Crossword CPA #8 Flashcards
lack of this molecule will force you to use fermentation instead of cellular respiration
final electron acceptor
step of cellular respiration; 2 pyruvic acids are converted into 2 identical molecules that can enter the krebs cycle; step has a net of zero ATPs but 2 co2 are released and 2 NADH are formed
synthesis of Acetyl-CoA
site other than the active site that a noncompetitive inhibitor binds to in/on enzyme
allosteric
type of inhibitor that binds and blocks an enzymes active site; competes with substrate
competitive
type of reaction that breaks molecules down into building blocks; exergonic reaction
catabolic
this happens to the electron acceptor in a redox reaction
reduced
all of the catabolic and anabolic and exchange reactions in the body
metabolism
suffix sometimes added to protein names to indicate thy are enzymes
-ase
chemicals that increase the likelihood of a reaction but are not permanately changed in the process (ie enzymes)
catalysts
step of cellular respiration; electron carriers drop off thier hydrogen ions and electrons here; results in 34 net ATP
electron transport chain
point at which it is not useful to add more substrate/enzymes to a reaction
saturation
light, water, and co2 are used to make glucose, o2, and ATP
photosynthesis
this happens to the electron donor in a redox reaction
oxidized
location in/on enzyme that interacts with a substrate
active site
abbreviation for reactions in which a molecule loses an electron to another molecule
redox
