| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| uses energy to combine smaller molecules to make larger ones: | anabolic |
| catabolic releases energy: true or false | true |
| the second law of thermodynamics says: | when energy is transferred, some i lost as kinetic energy or heat energy |
| if endergonic is taking in energy, then exergonic is: | releasing energy |
| photosynthesis is "uphill" because... | it requires energy to combine smaller molecules to make larger ones *(CO2 + H2O = glucose) |
| true or false: any substrate can fit in any enzyme | false: they have to match; each substrate is unique and will fit only the matching enzyme |
| what is activation energy? | it induces the reaction by providing the required amount |
| cellular respiration is what kind of reaction and why? | it is a redox reaction b/c oxidation and reduction both occur simultaneously. |
| oxidizes pyruvate to make carbon dioxide | citric acid cycle |
| what is ATP made up of? | one adenine, one ribose, and three phosphate |
| what does ETC stand for and what does it do? | electron transport chain: pumps protons into the inter membrane space of the mitochondria (by chemiosmosis) |
| define glycolosis: | when glucose id divide into two pyruvates |
| cellular respiration is anaerobic or aerobic? | aerobic |
| anaerobic does not use what gas? | oxygen |
| this process goes from large to small, regenerates NAD+, is exergonic and catabolic: | fermentation |
