16
Q

ATP

A

Adenosine Triphosphate

17
Q

ATP is

A

energy currency

18
Q

____ types of ATP Work

A

3

19
Q

1st Step of ATP work explained

A

ATP in presence of WATER is hydrolyzed.

3 phosphates, highly charged to sugar ( ribose, extra OXY on #2 carbon) att to base ( adenine).

ATP + H2O —> ADP (High energy phosphate) + Pi + 7.3kcals

20
Q

2nd Step of ATP Work explained

A

PHOSPHORLATION ; high energy phosphate attaches to TARGET.

7.3 KCALS is NOW uses for work

7.2 kcals released

21
Q

3rd Step of ATP Work explained

A

ATP Cycle ( restores/regenerates ATP)

ADP + Pi –> ATP + H2O

22
Q

ATP is a _____ reaction

A

Endergonic reaction ; requring energy from cellular resp/fermentation

23
Q

ATP _____ be stored

A

CAN’T

24
Q

Enzymes end with

A

ASE

25
Q

Enzymes def

A

bio catalyst proteins that speed up rate of an reaction

26
Q

The speeding up of a reaction causes a

A

lower activation energy needed ( barrier)

27
Q

How do enzymes lower act. energy

A

breaking covalent bonds

28
Q

enzymes offer ___

A

more control

29
Q

Components of enzyme activity include ( 5)

A

Active sites; substrtate, induced fit, saturation and enzyme substrate complex

30
Q

___ most important environment factors determining enzyme activity

A

2; temp and PH

31
Q

examples of temp and ph enzyme activity

A

fever and yellowstone

32
Q

Enzyme cofactors vs adjuncts

A

adjuntcs are inorganic ( minerals), cofactors are organic ( vitamins)

33
Q

2 Enzyme inhibitors

A

Competiive vs non-competitive

34
Q

Competitive Inhibitor examples

A

DDT ; penecilin

35
Q

Non-comp inhibitator example

A

nerve gas, cyanide, mercury

36
Q

Non competitive does what to an active site?

A

binds AWAY from active site, changes shape of active site

37
Q

DDT made by

A

Mueller

38
Q

Rachel Carson

A

hurting wildlife ; “ SILENT SPRINGS”
