1.1 - Metabolism

Learning goals

What is metabolism?

What is decomposition and respiration?

Language goals

Photosynthesis

Carbon dioxide

Glucose

Metabolism

Chloroplasts

Cell organelles

Mitochondria

Which organisms carry out photosynthesis?

1. Animals
2. Fungi
3. Plants
4. All bacteria

Photosynthesis

All plants and algae, some bacteria

Where does energy usually come from?

Chloroplasts

respiration - when a cell burns glucose for energy 

Glucose + Oxygen --> Carbon dioxide + water + 'energy'  

Glucose + O2 --> CO2 + H2O + 'energy'  

What do we use this energy for?

Mitochondria - Where metabolism happens

Summarize today's knowledge

We are going to draw the pathway of glucose.  

Show the way from plant  -->  your body (metabolism).
This drawing includes the words: 

photosynthesis - chloroplast - respiration - mitochondria  - glucose - metabolism

HINT: start by drawing the sun, a leaf and a person

Work in groups of 2-3, you are allowed to discuss calmly for 10 mins 

Done? start on your homework
