6. Review Chemosythesis What is chemosynthesis?
Chemosynthesis is used when sunlight is not available.
What happens during chemosynthesis?
During chemosynthesis, organisms use inorganic substances in place of sunlight to make sugar and oxygen.
What is the equation for chemosynthesis?
Inorganic substances + water+ carbon dioxide
Oxygen + sugar

7. What organisms do chemosynthesis?
Organisms that do not receive sunlight HAVE to do chemosynthesis in order to make food for themselves (bacteria or deep water organisms).

8. Review Cellular Respiration Cellular Respiration
is just the opposite of photosynthesis!
C6H12O6 + O2 → ATP + CO2 + H2O
respiration
CO2 + H2O + light → C6H12O6 + O2
photosynthesis

(what’s needed)

10. Review Cellular Respiration Important facts for marine biologist:
All living organisms break down sugars to get energy.
This is called cellular respiration.
What is glucose again?
SUGAR!!

11. Energy Notes First, copy the questions (Cornell Note Style)
Make sure you have the right answer before continuing.
Record the correct answer on the right hand side.
There are only 13 questions but you must understand/remember the material in every question!

12. Energy Unit Review Questions
What process releases energy from sugar?
What process absorbs energy from the sun to make sugar (food for the plant)?
Where does photosynthesis happen in the cell?
Where does cellular respiration happen in the cell?
Cellular
Respiration!
Photosynthesis
Chloroplast
Mitochondria

13. Energy Unit Review Questions
5. What is the equation for cellular respiration?
What is the equation for photosynthesis?
What is chemosynthesis?
Explain transpiration and how water moves through a plant.
O2+Sugar
CO2+H2O+ATP ENERGY
CO2+H20+SUN ENERGY
O2+Sugar
HAPPENS WITHOUT LIGHT!!!
Organisms use inorganic substances to make sugar and oxygen
Water moves in through the roots and evaporates through the leaves into the air.

14. Energy Unit Review Questions
What happens to the nitrogen in organisms when they die?
What is ATP?
Where in the cell is energy produced (ATP)?
Where in the cell is energy absorbed?
They decompose and the nitrogen goes back into the ground for plants to use.
Energy molecule
Mitochondria
Chloroplast

15. Energy Unit Review Questions
13. Explain how cellular respiration and photosynthesis make a cycle.
Energy is cycled between photosynthesis and cellular respiration.

16. Dissolved Oxygen Dissolved Oxygen Video
Use the following words to explain WHY marine organisms will suffer from low oxygen levels in the water:
Cellular respiration
Reactants
Products
Oxygen
Carbon dioxide
Water
Energy (ATP)
Energy (sunlight)

17. Dissolved Oxygen and Fertilizers (Run Off)
Fertilizers video
After the video, please write a short summary of how fertilizers affect the oxygen levels in the water.

18. Chemosynthesis Practice
Use the following HSA questions to practice our knowledge of energy transfer.

19. #1. Some types of bacteria live deep in the ocean where sunlight cannot reach. These bacteria use the energy stored in inorganic molecules to make sugars (HSA 2007).
Which of these processes do the bacteria use to produce sugars?
photosynthesis
chemosynthesis
aerobic respiration
nitrogen fixation

20. #2. Some bacteria live in habitats without light
#2. Some bacteria live in habitats without light. They produce their own food using inorganic substances from the environment.
Which of these terms best describes this process?
photosynthesis
cellular respiration
binary fission
chemosynthesis

21. #3. In deep ocean trenches, bacteria produce organic materials from inorganic compounds through the process of
respiration
decomposition
photosynthesis
chemosynthesis

22. Phytoplankton and Zooplankton
Watch video that discusses phytoplankton, zooplankton.
What are phytoplankton?
Why are they called primary producers?
What are zooplankton?
What do zooplankton eat?
Draw a food web with phytoplankton and zoo plankton.
Watch video that discusses phytoplankton, zooplankton.
What are phytoplankton?
*Phytoplankton are tiny plants in the water.
Why are they called primary producers?
*They are called primary producers because they provide oxygen to the whole food web including us!
What are zooplankton?
*Little animals=zoo=animals
What do zooplankton eat?
*zooplankton feed on the phytoplankton
Draw a food web with phytoplankton and zoo plankton.
*phytoplanktonzooplankton

23. Eutrophication Watch video on eutrophication. What is algal bloom?
What causes oxygen to be used up?
After phytoplankton dies, what happens?
What consumes the decomposing algae?
Who uses up all the oxygen in the water?
How do the numbers of these micro organisms effect the oxygen levels in the water?
What is eutrophication?
Watch video on eutrophication.
What is algal bloom?
*When algae grows a lot.
After phytoplankton dies, what happens?
*Phytoplankton sink to the bottom where they decompose. They are then broken down by zooplankton or little animals (think zoo=animals)
What causes oxygen to be used up?
*Oxygen is used up by the zooplankton as they do cellular respiration.
What consumes the decomposing algae?
*Decomposing algae is eaten up by the zooplankton.
Who uses up all the oxygen in the water?
*The zooplankton
How do the numbers of these micro organisms effect the oxygen levels in the water?
*Too much algae=too much zooplankton which uses up all the oxygen
What is eutrophication?
*Low oxygen in the water causes fish to die.

24. Independent Research Read Oxygen in the Water on page 372.
Summarize the reading. Make sure to answer the following questions in your writing:
How is oxygen produced?
What process requires the use of oxygen?
What is dissolved oxygen?
How do marine organisms take in oxygen?
