Role of Enzymes
Proteins molecules that facilitate a chemical reaction, including metabolic ones, by lowering the energy needed for the reaction to take place
What is an Enzyme
Pyruvate must be converted to this molecule prior to its' acceptance into the Krebs cycle.
What is Acetyl Co-A
This is the main site of ATP synthesis in the body
What is the mitochondria
The oxygen taken in above resting values after exercise
What is oxygen debt
Although reactions can occur without an enzyme if there is sufficient energy, the enzyme lowers the energy necessary for the reaction to take place
What is energy of activity
This Sequence of reactions is in a living organism which oxidation of acetic acid or acetyl providing energy
what is the kreb cycle
Two ATP molecules are synthesized in the cytoplasm due to the conversion of this molecule into pyruvate
What is Glucose
refers to the condition in which all the energy needed is provided by aerobic metabolism
What is steady state
What is a catabolic reaction
Breaking down a fatty acid chain within the mitochondria by cutting off 2 carbon units to form acetyl CoA
What is beta oxidation
These 3 systems work together to create ATP in the body
Glycolysis, Kreb cycle, electron transplant chain
What is oxygen deficit
One product molecule is formed from two substrate molecules, which requires energy.
What is an anabolic reaction
The amount of molecules need for acetyl CoA following 1 cycle of the Krebs cycle that is involved in converting acetyl CoA into citrate
What is 1
Adenine, Ribose, 2 phosphate groups are the structure of this molecule
What is adp
EPOC stands for this
What is Excess postoxygen consumption
If an enzyme regulates the production of a product molecule AB from substrates A and B, the reaction can produce AB or A and B.
What is the mass action effect
These are the electron carriers in energy extraction
What is NAD+ and FAD
This system can create anywhere from 24-28 ATP from the Krebs cycle from one molecule of glucose
What is Oxidative phosphorylation
The percent of lactate production during exercise that is aerobically metabolized
What is 70%
