Bio 1101 Exam 3

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Energy   the capacity to do work, either actively or stored for later.  
🗑
Exergonic   an energy yielding process- composed of exothermic and exophotic  
🗑
Endergonic   an energy requiring process- composed of endothermic and endophotic  
🗑
Entropy(S)   a measure of randomness in a system  
🗑
Free energy   energy which is available to do work  
🗑
Gibbs free energy exchange   the change n heat minus the change in entropy multiplied by the absolute temperature  
🗑
First law of thermodynamics   the total energy in the universe is constant and therefore energy can NOT be created nor destroyed  
🗑
Second law of thermodynamics   in the universe, the total amount of free energy available for doing work is declining because this energy is being lost in some other energy form  
🗑
Oxidation   loss of an electron  
🗑
Reduction   the gain of an electron  
🗑
Metabolism   the sum of all energy exchanges that occur through chemical reactions  
🗑
Anabolism   all chemical reactions involved in biosynthesis (building up)  
🗑
Catabolism   all chemical reactions involved in the degradation of larger particles (breaking down)  
🗑
Enzymes   water-soluble proteins which lower the activation energy of chemical reactions in living cells  
🗑
Cofactors   change the shape of enzymes to help them fit and process their respective substrate  
🗑
ATP   how your body stores energy  
🗑
Phosphorylation   the process of making ATP  
🗑
Photophosphorylation   the use of light to make ATP  
🗑
Oxidative Phosphorylation   the use of oxygen to make ATP  
🗑
Enzymes are mad up of   amino acid monomers  
🗑
Combination   A+B+E----AB-E----AB+E  
🗑
Dissociation   AB+E----AB-E-----A+B+E  
🗑
Active site   where the enzyme chemically alter the substrate  
🗑
Catalyst   affect but do NOT chemically change themselves during the reaction  
🗑
Enzymes have an optimum temperature   37 degrees C= 98.6 degrees F  
🗑
Irreversible Inhibition   binding of chemically active substance to key R-groups which causes permanent damage/death.  
🗑
Noncompetitive Inhibition   reversible if treated in time; a chemically related substrate occupies another site besides the active site to cause temporary change in the enzymes shape  
🗑
Competitive Inhibition   reversible; a chemically related substrate occupies the active site  
🗑
Allosteric Interaction   the "other shape"; involved in negative feedback control of enzymes/hormones  
🗑
Allosteric Effectors   cofactors, coenzymes, or a product made by the enzyme  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
