Definitions
The capacity of an object to cause a change which can be transferred to another object (used to do work)
What is energy?
Energy associated with the motion of an object
What is Kinetic Energy?
A chemical reaction in which water is used to break down a compound breaking a covalent bond by inserting a water molecule across it
What is Hydrolysis?
The process by which organisms use oxygen to break down food molecules to get chemical energy for cell functions
What is Cellular Respiration?
What is the Cytoplasm?
A net release of free energy!
What is exergonic?
Energy that matter possesses because of its location or structure that is not kinetic
What is potential energy?
Cells proteins harness energy released during ATP hydrolysis to perform 3 main uses:
What is Chemical, Transport, and Mechanical?
The first step of cellular respiration is:
What is Glycolysis?
All 10 reaction of glycolysis occur in:
What is Cytosol?
Absorbs free energy!
What is endergonic?
In this metabolic pathway, small molecules are assembled into large ones. Energy is required.
What is Anabolic?
The process of ATP becoming ADP is endergonic.
a) True
b) False
False. The process of ATP becoming ADP is exergonic.
The second step of Cellular Respiration is:
What is the Krebs Cycle/Citric Acid Cycle?
Krebs/Citric Acid Cycle is ______, which means it requires oxygen.
What is Aerobic?
A chemical reaction that happens in organisms.
What is Metabolism?
In this metabolic pathway, large molecules are broken down into small ones. Energy is released.
What is Catabolic?
The three types of hydrolysis are:
What are salt, acid, and base hydrolysis?
In glycolysis, six-carbon glucose molecules are broken in half to produce small, three-carbon sugars called pyruvates.
a. True
b. False
True. Six-carbon glucose molecules are split in half during the glycolysis process to create pyruvates, which are tiny, three-carbon sugars.
Glycolysis is ______, which means that is requires no oxygen.
What is Anaerobic?
The use of exergonic processes to drive an endergonic one
What is energy coupling?
This process takes place throughout the body's cells.
Where Does Cellular Energy Production Take Place?
Hydrolysis breaks down the bonds the bonds in between the phosphate group of ATP:
a) True
b) False
The chemical formula for cellular respiration is:
What is C6H12O6 + 6 O2--> 6 CO2+ 6H2O + Energy (ATP+heat).
Occurs in the inner mitochondrial membrane
What is Electron Transport Chain?
