Q

Cells

A

With the expect ion to viruses every form of life earth is either a cell or composed of a cell. All living things are made up of cells, all cells come from precious cells

16
Q

Endergonic Reactions

A

require energy, products contain more energy than the reactants

17
Q

The 1st law of thermodynamics

A

Energy is never created or destroyed but is only transformed.

18
Q

The 2nd law of thermodynamics

A

energy transfer always results in a greater amount of disorder in the universe

19
Q

Coupled Reaction

A

A chemical reaction in which an exergonic reaction powers an endergonic reaction

20
Q

ATP

A

the most important energy transfer molecule in living things. Drives chemical reactions by donating one of its three phosphate groups to them. ATP becomes the two phosphate molecule adenosine diphosphate (ADP). To become ATP ADP must have a third phosphate group attached to it.

21
Q

Enzyme

A

A type of protein that accelerates the rate at which a chemical reaction takes places in an organism.

22
Q

Activation Energy

A

The energy required to initiate a chemical reaction

23
Q

Metabolic Pathway

A

A set of enzymatically controlled steps that results in the completion of a product or process in an organism.

24
Q

Allosteric Regulation

A

The regulation of an enzyme’s activity by means of molecule binding to a site on the enzyme other than its active site

25
Q

Active Transport

A

any movement of molecules or ions across a cell membrane that requires the expenditure of energy

26
Q

Passive Transport

A

any movement of molecules or ions across a cell membrane that does not require the expenditure of energy
