Processes
What process uses Glycosis, Intermediate Stage, Citric acid cycle, Electron transport system
(In Order)
What is the Respiration Cycle
The Linking together of multiple glucose molecules through glycogenesis
What is Glycogen
To maintain equilibrium in a reversible reaction, when either a reactant, or a product increases in concentration, this law takes effect.
What is the law of Mass Action
The general measurements used to find how acidic, or basic a solution is
What is Ph
Energy is provided through the breaking apart of this molecule
What is ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate)
The chemical process that removes a water molecule from two simpler molecules to form a more complex one
What is dehydration synthesis
The addition of a phosphate group to a molecule is known as what?
What is Phosphorylation
This type of metabolism produces ATP at a much more efficient rate than its counterpart, however is slower
What is an Aerobic Metabolism
Has both hydrophilic & hydrophobic parts
Ex: Phospholids
What is amphipathic
What is diffusion
What is the movement of water molecules through a semi-permeable membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area of high solute concentration
What is osmosis
What is formed when two amino acids are joined together by a peptide bond during dehydration synthesis?
What is a dipeptide
Simple diffusion & facilitated diffusion are both what types of diffusion
This type of reaction releases free energy
What is an exergonic reaction
An existing ion gradient is used in this process to move molecules from low to high solute concentration
Secondary active transport
The addition of H2O to a chemical bond to break it apart
What is it called when a protein starts to lose its shape & function due to extreme changes in heat or pH
What is Denaturation
What does osmolarity describe?
What is the number of particles in a solution
These two types of inhibition have the ability to block an enzyme from speeding up a reaction from either
A. blocking the substrate from entering
B. Not letting the substrate fulfill its purpose
What is Competitive / Non Competitive (Inhibition)
This is used to store energy (through food) as fat
What is Triglycerides
The breaking down of a food molecule / complex molecule & releasing energy
What is Catabolism
the central example of this is the Na+-K+-ATPase
What is Ficks Law's formula (Flux)
J = D x A x delta C / delta x
(Flux equals diffusion coefficient times area times concentration difference, divided by diffusion distance)
The effect of a solution on cell volume or behavior
What is Tonicity
Throughout the ATP cycle, the goal is to produce as much ATP as possible, how much ATP is produced through Aerobic, as well as Non-Aerobic cycles.
