Your creature Background knowledge: The world is changing dramatically. In the next 100 years the environment will be:

Note: In water and in space you will need to consider gravity and how that changes your creature of tomorrow. Think about different pressure pressing upon your creature and how this will change the look of your creature, it’s bones and how its fluids move throughout your creature.

Purpose: Demonstrate what you know about the entire unit through the creation of a creature.

1) You will capture the structure and function of all the unit areas in the graphic organizers provided. This organized knowledge will provide support when creating your creature.

2) You will chose one of the three provided environments above and reflect carefully on everything you have been taught. How can you create a creature to survive in the environment? What will they need from the following unit topics to survive; adaptations, energy, photosynthesis, cellular respiration, cells, cellular function/structure, organelles, organization of life (from atoms to organs to systems to life), human body systems, and the interdependent relationship of every area in order to be alive in your chosen environment? (You are the creator so you can mix and match anything within the unit to make your superior being.)

3) Create your creature of tomorrow.

4) Write about your creature’s unique structures and functions and why it is able to survive in your chosen environment.

5) Present your creature to a small group and possibly the entire class.

Exit: Describe some adaptations that can be harmful to humans and health.

PhotosythesisPhotosynthesis converts massive amount of Sunlight into electrical and then chemical energy. The input is carbon dioxide (CO2), water (H2O), minerals and light, and the output is carbohydrates (food) that we need for our nourishment, and oxygen that we need to breathe

Light https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUmT24R8CyA

Energy: Energy can be found in a number of different forms. It can be chemical energy, electrical energy, heat (thermal energy), light (radiant energy), mechanical energy, and nuclear energy

In physical science, energy means the ability to do work. Work means a change in position, speed, state, or form of matter. Therefore, energy is the capacity to change matter.

light is energy

Atoms and molecules (which are simply bound collections of two or more atoms) can absorb light (= energy!). Flashlight demo Likewise, infrared light (= heat = energy!) wouldn't do any good in heating up your home in the winter if it didn't get absorbed by matter. Higher energy light photons, like X-rays, tend to want to plow through more matter before they get absorbed. (Hence, their use in medical imaging: they can pass through your "soft" tissue, but are more readily absorbed in your bones, which are denser.) How and why do photons get absorbed by matter?

The process of photosynthesis involves two stages of chemical reactions

Light-dependent ReactionsThis is the first stage of the photosynthetic process. These reactions take place in the presence of sunlight, and use light energy from the sun to produce ATP molecules and other molecules known as NADPH. These molecules are used as the energy source to carry out the reactions in the next stage of photosynthesis.

Light-independent Reactions (Calvin Cycle)In this stage, energy-containing sugar molecules are synthesized. The ATP and NADPH produced in stage I are used to fuel the reactions in this stage. Here, CO2 molecules are broken down and converted into sugars and other compounds. The Calvin Cycle is repeated twice in order to yield one molecule of glucose.Read more at Buzzle: http://www.buzzle.com/articles/photosynthesis-and-cellular-respiration.html

Since the absorbed photon had a specific energy, this absorption occurs at a specific wavelength in the spectrum

Leaf Some organisms, such as plants, can trap the energy in sunlight through photosynthesis) and store it in the chemical bonds of carbohydrate molecules

The principal carbohydrate formed through photosynthesis is glucose.

Other types of organisms, such as animals, fungi, many protozoa, and a large portion of bacteria, are unable to perform this process. Therefore, these organisms must rely on the carbohydrates formed in plants to obtain the energy necessary for their metabolic processes.

Cells take the carbohydrates into their cytoplasm, and through a complex series of metabolic processes, they break down the carbohydrates and release the energy

In other words:

Photosynthesis:• Photosynthesis is the process by which the energy of sunlight is converted

into the energy of glucose

Steps in photosynthesis 1- light hits leaf

2- hits chloroplasts

3- water (h2o) is present because of water from roots carry it to viens

4- carbon dioxide enters through stomata (the thing that decides what enters/leaves)

5-chemical reaction with carbon dioxide, water, and chlorophyll

6- oxygen passes through leaf and leaf makes glucose (extra stored)

7- mitochondria- breaks down oxygen and glucose for energy and the carbon dioxide is released

8- in animals mitochondria takes glucose and combines it with oxygen=energy Carbon taken in blood stream to be exhaled

What is photosynthesis?

What are the important parts?

What is the chemical formula of photosynthesis?

PHOTOSYNTHESIS

Autotrophic Process: Plants and plant-like organisms make their energy (glucose) from sunlight.

Stored as carbohydrate in their bodies. 6CO2 + 6H2O + sunlight C6H12O6 + 6O2

Plants use sunlight to turn water and carbon dioxide into glucose. Glucose is a kind of sugar.

Plants use glucose as food for energy and as a building block for growing.

Autotrophs make glucose and heterotrophs are consumers of it.

Photo-synthesismeans "putting together with light."

Photosynthesis- Light energy converted to chemical energy of organic compounds (carbs)

Cellular Respiration- Organic compounds broken down to create ATP (energy)

Autotrophs & Heterotrophs

Cellular respiration is the process by which the chemical energy of "food" molecules is released and partially captured in the form of ATP. Carbohydrates, fats, and proteins can all be used as fuels in cellular respiration, but glucose is most commonly used as an example to examine the reactions and pathways involved.
