Unite 3 Topic 1-4

QuestionAnswer
Metabolism all of the chemical reactions in an organism
Metabolic Pathways Series of chemicals reactions that either build or break down complex molecules
Catabolic Pathway release energy by breaking down complex molecules into simpler compounds
Anabolic Pathways Consume energy to build complicated molecules from simpler compounds.
Energy The ability to do work
Kinetic Energy Motion
Thermal Energy movement of atoms or molecules
Potential Energy Store Energy
Chemical Energy Potential energy available for release in a chemical reaction
Thermodynamics The study of energy transformations in matter
1st Law Energy can be transferred or transformed. Energy cannot be created or destroyed .
2nd Law Energy transformation increases the entropy of the universe. During energy transfers or transformations, some energy is unable and often lose as heat
entropy a measure of quality of energy
spontaneously no outside input of energy is required
Exergonic Reaction release energy G<0
Endergonic Reaction absorb energy G>0
Mechanical movement(beating cilia, movement of chromosomes, contraction of molecules cells)
Transport pumping substance across membrane against spontaneous movement
Chemical synthesis of molecules(building, polymers from monomers )
Adenosine Triphosphate molecules that organism use as a source of energy to perform work
Phosphorylation the released phosphate move to another molecules to give energy
Regeneration ATP ADP can be regenerated to ATP via the ATP cycle
Enzymes Macromolecules that catalyzed(speed up) reactions by lowering the activation energy
Substrate the enzyme acts on a reactant.
Induced Fit enzyme will change shape of their active site to allow the substrate to bind better
Enzyme Catabolism Enzyme helps break down complex molecules
Enzyme Anabolism Enzymes help build complex molecules
Effects on Enzymes Temp, pH, chemical

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
