Bioenergetics, Cycles And Metabolism Flashcards
Formula of standard free energy
🔺G=🔺H-T🔺S
Measure of energy available to do work
🔺G
Measure of randomness
Entropy
Measure of heat released or absorbed during a reaction
Enthalpy
Free energy change under standard condition (reactants and products at 1 mol/L)
🔺G°
For a reaction to be spontaneous and favorable, what should be the value of 🔺G?
Negative
Rate of formation of product is the same as rate of formation of reactants, what should be the value of 🔺G?
Zero
Give the 2 ways in which your cells produce ATP
Oxidative phosphorylation
Substrate level phosphorylation
2 requirements of oxidative phosphorylation
Oxygen
Mitochondria
2 pathways where substrate level phosphorylation occurs
Glycolysis
Citric acid cycle
This theory explains how the free energy generated by the transport of electrons by the EYC is used to produce ATP from ADP +PI
