All the chemical reactions that occur in a cell
|
Metabolism
|
|
reations that break down large molecules into smaller molecules. Breaks bonds, releases energy, loses electrons, hydrolytic reactions, oxidation reactions
|
Catabolism
|
|
All the reactions that build up smaller molecules into larger ones. Creates bonds, requires energy, gains electrons, synthetic reactions, reduction reactions.
|
Anabolism
|
|
Adenosine Triphosphate
|
ATP
|
|
is a nucleotide composed of a base, adenine, a sugar, ribose and 3 phosphates.
|
ATP
|
|
composed of ADP~P. When the ~P is added energy is stored. When it is broken energy is released and catabolic reactions take place.
|
ATP
|
|
a series of reactions where in reactant "A" results in the product "F". If any mistakes occur from "B to E" then "F" wont occur.
|
Metabolic Pathways
|
|
energy that is needed to turn potential energy into kinetic energy
|
Activation energy
|
|
protein catalyst that speeds up a specific reaction and controls the rate of reaction.
|
Enzyme
|
|
reactants that the enzyme speeds up.
|
Substrate
|
|
composed of apoenzyme and coenzyme.
|
Enzyme
|
|
protein part, special part that limits the effect to one reaction
|
Apoenzyme
|
|
large molecules, non protein that assist enzymes in performing reactions
|
Coenzyme
|
|
add and subtract H2
|
dehydrogenases
|
|
all of the cellular chemical reactions in which energy is released in support of cell life.
|
Cellular respiration.
