of the sun through light and use it to create sugars. Photophosphorylation is the first step of photosynthesis and occurs in the chloroplast. Light is captured by light harvesting complexes. The light excites electrons which excite surronding electrons through resonance induction and excite special pairs of electrons. These electrons help pump protons into the chloroplast lumen creating a proton gradient. Photosystem I also absorbs light and excites electrons which are used to pump more protons. ATPsynthase

will be larger. Plants can absorb and use light energy because they have a green pigment‚ chlorophyll‚ contained in the chloroplasts in some of their cells. Chlorophyll allows the energy in sunlight to drive chemical reactions. Chloroplasts act as a energy transducers‚ converting light energy into chemical energy. So as the plant has more light the chlorophyll inside the chloroplasts can react faster absorbing in more light for food and energy. The equation for photosynthesis can help to predict the

world. They grow in several habitats (in soil‚ in water‚ in the Earth’s crust‚ etc.). The second kind of cell is the eukaryotic cell. These cells contain a nucleus as well as nucleus bond organelles (for example; Golgi apparatus‚ mitochondria‚ chloroplasts‚ etc.). Eukaryotes cells exists in four kingdoms; fungi‚ protists‚ animals and plants. Funguses are decomposers and are vital for cycling nutrients in the environment. Animals and plants differ in cell

The eukaryotic structure consists of the following organelle which includes mitochondria‚ chloroplast‚ the endoplasmic reticulum‚ the Golgi apparatus‚ lysosomes and nucleus. These organelles perform a specific function that help the cell survive. The organelles are separated from the rest of the cellular space by a membrane; it is like having a

cells are as follows: Plant cells contain cell structures like cell wall‚ plastids‚ and large vacuoles. Cell wall provide plant cells rigidity and structural support and cell to cell interaction. Plastids help in storage of plant products. Chloroplasts aid in carrying out the process of photosynthesis to produce food for the plants. Vacuoles are water-filled‚ membrane bound organelles which stores useful materials. Plants have specialized cells in order to perform certain functions for the

Photosynthesis is process by which green plants and certain other organisms use the energy of light to convert carbon dioxide and water into the simple sugar glucose. In so doing‚ photosynthesis provides the basic energy source for virtually all organisms. An extremely important byproduct of photosynthesis is oxygen‚ on which most organisms depend. Photosynthesis occurs in green plants‚ seaweeds‚ algae‚ and certain bacteria. These organisms are veritable sugar factories‚ producing millions of

ANIMAL CELL PROJECT By: Jonathan Everett Science 2nd Ms. Thompson January 11‚ 2013 Have you ever heard of an animal cell? Well‚ I you haven’t it is a cell that is found in an animal that consist of multiple organelles. Each organelle has a special job that helps the cell function. This paper will help describe each organelle in the animal cell. 1. Endoplasmic Reticulum The Endoplasmic Reticulum is found in both the plant and animal

Introduction: On this Earth‚ every living species needs energy to live. Energy is a product of photosynthesis‚ which is the process that converts energy in sunlight to chemical forms of energy that can be used by biological systems2. Many organisms are not able to use the energy obtained from sunlight directly; however‚ plants are able to use this energy and convert it into chemical energy by converting CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water) to organic materials3.
