Part A Match the terms below with the correct description Chlorophyll Chloroplast Electromagnetic spectrum Electron transport chain Grana Light-dependant reactions
Light-independent reactions Photon Photosynthesis Photosystem Stroma Thylakoid
a. __________________ packet of solar energy b. __________________energy-capturing portion of photosynthesis that takes place in thylakoid
membranes of chloroplasts and cannot proceed without solar energy, it produces ATP and NADPH c. __________________green pigment that absorbs solar energy and is important in photosynthesis d. __________________ large, central compartment in a chloroplast that is fluid filled and contains
enzymes used in photosynthesis e. __________________ membrane-bounded organelle with chlorophyll – containing membranous
thylakoids; where photosynthesis takes place f. __________________Photosynthetic unit where solar energy is absorbed and high-energy electrons are
generated; contains a pigment complex and an electron acceptor g. __________________Passage of electrons along a series of carrier molecules form a higher to a lower
energy level; the energy released is used for the synthesis of ATP. h. __________________Process usually occurring within chloroplasts whereby chlorophyll traps solar
energy and carbon dioxide is reduced to a carbohydrate. i. __________________ Series of photosynthetic reactions in which carbon dioxide is fixed and reduced
in the chloroplast. j. __________________Synthesis portion of photosynthesis that takes place in the stroma of chloroplasts
and does not directly require solar energy; it uses the products of the light dependant reactions to reduce carbon dioxide to a carbohydrate
Part B Answer the following questions 1. Explain the difference between autotrophs and heterotrophs. Give two examples of each. 2. Below draw a molecule of ATP. Label: ADP, adenosine, adenine, ribose, phosphate groups, chemical bond that would be broken if energy needed to be released.

Cell Communication
Ch. 11
Section 11.1
Overview• Cell-to-cell communication is absolutely
essential for multicellular organisms Trillions of cells in a human body - there
must be a way to coordinate activities
Overview• Communication
is also important in unicellular organisms
Overview• Biologists have discovered
universal mechanisms of cell communication
• The same small set of cell signaling processes show up across all life forms More evidence for the More evidence for the
interrelatedness of all living interrelatedness of all living thingsthings
Overview• Cells most often
communicate by using chemical signals
Some questions to explore
1. What messages are passed from cell to cell?
2. How do cells respond to these messages?
An example of Cell Communication in microbes
• Microbes like yeast talk about sex
• Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast) identify potential mates using chemical signals
Yeast Sex
• There are 2 “sexes” or mating types a - secretes “a” factor - secretes “” factor
These factors bind to receptor proteins on the other mating type
Yeast Sex
• Once the mating factors have bound to the receptors the 2 cells grow toward each other
• The 2 cells fuse, or mate, to form an a/ cell Contains genes of
both cells Advantage for future
“offspring” since have more genetic resources
CRITICAL VOCAB!!
• Transduction - the conversion of a signal from outside the cell into a form that can bring about a specific cell response
Message from outside the cell
Transduction to another “form”
Cell response
Back to yeast sex…
• Q: So how does the attachment of the signal molecule on the surface of the yeast cell get transduced into a form that causes the cells to fuse?
• A: by a signal transduction pathway
CRITICAL VOCAB!!
• Signal transduction pathway - a process by which a signal on the cell’s surface is converted into a specific cell response
Quick Think
•Discuss with a neighbor how yeast cells communicate in order to mate
With your silly word buddy
Signal Transduction Pathways
• They are very similar in yeast and animal cells Evidence for a common ancestor
• Plants and bacteria have similar pathways
• Evidence suggests a prokaryotic ancestor that was capable of signaling - this organism was “adopted” for use in single cell eukaryotes and multicellular organisms (similar to the “adoption” of chloroplasts and mitochondria)
Cell Communication in multicellular organisms
• Communication in multicellular organisms usually involves releasing signaling molecules that target other cells, as we saw in the yeast
Direct Contact between cells
• Recall from Ch. 6 & 7 that cells may have junctions that connect adjacent cells
Direct Contact between cells
• With intercellular junctions, substances dissolved in the cytosol of one cell can freely pass into the adjacent cell
• Animal cells may communicate via direct contact between membrane surface molecules
• Most often used in development of the embryo and during the immune response
Local contact
• Signaling cell may Signaling cell may secrete messenger secrete messenger moleculesmolecules
• These chemical messenges may travel only a short distance and influence cells only in the local vicinity • These chemicals are
called local regulators
CRITICAL VOCAB!!
• Local regulators - a chemical messenger that influences cells in the vicinity
Example of a local regulator
• Growth factors in animals - stimulate nearby target cells to grow and divide
• Many nearby target cells can receive and respond to a local regulator that is secreted by just one messenger cell
This is called paracrine signaling
More specialized local signaling
• Synaptic signaling - occurs in nerve cells
• Nerve cell releases a neurotransmitter
• It diffuses across the synapse (small gap between 2 neurons)
• Neurotransmitter stimulates the target cell
• Can also be considered long distance signaling because message is passed from neuron to neuron over a long distance
CRITCAL VOCAB!!
• Paracrine signaling - when numerous cells simultaneously receive and respond to growth factors produced by a single cell in their vicinity
• Synaptic signaling - when a nerve cell releases neurotransmitters into a synapse, stimulating the target cell
Local signaling in plants
• This is not well understood yet
• Must be different somehow from animals due to presence of cell walls in plants
Quick Think
•With a neighbor, describe paracrine signaling and give an example of it
With your TV show buddy
Long distance signaling
• Both plants & animals use hormones for long distance signaling
• In animals - endocrine cells release hormones into circulatory system - hormones travel to other parts of the body
• In plants - hormones called growth regulators - may travel in vessels, may travel cell to cell, may travel through the air by diffusion
Long distance signaling
• Chemical messengers vary
• Plant hormone ethylene - very small (C2H4) - makes fruit ripen - can pass through cell walls
• Animal hormone insulin - 1000s of atoms big - regulates blood sugar - travels in blood stream
Quick Think
• Discuss with a neighbor how plant and animal cells carry out long distance signaling.
• Explain why nerve cells provide an example of both local and long distance signaling With your
street buddy
What happens when a cell encounters a signal?
• The signal must be recognized by the target cell Target cells have specific receptor molecules
on their cell membranes
• The information in the chemical signal must be changed into another form - Transduced - inside the cell before the cell can respond
There are 3 stages of cell signaling
1. Reception - target cell receives chemical signal
2. Transduction - conversion of the signal to a form that brings about a specific cell response
3. Response - the transduced signal finally brings about a cell response
Quick Think
• Discuss with a neighbor:
• Summarize today’s lecture in no more than 3 sentences.
