bioenergetics Flashcards
what is ATP
the body’s energy currency
key function of ATP
muscle contraction
allosteric modifier
biosynthetic reaction
active transport
coupling reaction
procursor of C-AMP
what molecules make up ATP
adenine molecule
ribose molecule
3 phosphate groups
what does ATP stand for
adenosine triphosphate
how is ATP break down a hydrolysis reaction
it requires water
what type of reaction is stp
exothermic, it rec
what happens to ATP stores when you exercise
stays the same, never depletes
what happens to inorganic phosphate stores when you exercise
increases
what happens during the transition from rest to exercise
What is between the beta and gamma bond
Magnesium
Why is magnesium between the gamma bond
Increase stability
In atp where is the energy stored
Between the bonds
What is the first phosphate group known as
Alpha
What is the second phosphate group known as
Beta
What enzyme breaks down atp
Atpase
How long would our atp stores last if they weren’t resynthesised
2 seconds
How long would our phosphocreatine stores last if they weren’t resynthesised
10s
What is that atp/pcr metabolic pathway
Pcr + creative kinase —> creatine + p + energy
From one creative phosphate how much Atp is produced
1
After phosphocreatine is broken down what happens to the p
Resynthesised
ADP + P —> ATP
What products are produced from the kreb cycle
2 atp
6 NADh+
2 FADH
How many NADH and FADH is taken into the ETC
6 NADH+
2 ATP
