Module 08: Matter and Energy Transformation Flashcards
Is synthesis of ATP exergonic or endergonic?
Endergonic (ΔG > 0)
Is hydrolysis of ATP exergonic or endergonic?
Exergonic (ΔG < 0)
What is the formula and ΔG of ATP hydrolysis?
ATP4- + H2O —> ADP3- + Pi2- + H+
ΔG = -7.3 kcal/mol
What is the formula and ΔG of ATP synthesis?
ADP3- + Pi2- + H+ —> ATP4- + H2O
ΔG = +7.3 kcal/mol
What two molecules comprise adenosine in ATP?
Adenine and ribose
Which phosphate of ATP is hydrolyzed?
The gamma-phosphate
What are the three types of pluripotent stem cells?
Mesoderm (middle), endoderm (internal), and ectoderm (external)
What are some cell types that differentiate from the mesoderm layer?
Kidney tubule cells, red blood cells, and muscle cells (cardiac, skeletal, and smooth)
What are three cell types that differentiate from the endoderm layer?
Lung cells, pancreatic cells, and thyroid cells
What are three cell types that differentiate from the ectoderm layer?
Skin cells (epidermis), pigment cells, and neurons
What is the order of stem cell differentiation?
Totipotent embryonic —> pluripotent embryonic —> multipotent —> terminally differentiated
What happens to spare glucose in the body?
Polymerized into glycogen in the liver and muscle
What is catabolism?
Breakdown of molecules
What is anabolism?
Buildup/polymerization of molecules
What is the energy release of glucose oxidation?
ΔG = -686 kcal/mol
