Part 1 Flashcards
The sum of all chemical
reactions involved in maintaining the
dynamic state of a cell or organism.
Metabolism
A series of biochemical
reactions.
Pathway
The process of
breaking down large nutrient
molecules into smaller molecules
with the concurrent production of energy.
Catabolism
The process of
synthesizing larger molecules from
smaller ones.
Anabolism
Metabolism is the sum of catabolism and anabolism. TRUE OR FALSE
True
Where replication of DNA takes place.
Nucleus
Remove damaged cellular components and some
unwanted foreign materials.
Lysosomes
Package and process proteins for secretion and
delivery to other cellular components.
Golgi bodies
Organelles in which the common catabolic pathway
takes place in higher organisms; the purpose of this catabolic pathway is to convert the energy stored in food molecules into
energy stored in molecules of ATP
Mithochondria
What are the two parts to the common catabolic pathway
- Citric acid cycle
- Oxidative phosphorylation
What is the other name of citric acid cycle
-Tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA)
-Krebs cycle
Electron transport chain and phosphorylation
oxidative phosphorylation.
