Q

ATP adenosine triphosphate

A

The main energy currency of cells
Composed of ribose, adenine and three phosphate groups
three negatively charged phosphate groups repel, which intern causes the bonds inherently to become unstable, easily broken by hydrolysis and releases energy to drive cellular processes

Q

The role of enzymes

A

Enzymes are proteins that speed up chemical reactions within the cell
Biological catalyst, speed up conversions of substrate into a product without being altered
Can greatly increase the speed of a reaction reaction will occur, but would also be extremely slow
Enzymes are highly specific and selective about the reaction catalyzed

17
Q

So microorganisms can metabolize in organic matter

A

Atmospheric nitrogen N2
Hydrogen
Iron

18
Q

Bacteria can obtain energy and nutrients by performing

A

Photosynthesis which produces oxygen
Decomposing, dead organisms and waste organic compounds
Breaking down, chemical compounds like iron and ammonia

19
Q

Chemoautotroph

A

Prokaryotes that can use reduce inorganic compounds as sources of energy and carbon dioxide as a carbon source
Use inorganic compounds for aerobic or anaerobic, respiration, important example of nutrient cycling

20
Q

Energy source

A

Serves as an electron donor
Organic and inorganic compounds are used as an energy source

E. coli use organic compounds is glucose for energy
Chemolititrophs use hydrogen, sulfide, hydrogen, gas, or other inorganic molecules

21
Q

Terminal electron acceptor,

A

Chemical that ultimately receive the electron
02 and other molecules such as nitrate nitrate, and sulfite can be used as terminal electron acceptor in bacteria
Aerobic organisms use oxygen as a terminal electron acceptor
Anaerobic organisms do not use oxygen but other molecules

22
Q

Oxidation

A

Loss of electrons

23
Q

Reduction

A

Gain of electrons

24
Q

In cellular respiration glucose is oxidized and oxygen is reduced

A

Hydrogen is the source of electrons

25
Q

Energy from food, carbohydrates or glucose is converted into ATP energy via

A

Call sis

26
Q

Respiration high ATP yield

A

Aerobic with oxygen
Anaerobic no oxygen

27
Q

Fermentation low atp yield

A

No oxygen

28
Q

Both respiration and fermentation

A

Involve coenzymes NAD or FAD which can carry electrons and protons
When they carry electrons and protons they become NADH FAD2 which canal be called electron carriers
Both pathways create ATP

29
Q

Role of electron carriers

A

Electron transport an electron carriers which represent reducing power, can easily be transferred to electrons with higher affinity for electrons

30
Q

The process to which a compound glucose oxidized using oxygen as a terminal electron acceptor, and resulting in a proton motive force

A

Aerobic, cellular respiration molecular oxygen is a final electron acceptor of the electron shells made a chain produces about 38 ATP in bacteria

31
Q

Aerobic cellular respiration, uses three pathways

A

Glycolysis the transition step and Krebs cycle tricarboxylic acid cycle
Respiratory chain or electron transport chain

32
Q

Glycolysis

A

Breaks down glucose to pyruvate
Celsius glycolysis to strip glucose of its electrons
Glucose six carbon sugar is broken down into to pyruvate molecules or three carbon molecules
The elections are used to 2NAD+ to 2NADH
And a net of two ATP are made

33
Q

Transition step and tricarboxylic acid cycle or Krebs cycle

A

To private rate goes to two acetyl-CoA, which enter the Krebs cycle
2NADH And 2 CO2
The Krebs cycle produces
4 CO2 2ATP 6NADH 2FADH2

34
Q

Electron transport chain in aerobic cellular respiration

A

Makes the most ATP 34 ATP
Electron carriers, NADH and FADH2 past electrons in chains
This helps pump hydrogen ions out of the cell
Which ultimately forms, a proton H gradient, or the electrochemical gradient
Protons move across the membrane through ATP synthase to make a
Oxygen is a final electron in a in acceptor

35
Q

Electron transport chain

A

Occurs in the cell five membrane of bacteria prokaryotes
Occurs in the mitochondrial membrane of eukaryotes

36
Q

Chemiosmosis

A

Protons move across the membrane through ATP synthase to make ATP

37
Q

Is the final electron acceptor in aerobic respiration?

A

Oxygen

38
Q

Aerobic respiration review

A

Happens with prokaryotes and eukaryotes uses 02 as the final electron acceptor
And product is H2O
Yields 38 ATP

39
Q

Aerobic respiration

A

Some bacteria can do this
Inorganic molecules used as the final electron acceptor
Final electron acceptor’s can be nitrate nitrate, sulfate ferric, iron, and more that have a lower electron affinity than oxygen
And products include N two hydrogen sulfide
ATP yield varies with organism that is less than 38. ATP

40
Q

Fermentation

A

Is metabolism that does not require
Breaks down glucose Via glycolysis
There is no Krebs cycle, TCA cycle, and no electron transport chain
Create 2 ATP HER GLUCOSE MOLECULE
FERMENTATION IN ALL ABOUT RECYCLING NAD+ so that glycolysis can continue to
end products lactic acid, ethanol and CO2
