8 Flashcards
The cell does 3 main kind of work:
- Mechanical work- beating of ________, ____________, ____________ during cell division
cilia
muscular contraction
chromosome movement
The cell does 3 main kind of work:
- _______________ of substances across membranes
Transport work-pumping
The cell does 3 main kind of work:
- Chemical work-synthesis of ______________
polymers from monomers
- Energy is stored in organic molecules
– carbohydrates, fats, proteins - Heterotrophs eat these organic molecules ® food
– digest organic molecules to get… - raw materials for synthesis
- fuels for energy
– controlled release of energy
– “burning” fuels in a series of step-by-step
enzyme-controlled reactions
Harvesting stored energy
Harvesting stored energy
Energy is stored in organic molecules
– carbohydrates, fats, proteins
Harvesting stored energy
__________ eat these organic molecules —> food
– digest organic molecules to get…
Heterotrophs
Harvesting stored energy
Heterotrophs eat these organic molecules —> food
– digest organic molecules to get…
- raw materials for _________
- fuels for _________
synthesis
energy
fuels for energy
– controlled release of ________
– “_________” fuels in a series of step-by-step enzyme-controlled reactions
energy
burning
_________ is the model
Glucose
____________ of glucose to produce ATP
catabolism
making a lot of heat energy by burning fuels in one step
combustion
making ATP (& some heat) by burning fuels in many small steps
respiration
Respiration reaction
glucose + oxygen —> energy + water + carbon dioxide
or
C6H1206+ G02 —> ATP + 6H20 + 6CO2+ Heat
___________ move electrons by shuttling H atoms around
Electron carriers
Electron carriers move electrons by ____________ around
shuttling H atoms
NAD+ —-> NADH (_________)
reduced
FAD+2 —> FADH2 (_________)
reduced
________ kcal/mol of ATP

§Bonds between phosphate
groups unstable and broken by
hydrolysis
§High energy phosphate bonds
– term is misleading
§Phosphate bonds in ATP
actually weak and unstable;
products of hydrolysis ( ADP
and ℗ more stable
§Release of energy during ATP
hydrolysis from a chemical
change to a more stable
condition and not from
phosphate bonds themselves
Features of ATP
Features of ATP
Bonds between phosphate groups unstable and broken by _______
hydrolysis
Features of ATP
_________ phosphate bonds
– term is misleading
High energy
Features of ATP
Phosphate bonds in ATP actually __________; products of hydrolysis (ADP and ℗ more stable
weak and unstable
Features of ATP
________ during ATP hydrolysis from a chemical change to a more stable condition and not from phosphate bonds themselves
Release of energy
Why are phosphate bonds unstable?
- All three phosphate groups negatively charged
- Like charges crowded together ; repulsion contributes to instability of bonds
- Triphosphate tail of ATP chemical equivalent of a loaded
spring; release/relaxation of compressed spring
releases energy
