Chapter 4 Reactions, Enzymes And Cellular Metabolism Flashcards
What do I & J represent in this reaction
I + J -> P + Q
Reactants
What do P & Q represent in this reaction
I + J -> P + Q
Products
What type of energy is used to describe energy of motion
Kinetic
What is the term to describe stored energy
Potential energy
This energy is stored in chemical bonds of a molecule and available to work once the bond I broken
Free energy
what type of energy must be invested to start a reaction in a biological reaction
Activation energy
What kind of reaction breaks chemical bonds to make simpler molecules from complex ones and release the free energy for use elsewhere
Exergonic reaction
What type of reaction needs input of energy to form new chemical bonds that creates complex molecules from simpler ones and then stored free energy in those new chemical bonds
Endergonic
What molecule is the primary energy source for biological reaction
ATP
What is happening to a molecule when is gains a high energy electron and H+ ion during a chemical reaction
Reduced
What is happening to a molecule when it loses a high energy electron (& H+ ion) during a chemical reaction
Oxidized
What type of reaction is happening when a molecule gains a phosphate group during a chemical reaction
Phosphorylation
Whats it called when a enzyme transfer a phosphate group from one molecule to another
Kinase
What type of reaction describes when a water molecule is removed to build a larger molecule from smaller ones
Dehydration
What type of reaction is when one large substrate molecule is split up into several smaller molecules when water is added to the reaction
Hydrolysis
What enzyme describes removing high energy electrons and H+ ions from a reactant
Dehydrogenase
What enzyme adds a phosphate group from inorganic source to other molecules
Phosphorylase
What enzymes removed a phosphate group from molecule then releases into the solution
Phosphatase
This enzyme transfer an amino group from one molecule to another
transaminase
This enzyme joins 2 substrates while using ATP
Synthetase
What enzymes split protein into smaller ones or a single amino acid through the addition of water
Peptidase
This term refers to all chemical reaction that take place in an organism
Metabolism
This term refers to the energy utilizing reaction that results in synthesis uh large bio molecules from smaller monomers
Anabolism
This term describes to the release of energy through the breakdown of large bio molecules into smaller smaller monomers
Catabolism
What kind of reaction need oxygen and take place in the mitochondria
Aerobic reaction
What kind of reaction does not require oxygen and takes place in cytosol
Anaerobic
What aerobic metabolic reaction produces the most ATP per molecule of glucose metabolized by a cell
Electron transport system
This anaerobic reaction transform a glucose molecule into 2 puruvate molecules and produces 2 ATP & 2 NADH molecules
Glycolysis
What aerobic pathway produces 2 ATP molecules and 8 nucleotides based molecules that store high energy electrons
Citric Acid Cycle
What molecules stored high energy electrons & contains potential energy to produce 2.5 ATP molecules on average.
NADH
