Metabolism Flashcards
what is Anabolic?
Stores energy and build complex molecule/ substance
*Catabolic
Relaxes/ releases energy and breaks down complex molecules
*Kinethic
anything with motion
*Potential
balance charge battery, stored energy
chemical
ATP, potential energy stored withing chemical bonds
G
free energy
H
enthalpy
T
Temperature
S
Entronpy
Endergonic
Observes and store energy
is a non-spontaneous; product
Energy > reactanct energy
*Exergonic
Release energy
spontanious reaction
product energy is < less than our reactant energy is (triangle) G is negative
*Exergonic
Release energy
spontanious reaction
product energy is < less than our reactant energy is (triangle) G is negative
Activation Energy
require to get a reaction energy
Substrate
reactant the enzyme act on
Active snite
Region on the enzyme where the substrate bond (inducced)
Enzyme Specificity
are protein
coenzymes
organic
cofactors
iron, metal ions
Allosteric Regulation
another cite to them
Inhibition
inhibitor molecule binds to the Alister site and stabolises the inactive form
ACTIVATION
The activator molecule binds to the all-osteric site and stabilizes the active form
Feed back inhibition
The end product of metabolism series serves as the allosteric inhibitor or the first enzyme in the series
*1st law Thermodynamic
Energy cannot be created or destroyed it changes form
*2nd Law Thermodynamic
Entropy is always increasing, some energy is lost in a form that is unusable
