Unit 4 Cell Resp. & Photosynthesis
Learning Targets
"Energy is neither created nor destroyed, only changed in form." Conservation of Energy.
Learning targets written in italics pertain to Honors Biology students.
#1. How do cells use metabolic pathways to provide energy?
ATP, Enzymes and Buffers
A. I can list the basic components of an ATP molecule and draw them properly connected. I can demonstrate how an
ATP molecule (serves as an energy shuttle in the cell. / is made and broken down for energy.)
b. I can use a graph to show how enzymes affect the energy of activation needed for metabolism during exergonic and
endergonic chemical reactions.
c. I can explain the importance of buffers to the enzymes that catalyze metabolism.
d. I can demonstrate how metabolism occurs as a series of coupled reactions by drawing a labeled diagram.
Vocabulary: anabolic, catabolic, exergonic, endergonic, +H, -H, adenosine triphosphate, activation energy,
buffers, enzymes, optimal conditions, coupled reactions.
Glycolysis and Fermentation
E. I can state the overall goal of fermentation (anaerobic respiration) and where it occurs; I can discuss the different
types of anaerobic respiration.
Vocabulary: metabolic pathway, glycolysis, lactic acid fermentation, alcohol fermentation, electron carrier
(NAD+)
Cellular Respiration
F. I can state the overall goal of aerobic cell respiration, the organelle in which it occurs, and its stages.
G. I can list the beginning and ending molecules and their roles for each of the three stages of cellular respiration.
Vocabulary: cellular respiration, photosynthesis, electron transport chain, hydrogen ion gradient, ATP-synthase.
Photosynthesis
H. I can state the overall goal of photosynthesis, the organelle in which it occurs, and its two main stages.
I. I can list the beginning and ending molecules and their roles for each of the two stages of photosynthesis.
Summary
J. I can compare and contrast photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
K. I can explain how cellular respiration and photosynthesis convert energy while conserving matter.
l. I can trace the path of energy (energized e- & H+ gradient) through metabolism.
m. I can explain how the anatomy of a mitochondrion and a chloroplast allows them to function.
#2. How are cellular respiration and photosynthesis interdependent?
A. I can use a model to explain how cellular respiration and photosynthesis are examples of interdependence.
#3. I can describe the evolutionary significance of glycolysis, fermentation, photosynthesis and cellular respiration.
a. I can explain why life would probably NOT have evolved had free oxygen (O2) been present in the atmosphere.
b. I can describe the first life on the planet, how it harnessed energy and I can give an example of a modern analog.
c. I can provide evidence to support the claim that glycolysis is an evolutionary relic.
d. I can compare the amount of ATP produced by anaerobic respiration with that of aerobic respiration and infer the
impact this adaptive advantage had on life after aerobic respiration evolved.
e. I can explain and provide evidence for the endosymbiotic theory for the evolution of mitochondria and chloroplasts.
