Plant Organs & Organ Systems --roots, stems, leaves Vascular Plant Organs -primary growth *chloroplasts in some green stems but PRIMARILY in the leaves *mitochondria- in all cells Vegetative Parts -roots, stems, leaves -for maintainance of individual, growth -somatic cells Reproductive Parts -flowers, fruits, seeds -maintainance of species *some no flowers, only spores ~PIC1 Root -anchors the plant -absorbs water and minerals -root hairs -brown, white, red, black -no green (few exceptions: orchids) -shape: cylindrical -produce hormones, some for storage ~PIC2 Root Systems ~PIC3 Radicle -first that grows out in germination -will become the primary root *2nd, 3rd, 4th.. root- ?lateral roots? ~PIC4 Patterns of Root Growth Taproot system

ENERGY Physiology Function:worklive -grows(mitosis) -reproduce(meiosis+fertilization) -metabolism(photosynthesis and respiration) -inheritance(generation) Definition of Energy 2 Laws of Energy: 1.Conservation of Energy- energy is neither created nor destroyed, only transformed(1st law) *forms of energy: solar, potential, mechanical 2.Entropy- during the transformation of energy, some energy become disordered & becomes heat(2nd law) *heat: ?disordered energy? Coupled Reactions and Chemical Bonds *?coupled?: with partner *coupled reactions= redox reactions 1.Reduction- gains electrons -creates chemical bond -stores energy in molecule -Photosynthesis(anabolic) 2.Oxidation-loses electrons

Conservation of Energy Kevin D. Edgerton Objective: The objective of this experiment is to study the law of conservation of energy and see how the conservation of energy equation is used. . Data and Calculations: Part I: Bouncing Ball Mass of Ball 417.2g Ranger to floor distances 0.771m 0.778m 0.765m 0.769m 0.775m Average 0.7716m The Total Energy drops to near zero when the ball hits the ground. It does not violate the law of conservation of energy because the energy lost in the collision with the ground is not accounted for by the measurements of potential and kinetic energy. Because of this, the total energy decreases after each bounce. With a lighter ball there may be less energy lost during the collisions.

STUDY GUIDE FOR CELLULAR RESPIRATION Cellular Respiration: Transfer of energy from organic compounds (especially GLUCOSE) to ATP. AEROBIC: cellular respiration WITH O2 ANEROBIC: cellular respiration WITHOUT O2 TWO STAGES OF CELLULAR RESPIRATION: STAGE 1: Glucose is converted to Pyruvate producing small amounts of ATP and NADH. STAGE 2: If O2, then: PYR and NADH make lots of ATP; if no O2, then Lactate or Ethanol and CO2 are produced. SEE FIGURE 10 FROM PAGE 104 IIN THE TEXTBOOK.
