Chapter 9 Compounds of High Phosphoryl-Transfer Potential

Question 1

Compounds that release energy upon hydrolysis contain _________

Answer 1

Phosphoryl Groups

Question 2

High phosphoryl-transfer potential compound

Answer 2

A~P

Question 3

What happens when A~P transfers its phosphoryl group to compound B?

Answer 3

Increases the energy content of B, creating B-P

Question 4

B-P loses energy in reaction making it favorable (give equation)

Answer 4

A~P + B -> A + B-P ΔG < 0

Question 5

Three main compounds of High Phosphoryl-Transfer Potential

Answer 5

ATP, ADP, Phosphocreatine

Question 6

ATP hydrolysis powers _______.

Answer 6

Anabolism

Question 7

ATP synthesis fueled by _______.

Answer 7

Catabolism

Question 8

What are the main processes that use ATP?

Answer 8

Anabolism, Movement, Active Transport, Signal amplification

Question 9

ATP serves as a _____ energy source.

Answer 9

Direct

Question 10

ADP and phosphocreatine are _____ energy sources.

Answer 10

Indirect

Question 11

Other ribonucleoside triphosphates that serve as direct energy sources

Answer 11

GTP (protein synthesis), UTP & CTP (nucleic acids synthesis)

Question 12

ATP hydrolyzed to ADP and Pi for energy-demanding processes.

Answer 12

ATP-ADP Cycle

Question 13

Three key processes in ATP-ADP cycle during exercise

Answer 13

Movement, active transport, signal amplification

Question 14

What happens during active transport?

Answer 14

molecules or ions move across a cell membrane against a concentration gradient

Question 15

What happens during signal amplification?

Answer 15

enhanced secretion of hormones (hormones play a role in signaling and energy mobilization)

Question 16

How do anabolic processes act during exercise?

Answer 16

they are mostly inhibited (catabolic processes dominate to provide immediate energy)
