Substance changed during a chemical reaction.

Before changed
Poroducts
Substances made by a chemical reaction.

after Changed
Bond Energy
amount of energy that will break a bong between two atoms
Equillibrium
When reactans and products are made at the same rate.
Activation energy
Amount of energy needed to be absorbed for a reaction to start
Exothermic Chemical Reaction
releases more energy then it absorbs
Endothermic Chemical Reaction
Absorbs more energy then it releases
Catalyst
Substance that decreases the activation energy needed to start a chemical reaction
Enzymes
catalysts for chemical reation in living things. Enzymes are proteins
Substrates
The specific reactants that an enzyme acts on.
Cell Theory
-All organisms are made of cells
-All existing cells are produced by other living cells
-The cell is the most basic unit of life
Cytoplasm
Space in a cell, jellylike
Organelles
Structures specialized to perform distinct jobs
Prokaryotic Cells
-no nucleus
-no membrane-bound organelles
-DNA is in the cytoplasm
-All single celled organism
Eukaryotic Cells
-Nucleus
-Membrane Bound Organelles
-multicellular or single celled organisms
-Cytoskeleton
Cytoskeleton
Hold up the cell
Endoplasmic Reticulum
Production of proteins and lipids.

Eukaryotic
Ribosomes
Tiny organelles that link amino acids together to form PROTEIN
Golgi Apparatus
Process sort and deliver proteins
Vescicles
Transport pod for proteins
-divides materials
Mitochonria
Supply energy to the cell
Vacuole
fluid filled sac used for the storage of materials for a cell, water, food
Lysosomes
Defend a cell from invating bacteria. Cells bodyguards
Centrioles
Cylinder shaped organelles
Chloroplasts
Carry out photosynesis
Phospholipid
Antennas forming the cell membrane
Selective Permeability
Allows some, but not all materials to crass
Receptor
is protein that detects a signal molecule and binds with the molecule that is outside the cell
Passive Transport
movement of molecules in a fluid or gas from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration,
Concentration Gradient
The difference in the concentration of a substance from on place to another.
Diffusion
movement of molecules in a fluid or gas from a region of higher to lower.
Osmosis
Diffusion of water
Isotonic solution
Same concentration of dissolved particles as the cell.

normal cell
Hypertonic Solution
Higher Concentration of dissolved particles then the cell.

smaller cell
Hypotonic Solution
Higher Concententration in the cell.

fat cell
Facilitated Diffusion
Protein Transport Diffusion
Active Transport
Energy used to move molecules from lower to higher concentrated areas.
Endocytosis
Cell membrane forms a pocket to take in materials.
Phagocytosis
Endocytosis but for big particles
Exocytosis
Opposite of endocytosis
Grana
Stacks of thylakoids
Stroma
space in the chloroplasts
Thylakoid
Where chlorophyll is contained
Light Dependent
Photosystem II and electron transport
Light indepependent
Calvin Cycle
Photosystem II and Electron Transport
1. Energy obsorbed from light
2. H20 is broken down and 2 electrons are stolen
3. Ions are transported through the thylakoid membrane
4. Photosystem I- more energy aabsorbed by sun
5. Electrons are added to form Nadp+ into Nadph
6.Hydrogen ions diffuse through a protein channel (ATP synthase) and form ATP
Calvin Cycle
1. Co2 molecules enter the cycle added to a 5 carbon molecule to form a 6.
2. Energy is added to split it into two three carbon molecules.
3. one of the three carbon molecules is high-energy so it leaves.
4. the other three carbon molecule goes back to stage 1 to form a 5 carbon molecule
Cellular Respiration
releases chemical energy from sugars and other carbon based molecules to make atp when oxygen is present
Aerobic Repiration
oxygen is needed
Glycolysis
splits glucose into two three-carbon molecules making two atp
Anaerobic
oxygen is not needed
Krebs Cycle + ELectron Transport = Cellular Respiration
takes place in the matrix
1. Three carbon molecules from glycolysis enter CR
2. This forms ATP that is transported to the inner membrane for stage 2.
3. Energy from Glycolysis and 6O2 go through the inner membrane ande ATP is made.

heat and water is the waste product.

SUMMARY

C6H12O6 + 6O2 forms 6CO2 + 6H20
Fermentation
Glycolysis without O2, is allowed because of fermentation
