the buildup of small molecules, products are large molecules, photosynthesis, mediated by enzymes, energy generally is required, endergonic.
|
anabolism
|
|
breakdown of large molecules, products are small molecules, glycolysis, krebs cycle, mediated by enzymes, energy generally is rleased, exergonic
|
catabolism
|
|
the substance acted upon by the enzyme is called the ______, and the products formed are termed _____
|
substrate, products
|
|
sequence of chemical reactions, each reacction catalyzed by a different enzyme
|
metabolic pathway
|
|
the final end product of a metabolic pathway inhibits an enzyme in that pathway; if the first enzyme in the pathway is inhibited then no product is available to feed the rest of the pathway
|
feeback inhibition
|
|
when the final end product or any molecule binds to a non ative site on the enzyme the shap eof the active site changes and acan nol longer bind substrate.
|
non competitive inhibition
|
|
if a molecule resmembles the normal substrat, it will sit in the active site, this __ doesnt allow the normal substarte to bind
|
competitive inhibition
|
|
Heat alters the ______ structure of enzymes.
|
tertiary structure
|
|
in prokaryotes the ATP is ofrmed on the _______.
|
cell membrane
|
|
ATP provides the needed energy for activities such as ____,____, and _______. On a more hcemical level it fuels ____ and _______.
|
binary fiision, flagellar motion, and spore formation. protein syntheiss and carbohydrate breakdown.
|
|
ATP molecules are relatively ______
|
unstable
|
|
ADP molecules are _____
|
more stable
|
|
the freeing of the phosphate is the breaking of a high energy bond giving the means to which _________.
|
work can be done
|
|
the addition of a phosphate group to another moleule is called ________
|
phosphorylation
|
|
Because ATP can not be stored(unstable), prokaryotic cells synthesize large organic compounds like ______ and _____ for energy storage.
|
glycogen or lipids
|
|
the process of converting chemical energy into cellulr energy in the form of ATP;(virtually all cells make ATP by harvesting energy from exergonic metabolic pathways)
|
cellular respiration
|
|
if cells consume oxygen in making ATP the catabolic process is called _______
|
aerobic respiration
|
|
cell can make almost equally substantial amount of ATP without using oxygen in which case it is called ________
|
anaerobic respirtation
|
|
the splitting of glucose called ____, occurs in the cytosol of prokaryotes and involves a metbaolic pathways that converst ONE initial 6 carbon substrate glucose, into TWO 3 carbon molecules called pyruvate
|
glycolysis
|
|
In glycolysis between glucose and the formation of pyruvate _______ are formed; each catalyzed by a specific enzyme.
|
eight intermediates are formed
|
|
end product formed is used as one substrate to initiate the pathway, all rxn are catalyzed by enzymes and all take place aloe the cell membrane of prokaryotic cells.
|
krebs cycle
|
|
Before the two pyruvate molecules enter the Krebs cycle they undergo what sort of change?
|
an enzyme revmoves a carbon atom from each of the two pyruvate molecules and relases the carbons as two carbon dioxide molecules the remaining two carbon atoms or pyruvate are combined with coenzyme A to form acetyl-CoA
|
|
the loss and transport of electron will enable ADP to be phosphorylated to ATP through
|
oxidative phosphoryltation
|
|
pairs of electrons are passed from on ehcemical substance to another
|
electron transport
|
|
the energy relased during their passage is used to combine phosphate with ADP to form ATP
|
ATP synthesis
|
|
where does oxidative phosphorylation take place?
|
the cell membrane of prokaryotes
|
|
oxidative phosphorylation is responsible for producting ___ molecules of ATP per glucose.
|
34
|
|
during oxidative phosphoryltaion, the electrons once gained in glycolysis and Krebs cycle will now be passed off to electron carriers known as _______
|
cytochromes
|
