Video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGdZKFFvszc

MOTIVATION At this point, after the students watch the entire video, the teacher will ask students several guided
questions to stimulate/generate learning responses.

The teacher will ask follow up questions regarding the short video clip.

Guide Questions:
1. What are the benefits of having an automatic machine juicer?
2. Is this helpful nowadays?

DURING THE LESSON (PRESENTATION OF THE LESSON)

In the present, the new system of teaching is through blended learning. The teacher will be given one day to deliver his/ her lesson
within a week based on the schedule through zoom meeting cloud application.

- Based on the shared ideas of the students, the teacher will elaborate and summarize their opinions. The teacher will use the strategy
Think and Share so that the students can confidently share their own thoughts regarding the presented topic.
-Before the discussion, the students are expected to share their personal experiences and the importance of topic in their lives.
(Personal view of the Topic – Inductive Approach)

ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS

How do living organisms maintain energy?

The teacher will further explain the ATP- ADP Cycle.

ATP- ADP CYCLE

ATP (Adenosine triphosphate): Energy Molecule

 is the most important biological molecule that supplies energy to the cell.
 is composed of three parts:
 A nitrogenous base (adenine)
 A sugar (ribose)
 Three phosphate groups (therefore the name triphosphate) bonded
together by “high energy” bonds
 is considered a transporter of energy because when one of the phosphate
groups is broken off, turning it into Adenosine diphosphate (the Tri means 3
phosphate groups, the Di means 2 phosphate groups).
 When a phosphate breaks off, through chemical reactions in a cell, energy is
released which the plant uses for cellular processes.

ADP (Adenosine diphosphate)

 is a lower energy that re-energized during photosynthesis as the phosphate group is re-attached, thus completing the
cycle of ATP to ADP to ATP.

The ATP-ADP Cycle

 The energy stored in ATP is released when a phosphate group is

removed from the molecule.
 ATP has three phosphate groups, but the bond holding the third
phosphate groups is very easily broken.
 When the phosphate is removed, ATP becomes ADP—adenosine
diphosphate, a phosphate is released into the cytoplasm and energy is
released it is called exergonic reaction
 ADP is a lower energy molecule than ATP, but can be converted to
ATP by the addition of a phosphate group.

 ATP →ADP + phosphate + energy available for cell processes

To supply the cell with energy, ADP is continually converted to ATP by the
addition of a phosphate during the process of cellular respiration.
ATP carries much more energy than ADP.
As the cell requires more energy, it uses energy from the breakdown of food
molecules to attach a free phosphate group to an ADP molecule in order to make
ATP and this is called endergonic reaction.

 ADP + phosphate + energy from breakdown of food molecules→ATP

What is the importance of photosynthesis?

The teacher will further explain the role

IMPORTANCE of photosynthesis.AND OTHER PIGMENTS IN PHOTOSYNTHESIS
OF CHLOROPHYLL

Chloroplasts: The Sites of Photosynthesis in Plants

All green parts of a plant, including green stems and unripened fruit, have chloroplasts, but the
leaves are the major sites of photosynthesis in most plants. There are about half a million
chloroplasts in a chunk of leaf with a top surface area of 1 mm 2. Chloroplasts are found mainly in
the cells of the mesophyll, the tissue in the interior of the leaf. Carbon dioxide enters the leaf, and
oxygen exits, by way of microscopic pores called stomata (singular, stoma; from the Greek,
meaning “mouth”). Water absorbed by the roots is delivered to the leaves in veins. Leaves also use
veins to export sugar to roots and other nonphotosynthetic parts of the plant. A typical mesophyll
cell has about 30–40 chloroplasts, each measuring about 2–4 μm by 4–7 μm. A chloroplast has an
envelope of two membranes surrounding a dense fluid called the stroma. Suspended within the
stroma is a third membrane system, made up of sacs called thylakoids, which segregates the stroma from the thylakoid space
inside these sacs. In some places, thylakoid sacs are stacked in columns called grana (singular, granum).

Pigments are responsible for many of the beautiful colors we see in the plant world. Dyes have often been made from both
animal sources and plant extracts. Some of the pigments found in animals have also recently been found in plants.

Chlorophylls

Chlorophyll is green, and is responsible for the green color of foliage and leaves. More importantly, by enabling plants to
produce oxygen during photosynthesis, it is critical to sustaining our life on earth. Chlorophyll has structural features similar to
heme. Bilirubin, which produces a yellow color, has recently been found in plants.

There are different types of chlorophyll pigments and are classified mainly based on their structure, functions and other
features. The different types of chlorophyll pigments are:

TABLE 1.2 DIFFERENT TYPES OF CHLOROPHYLL PIGMENTS

PIGMENT WHERE THEY ARE FOUND
Chlorophyll a found in algae, cyanobacteria and in all higher plants.
Chlorophyll b found only in green algae and in higher plants.
found in certain photosynthetic Chromista and in some marine
Chlorophyll c
algae.
Chlorophyll d found only in red algae.
Chlorophyll e found only in algae.

Among all these five types of chlorophyll pigments, chlorophyll a and b are considered as the primary photosynthetic pigments.

Carotenoids

Carotene is a pigment that absorbs blue and indigo light, and that provides rich yellows
and oranges. The distinctive colors of mango, carrots, fall leaves, and yams are due to various
forms of carotene, as is the yellow of butter and other animal fats. This pigment is important to
our diet, as the human body breaks down each carotene molecule to produce two vitamin A
molecules.

Red, orange, and yellow plants, as

well as other organisms, generally rely
on carotenoids for their vivid colors.
Flavonoids

Flavonoids are the yellow plant pigments seen most notably in

lemons, oranges, and grapefruit. The name stems from the Latin word
"flavus," which means yellow. Flavonoids in flowers and fruit provide
visual cues for animal pollinators and seed dispersers to locate their
targets. Flavonoids are located in the cytoplasm and plastids. Many of
the foods that we eat, including dark chocolate, strawberries,
blueberries,cinnamon, pecans, walnuts, grapes, and cabbage, contain
flavonoids. These chemicals lower cholesterol level, and many have
antioxidant properties. Anthocyanins and proanthocyanidins, and the reddish-brown pigment theaflavin found in tea, act to create
color, while most other flavonoids are visible only under UV light.

Betalains

Like carotenoids and flavonoids, betalains also seem to play an important

role in attracting animals to flowers and fruit, and produce a similar range of
colors. The betalains consist of two sub-groups, red-violet (betacyanin) and
yellow to orange (betaxanthin) pigments. They only occur in a few plant families, and always independently of anthocyanins.

The teacher will generalize the lesson through a video presentation.

this family. These plants lost, or never acquired, genes for the
synthesis of other plant pigments. Genes for the synthesis of
betalains appear in unrelated fungi (such as Amanita muscaria)
as violet and yellow pigments.
