Chapter 8 / 6 short lessons
Photosynthesis and respiration
Track matter and energy through the required stages without memorising unnecessary pathway intermediates or ATP totals.
H1 Biology / 8876 / 2027 syllabus
What do you think?
Does light-independent mean that carbohydrate production can continue indefinitely without light?
Lessons
0 of 6 marked as readCapture light and make usable chemical energy
Locate photosynthesis and identify light-dependent inputs, outputs and energy conversion.
About 5 minUse carbon dioxide to build carbohydrate
Identify light-independent inputs and outputs and explain storage of captured energy in carbohydrate.
About 5 minBegin respiration in the cytoplasm
Identify glycolysis location, initial substrate and final products under aerobic conditions.
About 5 minRelease carbon dioxide and reduce carriers
Identify initial reactants, final products and mitochondrial locations of the link reaction and Krebs cycle.
About 6 minUse oxygen at the end of electron transfer
Identify oxidative-phosphorylation inputs, products and mitochondrial location.
About 5 minKeep glycolysis going without oxygen
Identify anaerobic reactants and products and compare energy release with aerobic respiration.
About 5 minWhat you will be able to do
- Identify inputs and outputs of both photosynthetic stages.
- Locate and connect the four aerobic respiration stages.
- Compare anaerobic products in yeast and muscle with aerobic energy release.
