Metabolism Flashcards
1
Q
Endergonic
A
Energy uphill, products store more free energy than reactants, and non spontaneous
2
Q
Exergonic
A
Products have less free energy than reactants, energy downhill, and spontaneous
3
Q
Endergonic is the same as
A
Anabolic
4
Q
Exergonic is the same as
A
Catabolic
5
Q
Three main parts of ATP
A
Ribose (sugar), Adenine (a base), and 3 phosphate groups (negative charge)
6
Q
Anabolic
A
needs energy it build complicated molecules
7
Q
Catabolic
A
releases energy by breaking down complex molecules
8
Q
Dehydration Synthesis
A
Builds larger molecules by binding monomers together via condensation rxns (anabolic)
9
Q
Hydrolysis
A
Breaks apart large molecules via a water molecule to break the bond that holds the monomers together (catabolic)
