1. Mitochondria and Chloroplasts Energy powerhouses Maddie Hughes, Izzie Gall, Erin Semple, Alex Capaldo, Alex Park

2. Mitochondria

3. Power centers of a cell o Plant or animal Provide energy for the cell o Motion o Division o Secretion o Contraction Present in all living cells More concentrated in muscle cells The reason animals require oxygen

4. Mitochondria: Structure Double membrane o Outer membrane  Simple phospholipid bilayer  Easy for molecules like ATP or sugar to penetrate  Smooth  Separates inner membrane space from vacuole o Inner membrane  Cristae greatly increase the membrane's surface area  Site of ATP production from oxygen and sugar  Krebs/citric acid cycle

5. Mitochondria: Structure Non-membrane spaces o Intermembrane space  Between outer and inner membranes  Contains energy before it is released to the cytoplasm/vacuole  Contains oxygen, water, CO 2 on their way to cristae o Matrix  Within cristae  Contains enzymes used during Krebs cycle

6. Chloroplasts

7. Aid the mitochondria in energy production o Plant cells only Contain chlorophyll o Absorbs light o Responsible for green coloration Responsible for creation of oxygen

8. Chloroplasts: Structure Double membrane o Outer membrane  Simple phospholipid bilayer  Easy for molecules like ATP or sugar to penetrate  Smooth o Inner membrane  Regulates substances entering chloroplast  Smooth Thylakoids  Location of photosynthesis (the "light" reactions)  Membrane disks  Equivalent of mitochondrial cristae  Arranged in grana (stacks)

9. Chloroplasts: Structure Non-membrane spaces o Stroma  Space between thylakoid disks  Site of "dark" reactions of photosynthesis  Contains the enzymes required for these reactions

10. Chloroplasts Create energy for the cell o Convert light into ATP Plant cells only Create O 2 and carbs Double membrane Krebs cycle o Takes place on thylakoids, separate from membranes Mitochondria Create energy for the cell o Convert food energy into ATP Plant and animal cells Consume O 2 and carbs Double membrane Calvin cycle o Takes place on cristae, identical to the inner membrane o
