- Front
- Back
the sum of of chemical reactions in an organism; either require energy or release energy
|
metabolism
|
|
complex organic compounds are broken down into simpler ones- energy releasing process-hydrolic reaction-exergonic
|
catabolism
|
|
buliding of complex molecules from simpler ones-energy using process-dehydration-endergonic
|
anabolism
|
|
a sequence of enzymatically catalyzed chemical reactions in a cell
|
metabolic pathway
|
|
the ___ theory states that chemical reactions can occur when atoms, ions, and molecules collide.
|
collision
|
|
____ energy is needed to distrupt electronic configurations.
|
activation
|
|
____ rate is the frequency of collisions with enough energy to bring about a reaction. (can be ___ by enzymes or ___ by temp/pressure)
|
reaction rate-increased-increasing
|
|
specific for a chemical reaction; not used up in that reaction.
|
biological catalysts
|
|
apoenzyme
|
protein
|
|
nonprotein component; (iron, zinc, mg, Ca) from bridge enzyme and substrate
|
cofactor
|
|
apoenzyme + cofactor = _____
some enzyme need both cofactor and apoenzyme to become active |
holoenzyme
|
|
(nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide)
an elctron carrie, a derivative of vitamin B, catabolism |
NAD+
|
|
(nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate)
an electron carrier, a derivative of vitamin B, anabolism |
NADP+
|
|
(flavin adenine dinucleotide)
contain derivative of vitamin B riboflavin, also an electron carrier |
FAD
|
|
deriviative of pathothenic acid, another vitamin B synthesis and breakdown of fats, also involve Krebs cycle
|
Coenzyme A
|
|
(enzymes)
oxidation-reduction reactions |
oxidoreductase
|
|
(enzymes)
transferase |
transfer fuctiional groups
|
|
(enzymes)
hydrolase |
hydrolisis
|
|
(enzymes)
lyase |
removal of atoms without hydroliss
|
|
(enzymes)
isomerase |
rearrangement of atoms
|
|
(enzymes)
ligase |
joining of molecules, uses ATP, DNA
|
|
factors that influence the rates of chemical reactions
|
concentration
temp catalysts |
|
-speeds up chemical reaction by lowering activation energy; unchanged at the end of the reaction; act at certi npH and substrates
|
catalysts
|
|
__ is the removal of electrons from a molecule; prodice energy
|
oxidation
|
|
__ is the gain of electrons by a molecule
|
reduction
|
|
"splitting of sugar" breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvic acid
|
gylcolysis
|
|
most energy of glucose remains in 2 molecules of lyruvic acid; NADH passes electrons to the ETC- pyruvate enters mitochondria by active transport
|
krebs cycle
|
|
electron transfer in the ETC causes proteins to pump H+ from the mitochondrial matrix; chemoiosmosis
|
oxidative phosphorylation
|
|
the oxidation of glucose to pyruvic acid produces _ ATP, _ NADH, and _H2O.
|
2, 2, 2.
|
|
in the krebs cycle, the oxidation of acetyl CoA produces _ NADH, _ FADH2 and _ ATP
|
6, 2, 2.
|
|
In aerobic respiration, __ is the final electron acceptor.
|
oxygen (O2)
|
|
-releases energy from oxidation of organic molecules
-does not require oxygen -does not use krebs/ETC -uses an organic molecule as final electron acceptor |
fermentation
|
|
___ fermentation produces ethyl alcohol + CO2
|
alcohol
|
|
___ ___ fermentation produces lactic acid.
|
lactic acid
|
|
____ fermentation produces lactic acid only
|
homolactic
|
|
____ fermemntation produces lactic acid and other components
|
heterolactic
|
|
in ___ fermentation, pyruvate is converted to ethanol in two steps, with the first releasing CO2.
|
alcohol
|
|
in ______ fermentation, pyruvate is reduced to NADH, forming lacate as an end product, with no release of CO2.
|
lactic acid
