CONCEPT MAP

Key Concepts: Key Vocabulary:

Organic/Inorganic

Lipid

Protein

Nucleic Acid

Photosynthesis

Chloroplasts

ATP

Cellular Respiration

Mitochondria

Enzyme/Catalyst

As nutrients enter a cell, they will be used to synthesize necessary compounds.

Photosynthesis is a connection between the sun’s energy and energy necessary for life.

Topic:

Biochemistry

Cell. Respiration releases energy in molecules made by photosynthesis (stored in ATP molecules)

Enzymes facilitate biochemical reactions

Examples:

Molecular models to construct simple organic molecules

Outlining CHEM. RANS. Of CELL. RESP. and Photosynthesis (see connection between)

Effects of TEMP. on enzyme activity lab.

Enduring Understanding (s): __Process of Photosynthesis captures light energy and transforms energy into usable bond energy of organic molecules. Cellular respiration releases chemical bond energy and stores it in ATP molecules, which are easily used for cell activities. _______________________________________________

Essential Question (s): _How do we get the energy we need to live? Why is sunlight so important To Non- photosynthetic plants? Why can a high fever cause death? What are necessary parts of a healthy diet? ______________________________________________________
