Chapter 4 Notes Deck 1 Flashcards
Codons code for
Amino acids
Amino acids make up
Proteins
Replication
DNA interphase
Transcription
mRNA copies DNA
Translation
tRNA goes to ribosome. Code amino acids
Anabolic metabolism
Metabolic process by which larger molecules are synthesized by smaller ones, needed for cell growth and repair
Glycolysis outputs
2 pyrrhic acids, 2 atp, NADH
Lactic acid fermentation outputs
NAD+, lactic acids
Lactic acid fermentation allows
Glycolysis to occur again, continues and long as necessary
Krebs cycle outputs
Co2, 2 atp, NADH, FADH
Electron transport chain outputs
34 ATP, H2O
C6H12O6
Glucose, monosaccharide
Glucose+glucose=c12H22O11+H20
Dehydration synthesis reaction
C12H22O11
Disaccharide and sucrose
Catabolism
Breakdown of large molecules into smaller ones and releases energy
Enzymes
Promote chemical reactions in cells by lowering the amount of energy activation needed to initiate a reaction
Enzymes react
Only on a particular substrate
Substance of an enzyme
Makes sure that the enzyme functions and performs certain metabolic reactions
Coenzyme
A non protein molecule required for the activity of a particular enzyme
Coenzymes are
Vitamins
Agents that can cause denaturization of enzymes
Exposure to heat, radiation, electricity, certain chemicals, or fluids w extreme pH values
Energy
The capacity to change or move matter, the ability to do work
Six common forms of energy
Sound, chemical, radiant, electric, atomic, and mechanical
Chemical
Form of energy used by cell processes
Oxidation
Process energy is released by
Amount of energy used in anaerobic respiration
2 atp
End product of oxidation in anaerobic respiration
Lactic acid, energy, pyruvic acid, NADH
Location of anaerobic reactions within cell
Cytoplasm
How released energy is captured in anaerobic respiration
ATP
Number of molecules formed in anaerobic respiration
2
End product of oxidation in aerobic respiration
Water, ATP, CO2
Location of aerobic reactions
Mitochondria
How released energy is captured in aerobic respiration
ATP
How many molecules formed in aerobic respiration
36
Metabolic pathway
Sequence of enzyme controlled reactions that lead to the production of a particular product
Excess of carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins
Stored as far due to metabolic pathways
