Biochemical Production Flashcards
The process of Biochemistry
Biochemical Production
The sum total of all the biochemical reactions that take place in a living organism
Metabolism
Large biochemical molecules broken down to smaller ones
Catabolism
Small biochemical molecules joined to form larger ones
Anabolism
The features of cells
Metabolism and Cell Structure
No nucleus and only found in bacteria
Prokaryotic Cells
Membrane-enclosed nucleus in DNA
Eukaryotic Cells
Water-based materials between the inner and outer Cell
Cytoplasm
Minute structure within the Cytoplasm carrying its destination
Organelle
Water-based fluid part of the Cytoplasm
Cytosol
Named organelle containing hydrolytic structures
Lysosome
Generates energy of the Cell
Mitochondrion
The metabolic processes
Important Nucleotide-Containing Compounds in Metabolic Pathways
Chemical bond formed from two phosphate groups subjected to each other
Phosphoanhydride Bond
Flavin to Ribitol to ADP
Flavine Adenine Dinucleotide (FAD and FAD2)
Nicotinamide to Ribose to ADP
Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+ and NADH)
