All Chemical reactions that take place within a cell is called?

Metabolism
Substance that lowers the energy of activation for a reaction?

Catalyst (enzymes)
_______are proteins that act as a catalyst in chemical reactions.

Enzymes
Energy of activation?

The energy required for a reaction to take place
Type of reactions are used to obtain energy?

Catabolic (they break down)
Enzymes always end in what suffix?

-ase
Process where energy (ATP) can be transferred directly is called?

Substrate phosphorylation

Chemical equation for glucose?

C6H12O6
Means Removal of a substance and will lose electrons

Oxidation

Means adding of a substance and will gain elections
Reduction
What is glucose oxidation?

Chemical process that provides energy for an organism

Process where energy (ATP) is transferred indirectly?


Oxidative phosphorylation




Process more common (oxidative phosphorylation or substrate level phosphorylation)?

Oxidative phosphorylation
Exchange rate for NADH to ATP
For every 1 NADH= 3 ATP
Exchange rate for FADH to ATP

For every 1 FADH= 2 ATP
________is required for cellular (aerobic) respiration

Oxygen
Four stages of cellular respiration for glucose oxidation?


Glycolysis (cytosol)


Intermediate stage


Kreb Cycle (Inner folds of mitochondria)


ETC or Electron Transport Chain

Aerobic respiration uses?

Oxygen

Two processes of cellular respiration produces C02 that you exhale?

Intermediate and Kreb cycle
ATP produced by the Krebs Cycle for each molecule of glucose?

Two

Portion of cellular respiration nets the most ATP

ETC
Process of converting glucose into energy is called?

Cellular respiration
Cellular respiration requires in "investment" of 2 ATP

Glycolysis and ETC
The step of cellular respiration can occur with oxygen
Glycolysis
Which steps are aerobic respiration?

Intermediate, Kreb cycle, and ETC

Glycolysis is catabolic or anabolic?

Catabolic (break down)
When pyruvate is produced and there is no O2 present what happens at the end of glycolysis?

Two pyruvate is converted into lactate and starts fermintation

When pyruvate is produced and O2 is present what happens?

Goes to the intermediate stage
Stage linked between glycolysis and the citric acid cycle

Intermediate cycle
The catalyst in the intermediate stage

Pyruvate
Two substances combine during intermediate stage to produce Acetyl CoA

Coenzyme A and Pyruvate
Net products form intermediate stage


2 Acetyl CoA


2 NADH


2 Co2

Cellular respiration exergonic or endogenic?
Exergonic overall
What is happening in the Kreb cycle?

Acetyl CoA molecule is broken down by mitochondrial enzymes and its energy is released
What is photosynthesis?

Chemical steps in plants and algae that deal with the conversion of light into stored "food" energy such as sugars and starches. There are also secondary compounds produced. This process occurs in the chloroplast.

Organic compounds such as NAD or FAD that aid in metabolic reactions, usually by transporting elections. Vitamins are good examples are what?

Co-enzyme

A series of reactions that occur in the stroma of the chloroplast using ATP and NADHP to fix CO2 into glucose and eventually starches?

Calvin cycle

A reaction in which phosphate is added to a compound. There are three ways this can occur: substrate level and oxidative?

Phosphorylation
