Chapter 7 Flashcards
Kilocalorie
1000 calories
How is the release of energy different in burning fuel vs. the process of cellular respiration?
Both need fuel, but sources are different. Both use oxygen and produce water and energy.
What are the kilocalories per gram on fats, carbs, and proteins?
Fats = 9 Carbs = 4 Proteins = 4
What is the structure of an ATP model?
Made of adenosine and triphosphate
Where is the energy storage in an ATP molecule?
The phosphate groups
How are ATP and ADP related?
ATP has phosphate groups, ADP has none
Mechanical work
Muscle contraction
Chemical Work
Building proteins
Transport Work
Active transport of solute with protein pump
Why is breathing related to cellular respiration?
O2 taken in from air and removes CO2 from body
What is the equation of cellular respiration?
C6 H12 O2 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H20 + energy (ATP)
What is the main goal of cellular respiration for the cell?
To break down sugar to create ATP / energy
Reactants of cellular respiration
C6, H12, O6
Products of cellular respiration
34 ATP and 6 H20
Glycolysis
Takes place in cytoplasm, reactants are Glucose and 2 ATP and products are 2 pyruvic acids and 2 NADH. 2 ATP is produced
