and conduct scientific investigations.SIS3.Analyze and interpret results of scientific investigations.municate and apply the results of scientific investigations.Big IdeasThe transfer of energy studied on an ecological level can be understood on a molecular level. Energy transfer from plants to animals can be interpreted as a series of chemical reactions. Essential QuestionsHow are the interrelated reactions of photosynthesis and cellular respiration related to energy flow through an ecosystem?Unit 6 - Photosynthesis and Cellular RespirationText Reading: Chapters 8 and 9Objectives: Upon completion of this unit, you should be able to:Topic 1: Energy origins (8-1)Compare and contrast heterotrophs and autotrophs (specifically where each gets its food).Draw and describe the three parts of an ATP molecule. Use the analogy of a battery to explain how energy is stored in and released from ATP. Compare the amounts of energy stored by ATP and glucose. Which compound is used by the cell as an immediate source of energy?Topic 2: Photosynthesis overview (8-2)Explain the experiments of van Helmont, Priestley, and Ingenhousz and what they showed about the way plants grow.State and explain the chemical equation that summarizes photosynthesis.Define pigment and chlorophyll. Describe the roles of pigments, chlorophyll and light in ic 3: Photosynthesis details (8-3)Draw and label a diagram of the chloroplast, including the location and structure of the stroma, grana, thylakoids, and photosystems.Explain the job of an electron carrier, specifically mention NADP+.Draw and label a simple diagram of the process of photosynthesis, labeling inputs (what gets used) and outputs (what gets produced) at each stage.Identify the factors affecting the rate of ic 4: Cellular Respiration (9-1, 9-2)State and explain the chemical equation that summarizes cellular respiration.Draw and label a diagram of the mitochondrion.Draw and label a simple diagram of the process of cellular respiration, labeling inputs and outputs at each stage and total energy molecules created.Describe the two main types of anaerobic respiration (fermentation), including under what conditions each occurs.Identify the three pathways the body uses to release energy during pare and contrast photosynthesis and cellular respiration.Key Terms/Concepts:PhotosynthesisCellular respirationAutotrophGlycolysisHeterotrophMitochondrionAdenosine triphosphate (ATP)Pyruvic acid (pyruvate)Adenosine diphosphate (ADP)AerobicAutotrophAnaerobicVan HelmontAcetyl-CoAPriestleyElectron transport chain (respiration)Jan IngenhouszNAD+PigmentNADHPhotosynthesisFAD2+ChlorophyllFADH2ChloroplastKrebs cycleThylakoidAlcoholic fermentationGranumLactic acid fermentationStromaPhotosystemElectron carrierNADP+Photosystem INADPHElectron Transport Chain (photosynthesis)Light-dependent reactionsCalvin CyclePhotosystem IILight-independent reactionsAssessment EvidenceProject: Inquiry based laboratory: PhotosynthesisLab: Clothespin Olympics (anaerobic respiration)Product: Written lab reportAssessment: Unit quizAssessment: Unit testObservation: Teacher observation and feedbackLearning Plan Period 5DayIn Class ActivityHomeworkThur 1/26A dayReview Mid year examObjectives 1-5Fri 1/27B dayNo classMon 1/30C dayReview Autotrophs/HeterotrophsATP StructureTues 1/31D dayLeaf StructureStart Light Dependent ReactionObjectives 6-10Wed 2/1E dayLight Dependent ReactionObj 11-13Thur 2/2F dayCalvin CycleObj 14-16Fri 2/3A dayPhotosynthesis LabFinish labMon 2/4B dayNo classTue 2/5C dayDiscuss Photosynthesis LabC4 and CAM plantsWed 2/6D dayFactors Affecting PhotosynthesisChemosynthesisObj 17-20Thur 2/7E dayMitochondriaIntro to Cell RespirationObj 21-22Fri 2/8F dayGlycolysis and FermentationObj 23-26Mon 2/11A dayKrebs CycleElectron Transport ChainObj 27-31Tue 2/12B dayNo classWed 2/13C dayRelationship between Photosynthesis and Cell Resp.Exercise and Cell RespirationThur 2/14D dayReviewFri 2/15E dayUnit examAssessment EvidenceProject: Inquiry based laboratory: PhotosynthesisLab: Clothespin Olympics (anaerobic respiration)Product: Written lab reportAssessment: Unit quizAssessment: Unit testObservation: Teacher observation and feedbackLearning Plan Period 6DayIn Class ActivityHomeworkThur 1/26A dayNo classFri 1/27B dayReview Mid year examObjectives 1-5Mon 1/30C dayReview Autotrophs/HeterotrophsATP StructureObjectives 6-10Tues 1/31D dayLeaf StructureStart Light Dependent ReactionObj 11-13Wed 2/1E dayLight Dependent ReactionThur 2/2F dayCalvin CycleObj 14-16Fri 2/3A dayNo classMon 2/4B dayPhotosynthesis LabFinish labTue 2/5C dayDiscuss Photosynthesis LabC4 and CAM plantsWed 2/6D dayFactors Affecting PhotosynthesisChemosynthesisObj 17-20Thur 2/7E dayMitochondriaIntro to Cell RespirationObj 21-22Fri 2/8F day.
