Vocab
what is all the chemical reaction within each cell of an organism
Metabolism
increasing temperature increases the rate of the reaction
Temperature
absorbs energy (in the form of light or heat) ex. photosynthesis
Endothermic
Nitrigen Base, sugar ring, 3 phosphate groups held together with energy bonds
ATP structure
eat only meat
Carnivores
what is an energy-carrying molecule that carries/stores energy for cell functions
ATP/ Adenosine Triphosphate
pH
mostly protiens that speed up biochemical reactions by lowering the activation energy
Enzyme
Adenosine Triphosphate
ATP
Also called autotrophs
get energy from non-living sources
most capture energy during photosynthesis to make simple sugars
Producers
What shows multiple food chains at once, and how they interconnect
Food webs
speed up reactions (like enzymes)
Catalysts
substances that are made by a chemical reaction
Products
becomes ATP when a phosphate group is added
ADP
also called heterotrophs
get energy from living or once living organisms
Consumers
What eats other organisms to get their energy
Consumers
slows down reaction
Competative Inhibitor
releases energy(in the form of heat or light) ex. Cellular respiration
Exothermic
movement of ions down a concentration gradient
Chemiosmosis
trace a single flow of energy and show trophic levels
Food chains
What are the 4 types of consumers
Carnivores, Herbivores, Omnivores, Detritivores
molecules that help the enzyme to be moved effectively
coenzyme/cofactors
substances that are changed during chemical reaction
Reactants
can get 36 ATP from 1 glucose molecule
store 4 cal/g of energy
Carbohydrates
models that show how energy flows through an ecosystem
Trophic Pyrimids
