Reviewing the cell

NEXT PERIOD THERE IS A QUIZ ON VOCAB WORDS
from 1-2 and also the following material below

Homework: make a list of vocabulary words from 1-2 and 1-3.

Today we reviewed the parts of the cell and discussed the role of the MITOCHONDRIA and Chloroplasts

The MITOCHONDRIA is the "powerhouse" of the cell.

Cellular Respiration takes place in the mitochondria:

C6H12O6 glucose + O2 + H2    H2O + CO2        ATP energy is generated

ALL OF YOUR ORGAN SYSTEMS keep this reaction going in your mitochondria.
Digestive system provides the glucose.  
Cardiovascular system  and respiration provide the oxygen and takes away the carbon dioxideExcretory system gets rid of the water. 






The plant cell has CHLOROPLASTS, which can make glucose through

Photosynthesis
 H2O + CO2   →  C6H12O6 glucose  + O2 + H2O
