|
How is photosynthesis important to catabolism?
|
It is the synthesis of complex organic compounds from simple inorganic substances that can later be used for catabolism in cellular respiration.
|
|
|
What is made during the light-dependent reactions?
|
-ATP
-O2 -NADPH |
|
|
How are oxidative phosphorylation and photophosphorylation similar?
|
Both use the electron transport chain
|
|
|
Summarize how oxidation enables organisms to get energy from glucose, sulfur, or sunlight.
|
H (e- donor) serves as initial E source. (glucose, sulfur, and sunlight are donors.)
e- are removed and transferred to e- carriers (NAD+, NADP+, and FAD) ATP produced |
|
|
Almost all medically important microbes belong to which of the four aforementioned groups?
|
chemoheterotrophs-(use E from H atoms in organic compounds for E.)
|
|
|
Where do amino acids required for protein synthesis come from?
|
Enzymes synthesize all them from intermediates of carbohydrate metabolism; others require that the environment provide them.
-Add amine to organic acid of Krebs cycle |
|
|
Summarize the integration of metabolic pathways using peptidoglycan synthesis as an example.
|
Amphibolic pathways: Metabolic pathways that have both catabolic and anabolic functions
