Synthesis

The combining of elements/molecules to yield a molecule.

H2+O=H2O


Water is made in the process of synthesis

Biosynthesis

Organisms and cells producing molecules for life.

Plants making glucose.


Plants do biosynthesis to create energy and food for themselves.

Decomposition

The ripping apart of molecules for energy and biosynthesis.

H2O = H2 + O


Decomposition happens in biosynthesis.

Cell Respiration

The chemical process in a cell that makes its energy through metabolic reactions.

Forming ATP


Cell Respiration can happen Aerobically and Anaerobically.

Aerobic

The use of oxygen in cell respiration to form energy for the cell.

A human jogging is a type of Aerobic Cell Respiration.

Anaerobic

The use of other substances not including oxygen in cell respiration to form energy for the cell.

They burning feeling humans get while jogging.


Anaerobic Cell Respiration

Fermentation

chemically breaking down substances with the use of microorganisms.

Making alcohol.


Lactic Fermentation is that burning feeling in exercise.

Glycolysis

The breaking down of glucose through the use of enzymes.

Glucose ripping.


Glycolysis makes energy and pyruvic acid.

Krebs Cycle

Generates energy in aerobic cell respiration. Occurs in the mitochondria. Consumes oxygen and makes Carbon dioxide and water as waste products. Converts ADP to ATP.

Converter


The Krebs Cycle makes ADP into something consuming another thing and making wastes of something.

ETS

Uses electron donors to make ATP synthesis occur. Located in the Cristae of the Mitochondria.

Electron Transport System.


ETS occurs in ATP Synthesis.

NADH & FADH2

Used to donate electrons to the Electron Transport System.

Donors to a blood drive.


They have a job to do for the ETS.

Pyruvate/Pyruvic Acid

Used in the transport of metabollic reactions.

Pyruvic Acid is on the low side of the pH scale because it is an acid.

Lactate/Lactic Acid

an organic acid in sour milk that produces proteins during respiration.

Sour milk.


Lactic Acid is usually found in milk.

Alcoholic(Fermentation)

When sugars are converted into cellular energy and produce ethanol and carbon dioxide as waste products.

Cutting oxygen off from sugars to they ferment into ethanol and something else.

Lactic Acid(Fermentation)

When glucose is converted into cellular energy and lactate.

lactate is an end product of lactic acid fermentation.

Mitochondrion

The powerhouse of a cell.

Located inside of the cell membrane.

Matrix

The site of oxidation in the mitochondria.

Matrices have an overall affect on the mitochondria.

Cristae

Folds of the inner membrane in the Mitochondria.

ETS is located here.

Cytochromes

Transfer electrons during cell respiration.

Agents in blood donating.

Faculative Aerobes

Makes ATP when oxygen is present through aerobic respiration. If not present, uses anaerobic cell respiration.

Switches between air and chemicals.

Obligate Anaerobes

Poisined by oxygen, they are the anaerobic respiration of the faculative aerobe.

Without oxygen.

Obligate Aerobes

Use oxygen in the aerobes of respiration in faculative aerobe.

With oxygen.

Hyrolysis

Breaking down a compound with the water molecules.

Doing Photosynthesis.
