Metabolism Flashcards
1
Q
what is metabolism
A
chemical processes that occur with in an organism to maintain life
=> thermodynamically favourable reactions drive unfavourable ones
2
Q
ATP production
A
C6H12O6 + 36ADP + 36 Pi + 36H+ + 6O2 –> 6CO2 + 36 ATP + 42H2O
3
Q
Glycolysis (cystol)
A
Glucose –> 2ATP + Pyruvate
4
Q
Citric acid cycle ( mitochondrial matrix)
A
Pyruvate –> 2 ATP + NADH + FADH2 + CO2 + H2O
5
Q
Oxidative phosphorylation (mitochondrial cistae)
A
NADH + FADH2 –> 26ATP + NAD+ +FAD
6
Q
ways enzymes catalyse biochem pathways
A
loss of CO2
use of co enzmyes
redox using NAD+, FAD, Fe-S clusters
