You sure are energetic
gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, chemical potential energy, electrical potential energy, internal energy, nuclear energy, electromagnetic radiation p106
thousands of chemical reactions that allow living things to cycle matter and achieve energy flow
metabolism p107
atp 108
goal of cellular respiration
make atp 111
the most important of the photoactive molecules
chlorophyll 128
this is the energy of bodies in motion
kinetic energy 106
this is the process where one or more molecules (reactants) is transformed into one or more different molecules (products) by the breaking and forming chemical bonds
chemical reaction 107
exothermic 108
the process that breaks down macromolecules into usable building blocks
catabolism 111
these two energy processes occur in the absence of oxygen
anaerobic respiration and fermentation 122-123
massless energy that exists in a spectrum of wavelengths.
electromagnetic radiation 106
other molecules that facilitate a reaction without being themselves transformed
catalyst 107
chemical reactions that absorb energy
endothermic 108
in opposition to catabolism, other reactions take the building blocks and build macromolecules
anabolism 111
the two possible by products of fermentation are:
lactate and ethanol 125
energy contained in the gravitational attraction between two objects
gravitational potential energy
a reaction in which fuel combines with oxygen gas to yield carbon dioxide and water
combustion 107
these lower the activation energy so that chemical reactions can proceed
this sugar breaking reaction occurs in the cytosol
glycolysis 113
this occurs in microorganisms that use molecules other than oxygen to accept electrons from their etc
anaerobic respiration
the ability to do mechanical work
energy 106
this type of reaction, water serves as a reactant that slices another molecule in two, resulting in smaller product molecules
hydrolysis
pertaining to enzymes, this is an important method of preventing chemical reactions from making too many product molecules
feedback inhibition 110
this amazing enzyme "charges up" used up ADP molecules converting them back to ATP
ATP synthase p114
the energy absorbed from ______ allows chlorophyll molecules to power the process of photosynthesis
sun/sunlight 120
