Q

Three stages of catabolic reactions

A

Stage 1- digestion; breaks down the large macromolecules into small monomer units
Stage 2- carbohydrates are broken down further and create pyruvate
Stage 3- carbons enter citric acid cycle and produce further CO2 and reduced coenzymes

Q

Coupling of reactions

A

Many reactions do not occur naturally but can be made by coupling them with a reaction that releases energy
These reactions are also used to transmit impulses, transport substances across membranes and to contract muscles

Happens when blood glucose is depleted

47
Q

Gluconeogenesis

A

Glucose is synthesized from carbon atoms obtained from noncarbohydrate compounds

48
Q

A

Series of reactions that uses the two carbon acetyl group in acetyl coA to produce CO2, NADH + H+, and FADH2

49
Q

Electron transport

A

Hydrogen ions and electrons from NADH and FADH2 are passed from one electron acceptor to the next until they combine with oxygen to form H2O

50
Q

A

The electron acceptors in electron transport

51
Q

4 types of electron carriers make up electron transport system

  3. ) Coenzyme Q (Q or CoQ)
  4. ) Cytochromes (Cyt)
52
Q

Chemiosmotic model

54
Q

ATP synthase

A

Energy generated from the proton gradient is used to drive ATP synthase
