Know what it means for reactions to be coupled (endergonic and exergonic)
|
For every endergonic reaction there is an exergonic reaction. They happen together.
|
|
What is the major energy currency of the cell?
|
ATP |
|
Be able to articulate what happens in ATP hydrolysis |
The energy released from the hydrolysis of ATP into ADP is used to perform cellular work, usually by coupling the exergonic reaction of ATP hydrolysis with endergonic reactions.
|
|
Know the name of the reaction that creates ATP from ADP
|
Phoshorylation, because you’re going to add a phosphate to get atp
|
|
Be able to describe what occurs in an oxidation/reduction reaction to electrons and Hydrogen ions. Be able to recognize which is occurring in a reaction.
|
oxidation/reduction reaction- one thing is oxidized and one is reduced, a coupled reaction.
Reduction- gained H or an electron. Oxidation- when you lose H or an electron. |
|
Be able to write and recognize the formula for cellular respiration and photosynthesis and know in which oxidation is occurring and in which reduction is occurring.
|
NAD to NADH is reduction,opposite is oxidation
Cellular Respiration- oxidation |
|
Know the three major steps of cellular respiration
|
Glycolysis
Citric acid cycle Electron transport chain |
|
Know where each step takes place
|
Glycolysis- cytoplasm
Citric acid cycle- inside the mitochondria Electron transport- inner mitochondria |
|
Know how many steps are in glycolysis
|
10 |
|
Understand the beginning reactants of glycolysis and know what steps require ATP input
|
Glucose, 1 & 3 they each require one ATP so the total is 2 ATP
|
|
Understand the products of glycolysis and know which steps make ATP and NADH and how many are produced
|
Pyruvate, 7 & 10 made ATP. 6 made NADH
|
|
Know which steps are oxidation/reduction reactions and which are oxidative phosphorylation
|
oxidation/reduction happens when we make NADH or FADH2
Oxidative phosphorylation happens when we create an ATP |
