No physical mass
How many forms of energy are there?
Several
All form of energy are …………………..?
Intergangeable
State the first law of thermodgnamics ?
The body does not produce, consume, or use up energy rather it transfers into other physiolgic system
What are the sources of energy?
Carbohydrates
Fats
Proteins
What does energy transfers into ?
ATP
What does ATP stand for ?
Adenosine triphosphate
What is metabolism ?
Total of all chemical reactions that occur in the body
What is energy stored in, inorder to be converted into ATP?
Chemical bonds
What is metabolic pathways ?
Series of interrelated, enzymes - catalysed chemical reactions in the body
What are the three stages of a metabolic pathway?
Substrate,
Intermediates
Products
What is a catabolic pathway ?
Releases energy exergonic through breakdown of complex molecule into simpler ones
What is an anabolic pathway ?
Requires energy endergonic to construct comples molecules from simpler ones
ATP energy currency ?
Potential energy within ATP provides for all the cell energy requireing process
What is the formation equasion ATP - requires energy ( endergonic ) ?
ADP + Pi = ATP
What is the breakdown equasion ATP - releases energy (exergonic ) ?
ATP = (ATPace) = ADP + Pi + energy
