Q

Proteins that catalyze by lowering activation energy

17
Q

Energy required to start a reaction

A

Activation energy

18
Q

Reactants in enzymatic reactions

A

Substrates

19
Q

Region in enzyme with a specific shape

A

Active Site

20
Q

What are the steps in facilitating reactions?

A

Substrates bind to active site, enzyme substrate complex forms, temporary shape change occurs, product leaves active site

21
Q

Organic molecules made of adenine and ribose

22
Q

Where does glycolysis take place?

23
Q

No oxygen required

24
Q

Glucose is broken down into 2 pyruvate

A

Glycolysis

25
How many ATP's are made in glycolysis per glucose?
2
26
Requires oxygen
aerobic
27
Pyruvate loses a carbon and binds with coenzyme A
Intermediate stage
28
Where does the intermediate stage take place?
mitochondria
29
Where does the citric acid cycle take place?
Mitochondria
30
How much ATP is formed in the citric acid cycle per glucose?
2
31
Sequence of proteins in the inner mitochondrial membrane, use hydrogen ions and electrons from previous steps to create H+ gradient; as hydrogen ions pass through ATP synthase ATP is formed
Electron transport system
32
How many ATP's are produced per glucose in the ETC per glucose?
34
33
How much water is produced in the ETC?
