Energy and Metabolism
In this lesson, we will be exploring the fundamental processes that sustain life, including photosynthesisThe process by which plants use light energy to produce glucose., respiration, and enzymes. We will start by discussing photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy. We will then delve into respiration, the process by which organisms convert chemical energy into usable energy. After that, we will explore enzymes and their role in catalyzing chemical reactions in the cell. We will also discuss how enzymes are specific to certain reactions, and how they can be affected by changes in temperature and pH.
