Lecture 3 Flashcards
Define metabolism and ATP in cell metabolism
1.Group of chemical reactions that acquires, store and releases energy into cells of body
2. ATP serves as the primary source of energy for all cellular activity
What is the process of cellular respiration?
1.Releases chemical bond energy
2.This energy is stored in a molecule called ATP
3 series of reactions in cellular respirations?
1.Glycolisis-2 ATP-occurs in cytosol
2.Citric acid cycle-2 ATP-in mitochondria
3. Electron transport chain-28 ATP-in mitochondria
4.32 ATP from one glucose molecule
Cellular respirtation equation?
C6H12O6+6O2=6CO2+6H2O+energy +glucose+oxygen=carbon dioxide +water+ATP
Passive movement in and out of the cell
- Requires no energy from cell
2.Move substances from a region of high to low
Facilitated diffusion
1.Use membrane proteins to carry substances across the phospholid bilayer.
2.number of carrier molecules in membrane limits the rate of process
Filtration
1.Forced through cell membrane
2.Blood pressure is used as force of filtration
What substances use passive transport?
Oxygen, carbon dioxide, ions, glucose, amino acids
Osmosis
1.Water moves across a permeable membrane from high to low concentration
Tonicity
1.Dissolved solutes in a solution surrounding a cell
2. Affects size of cell
Isotonic solution
1.A solution with the same osmotic pressure as body fluids
2.0.9 10 NACL is isotonic to human cells
3. Water moves into and out of cell at the same rate
Hypertonic solution
- Solution with higher osmotic pressure
- Water mill move out of cells, they will shrink
Hypotonic
1.Water moves into cell
2. Cells gain water and swell
Active transport
- Moving substances from low to high and requires ATP as energy
2.Substances moved by active transport Na+ K+ Ca+2 H+, some sugars and amino acids
Excocytosis
1.Molecules are released out of the cell by a vesicle
