Q

Explain the NA K active transport chain in relation to atp

A

ATP binds to the sodium causing the gate to open and allow sodium to enter the extracellular space (against its concentration)
At the same time, ATP was split, providing energy to potassium to move into the intracellular space

Q

What would happen it there was no ATP for active ion transport

A

Cell would be in a constant excitatory state
We would need a stronger impulse to depolarize the membrane therefore ATP is important to bring it back to its resting potential

Q

explain the exergonic reaction of ATP in the body at standard conditions

A

Through ATP hydrolysis, you are cleaving a phsopohate bond and RELEASING WORK ENERGY, therefore have a negative gibbs energy value of -7.3 KCAL/mol

38
Q

How much energy is released by cleaving 1 phosphate bond in standard conditions

A

7.3 kcal/mol of energy

39
Q

Explain the endergonic reaction of ATP synthesis

A

Through ADP phosphorylation, you require energy to reattach the phosphate to the ADP therefore it REQUIRES/USES WORK ENERGY.
In order to reattach 1 phosphate, you need 7.3 kcal/mol

40
Q

True or false: The delta g of -7.3 kcal for atp hydrolysis is realistic in the body and why

A

not realistic because it is performed i standard conditions outside the body (1M, 25 celcius, ph=7)

41
Q

true

44
Q

what is the energy difference in breakdown of atp in the body versus standard conditions

in the stndard condition: 7.3 kcal

45
Q

What is the defintion of reaction coupling

A

released energy drives an endergonic reaction

46
Q

true or false: the couple reaction for atp and glucose reactions have a net exercgonic effect so they do not happen spontaneously

A

FALSE, they are exergonic therefore they happen simulataenously

47
Q

true or false: the atp hydrolysis is sponteanous

A

true

48
Q

are endergonic reactions spontaneous

A

no

49
Q

explain the 3 steps of ATP hydrolysis and phosphorylation of glucose

A

1) The atp hydrolysis liberates energy since it is an exergonic reaction
2) the phosphorylation of glucose (glucose+p into glucuse phosphate requires energy
3) when coupled (glucose +ATP > glucose 6 phsophate and ADP) the glucose uses the liberated energy from atp hydrolysis

creatine phosphkinase/creatine kinaase

59
Q

what are the 2 main high energy compounds

A

ATP and creatine phosphate

60
Q

what is the reaction coupling for ATP and phosphoxcreatine

A

As creatine phosphate is being broken down and loses a phosphate group to become creatine, that phosphate is added to ADP to form ATP

61
Q

ture or false, the creatine phsophate energy source is good for long periods of exercise

A

false, only good during first dew minutes of intense muscular contaction
rest comes from oxydation of carbs fats etc

62
Q

do you have more ATP or more creatine phosphate at rest in hour muscle

A

more creatine phosphate

63
Q

explain the coupled reaction for creatine phosphate and atp

A

1) creatine phostphate + h20 > creatine and P
with a -43.4 kcal/mol EXERGONIC REACTION
2) ADP+p > atp + h20 is enderggonic (uses energy from phospho creatine
3) CReatine phopshate + ADP > Creatine + ATP
with a negative gibbs value so reaction happens SPONTEANOUS -12.8
