Question 1

It is the study of energy transformation that accompanies biochemical reaction.

Answer 1

Bioenergetics

Question 2

It describes the transfer and utilization of energy in biological system

Answer 2

Bioenergetics

Question 3

Bioenergetics concerns the mechanism or how much time is needed for the chemical change to take place ( Rate) (T or F)
Write the correct answer

Answer 3

F,it is only concerns the initial and final energy state of reaction components.

Question 4

Is the energy in asystem available to do useful work. It is stored within the structure of the molecule.

Answer 4

Free energy

Question 5

Is the capacity of the molecule to release energy in a chemical reaction. Hence, it provide a measure of the energetic possibility of a chemical reaction to take place

Answer 5

Free energy

Question 6

Is the amount of free energy derived from complete oxidation of food to CO2 +H2O.

Answer 6

Caloric value

Question 7

What does -🔺️G mean ?

Answer 7

Means loss of energy and reaction goes spontaneously. The reaction is exergonic

Question 8

What does +🔺️G mean?

Answer 8

Means gain of energy and reaction is not spontaneously going. The reaction is endergonic.
