The Carbon Cycle
❑ Carbon is the key element of all organic compounds (think macromolecules).
❑ All of the carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids that compose all living
things contain atoms of carbon.
❑ In order to build new organic compounds for living cells, there must be a constant
and steady supply of available carbon.
❑ photosynthesis and cellular respriation form the basis of the carbon cycle.
❑ Carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere by plants and used to build
molecules of glucose (photosynthesis).
❑ Cellular respiration (animals, plants, fungi, and protists) returns carbon dioxide
back to the atmosphere.
❑ There are other ways that carbon moves through an ecosystem:
• Geochemical processes, such as erosion and volcanic activity, release carbon
dioxide to the atmosphere and oceans.
• Biogeochemical processes cause dead organisms to decayunder pressure;
their bodies are converted into fossil fuels__. This stores carbon underground.
• Human activities, such as mining, cutting and burning forests, and burning
fossil fuels, release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

Claim: Juan is correct that plants
primarily get the materials they need
for growth from the air and water.
Evidence:
- Plants take in carbon dioxide (a
primary component of glucose)
from the air through their
stomata.
- Water absorbed by the roots is
essential for photosynthesis and
transporting nutrients
- Soil provides some minerals and
nutrients like nitrogen,
phosphorus, and potassium,
which are important but are
only a small fraction of the
plant's overall biomass.
Reasoning:
Most of a plant’s mass comes from
carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. These
elements are obtained through
photosynthesis, where plants use
sunlight to convert carbon dioxide
(from the air) and water (from the soil)
into glucose and oxygen. The glucose is
then used to build other organic
molecules like cellulose, which makes
up the majority of a plant's structure.
While soil nutrients are critical for plant
health, they do not account for the
majority of the plant's mass. Therefore,
plants mainly get their materials for
growth from the air (CO₂) and water,
supporting Juan’s argument.
Name(s):_______________________________
Date:__________________________________

Introduction:
Photosynthesis is the way that plants use
radiant (light) energy to convert carbon
dioxide and water into the glucose they need
to grow. This happens through the work of
chlorophyll, a green pigment that absorbs
light. Chlorophyll gives leaves the green color
we expect from plants.
The plant primarily brings water into the
trunk through its root in the soil. It absorbs
carbon dioxide through its leaves. Then the
plant uses the energy from light to break
apart the carbon dioxide and the water and
rearranges the atoms to make glucose.
When it is finished, there are oxygen
molecules left over, which are released back
into the air for us to breathe.
When there is extra glucose that the plant doesn’t immediately need, the plant will
convert glucose to starch as a way of storing energy long-term. Starch is then converted
back into glucose (short term energy) when the plant needs it.

Pre-Lab Questions:
1. What is the purpose of photosynthesis?
To provide energy to the plant in order to grow
2. How does a plant use light energy?
The plant absorbs the light to convert CO2 and water into glucose
3. What 3 things are needed for photosynthesis to take place?
water, light, and carbon dioxide
4. What is produced through photosynthesis?
glucose and oxygen
5. What happens to the extra glucose that the plant doesn’t immediately need?
The plant will convert the glucose to starch as a way of storing long term energy
Equation for Photosynthesis
6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2

Photosynthesis involves two simultaneous processes: the light-dependent reactions and the
light-independent reactions (Calvin cycle). In the light-dependent reactions, light energy is captured and
converted into high energy ATP and NADPH molecules. In the light-independent reactions, these
high-energy molecules are used to reduce CO2 and eventually form carbohydrates such as glucose.

In today’s lab, we will simulate a light-dependent reaction using spinach leaves.

Learning Targets:
❑ Describe the reactants and products of photosynthesis and the source of reactants from the
environment.
❑ Explain the relationship of photosynthesis to the observations made during the experiment.

Materials:
❑ 3 grams sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) ❑ baby spinach leaves (4-5)
❑ liquid dish soap ❑ hole punch
❑ plastic syringe ❑ 1 500 mL beaker
❑ plastic spoon (for stirring) ❑ stopwatch/timer
❑ Petri dish ❑ light source
❑ 2 clear plastic cups (beakers can be used)
Step A:
1. Using a hand-held hole punch, cut 20 leaf disks from a baby spinach leaf. Be sure to cut between the
veins.
2. Mix 3 grams of baking soda with 300 mL of water. Stir until dissolved.
3. Add 1 small drop of dish soap to the solution and stir gently. There should be NO bubbles afterward.

Step B:
Inside of the spinach leaves are spongy mesophyll, filled with air. We need to remove the air so that we
can replace it with CO2.

1. Remove the plunger from a large clean syringe (no needle).


2. Place 20 leaf disks into the body of the syringe.
3. Be sure the leaf disks are near the tip of the syringe as you re-insert the plunger so as not to
damage the disks.
4. Insert the tip of the syringe into a beaker of baking soda solution and draw 15-20 mL into the
syringe. The leaf disks should be floating at this time.

5. Hold the syringe tip upward and expel the air by depressing the plunger carefully. Stop before the
solution comes out of the tip.
6. Seal the tip of the syringe using the index finger of your left hand and hold tightly. Pull back on the
plunger to create a partial vacuum within the syringe. If you have a good seal, it should be hard to pull
the plunger and you should see bubbles coming from the edge of the leaf disks. Hold for 10 seconds
to remove as much of the air from the leaf as possible.
7. Release your index finger and the plunger. The leaf disks should start to sink. Tap the side of the tube
or shake gently to break any bubbles on the edges of the disks. (Note: If the leaf disks do not sink,
repeat steps 5-7 again.)
Step C:
1. Remove the plunger from the syringe and pour the solution containing the 20 disks into a clear plastic
cup.
2. Move 10 of these disks into another clear plastic cup. Fill each cup with equal amounts of the baking
soda solution. Make sure that the leaf disks sink to the bottom.
3. Place one cup (control group) in a dark place, such as a drawer or cabinet so that no light can reach it.
4. Place the other cup under a light source, approximately 6-8 inches below the light.
5. As soon as the light is turned on, begin timing the experiment and recording your data in the data
table.
6. Notice what is happening to the leaf disks as time passes. Be sure to record these observations for 15
minutes.
Note: When checking the control group (leaf disks placed in the dark), be sure to check quickly to
avoid light exposure.

two different colors for each group.

2. Explain why it was important to keep one cup/beaker in a dark place.

So that no light is available to the plant to photosynthesize

3. Describe the relationship between the number of disks floating and time. Use your data to guide you.

As time progresses, more disks float because photosynthesis produces oxygen, filling the leaf disks
with gas and making them buoyant.

4. Explain the changes that occurred within the leaf tissue that allowed the leaf disks to rise to the
surface in the cup/beaker that was placed under the light.

The leaf disks rose because photosynthesis produced oxygen, which filled the air spaces in the leaf
tissue, increasing their buoyancy and causing them to float. Light energy and carbon dioxide (from
the bicarbonate solution) were essential for this process.

5. What is the product of the light-dependent reaction?


What evidence do you have to support the creation of this product in your experiment?

The product of the light-dependent reaction is oxygen, along with ATP and NADPH for use in the Calvin
cycle. In the experiment, oxygen production is evidenced by the leaf disks rising to the surface as they
become buoyant. This demonstrates that photosynthesis occurred, releasing oxygen into the leaf
tissues.

13. Like respiration, fermentation is the process of extracting energy from the oxidation of organic compounds
(like glucose). However, fermentation can occur in the presence or absence of oxygen. Fermentation
involves the step of glycolysis in respiration, but it does not go through the kreb cycle or the Electron
Transport Chain. Therefore, there are only 2 net ATP generated, not the net of 32 that come from cellular
respiration. So, fermentation produces energy; however, it is 16 times less efficient than cellular
respiration.

molecules of pyruvate.
19. It releases energy in the form of two molecules of
.
20. After pyruvate is formed in glycolysis, there are two ways it can be broken down: aerobic
respiration and anaerobic respiration.
21. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and is the preferred way for pyruvate
to be broken down.
a. It yields 36 ATP molecules, as well as carbon dioxide and water

b. When aerobic respiration takes place, a total of 38 ATP molecules are produced from
one molecule of glucose.
c. Aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria of
cells.
22. Anaerobic respiration doesn’t require oxygen .
In anaerobic respiration, pyruvate is only partially broken down.
.
23. There are two kinds of anaerobic respiration:
a. Fermentation breaks the pyruvate down into ethanol, CO2, and water.
i. It is important in bread making, brewing, and wine making.
b. Lactic acid fermentation breaks the pyruvate down into , CO2,
and water.
i. It occurs in the muscles of animals when they need energy faster than the blood can suppl
.
ii. It also occurs in some bacteria that convert lactose into lactic acid. This process gives yogurt
its sour taste.
24. Both ethyl alcohol and lactic acid contain chemical energy that can’t be used by anaerobic respiration,
making this an efficient process.

It decreased because we were losing energy

After the first three my hand been to cramp. The muscles in my hand hurt because there was a lot
of lactic acid.

Muscle fatigue occurs when muscle cells undergo insufficient cellular respiration, leading to a
buildup of lactic acid and a depletion of energy reserves, impairing muscle function.

During intense exercise, muscles are forced to use anaerobic respiration to produce ATP because
the demand for energy exceeds the oxygen supply, preventing aerobic respiration from occurring
efficiently.

The byproduct of anaerobic respiration, lactic acid, accumulates in muscles during intense
exercise, causing a burning sensation and contributing to muscle cramps.
