Metabolism

Question 1

Metabolism

Answer 1

All the chemical reactions taking place in the body

Question 2

Catabolic aka decomposition

Answer 2

Reactions that break down complex molecules into simpler ones

Question 3

Anabolic aka synthesis

Answer 3

Reactions that combine simple molecules to make complex molecules

Question 4

Metabolic reasction

Answer 4

metabolism results from ATP breakdown reactions, utilize it to build up molecules

Question 5

Oxidation

Answer 5

when you pull electrons and protons, off of a molecule

Question 6

reduction

Answer 6

when you add protons or electrons onto a molecule

Question 7

coenzymes

Answer 7

molecules in the cell that pick up hydrogen and electrons and give them off

Question 8

glucose metabolism

Answer 8

Glucose is metabolized, break down, through the metabolism you produce ATP and this results in amino acid synthesis, glycogen synthesis and triglerycin synthesis

Question 9

Facilitated diffusion

Answer 9

Glucose must pass through the plasma membrane to be used by the cell

Question 10

Cellular respiration

fig. 25.2

Answer 10

Glycolosis
Formation of the metal coenzyme A 
Krebs cycle 
Electron transport chain reactions

Question 11

Glycolosis

Answer 11

involves 10 reactions
