|
degradation of fuel molecules is called?
|
catabolism
|
|
|
function of catabolism
|
provides energy for cellular energy-requiring functions such as anabolism
|
|
|
anabolism is?
|
biosynthesis
|
|
|
energy of food source is released in 2 ways. what are they?
|
as heat
as chemical bond energy (more important to the cell) |
|
|
what is the universal energy currency?
|
ATP - adenosine triphosphate
|
|
|
differentiate exergonic (catabolism) and endergonic (anabolism)
|
exergonic - energy releasing
endergonic - energy requiring |
|
|
what does it mean when we say ATP is a nucleotide?
|
it means it's composed of:
nitrogenous base 5-carbon sugar one, two, or tree phosphoryl groups |
|
|
in ATP, a __ bond joins the first phosphoryl group to the 5-carbon sugar ribose.
|
phosphoester
|
|
|
the next two phosphoryl groups are joined to one another by __ bonds
