Term
Energy
Definition
Ability to do work or cause motion
Term
4 types of energy
Definition
  1. potential energy
  2. kinetic energy
  3. chemical energy
  4. activation energy
Term
Potential energy
Definition
stored/positioned/stationary
Term
kinetic energy
Definition
energy in motion
Term
chemical energy
Definition
energy of chemical bonds
Term
activation energy
Definition
energy needed to start a reaction
Term
who provides activtion energy?
Definition
enzymes in the human body
Term
ADP + _____ = ATP
Definition
phosphate group
Term
Describe the ATP, ADP Supply cycle
Definition
describe outloud and check answer in notes
Term
2 properties of enzymes
Definition
  1. are recyclable
  2. denatured by acids and heat
Term
modefied lock and key hypothesis
Definition
when enzymes change to fit substrate
Term
aerobic respiration
Definition
uses glucose to make ATP
Term
4 major steps of aerobic respiration
Definition
  1. glycolysis
  2. formation of acetyl coenzyme A (AC-CoA)
  3. Krebs Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle)
  4. Electron TRansport Chain and Chemiosmosis
Term
glycolysis
Definition
  • splitting of glucose
  • happens within the cytoplasm
  • yields 2 molecules of pyruvic acid and 4 ATP
  • Net gain: 2 ATP
  • anaerobic
Term
anaerobic
Definition
doesn't require oxygen
Term
aerobic
Definition
requires the use of oxygen
Term
formation of AC-CoA
Definition
  • Aerobic
  • happens in the mitochondria
  • 2 pyruvic acids diffuse into the mitochondria
  • 2 acetic acids + 2 coenzyme A --> 2 AC-CoA
Term
Krebs Cycle (Citric Acid Cycle)
Definition
  • Aerobic
  • Within mitochondria
  • 2 molecules of AC-CoA are converted into citric acid
  • Requires 6H2O
  • Produces 4CO2 and 2ATP
Term
Electron transport chain
Definition
  • coenzymes NAD and FAD accept H+ ions to form NADH and FADH
  • NADH and FADH transport H electrons and protons to large protein complexes embedded within the cristae of the mitochondria
  • electron and proton energy is used to combine ADP and a phosphate group --> 32 ATP and 12 H2O molecules
  • ATP is created when the protons pass through a spinning ATP synthase located in the cristae
Term
anaerobic respiration is performed by
Definition
mostly microbes (ex. yeast) and only by plants and animals when they are deprived of oxygen
Term
types of Fermentation
Definition
  • anaerobic respiration
  • lactic acid fermentation
  • alcoholic fermentation
Term
lactic acid fermentation
Definition
  • happens when muscles are deprived of oxygen
  • glucose -> 2pyruvic acids -> lactic acid + 4 ATPs
  • used 2 ATPs for glycolysis
  • net gain: 2 ATPs
Term
alcoholic fermentation
Definition
  • glucose -. 2 pyruvic acid -> ethyl alcohol + 4 ATPs + 2 CO2
  • net gain: 2 ATPs
Term
main energy source
Definition
glucose
Term
glycogen
Definition
stored carbs
Term
3 types of energy sources
Definition
  1. glucose
  2. lipids
  3. protein
Term
3 crossroad compounds
Definition
  1. glucose -> pyruvic acid -> forms AC-CoA -> Krebs -> ETC
  2. Lipis -> Fatty acids +glycerol ->forms AC-CoA -> Krebs -> ETC
  3. Protein -> Amino Acid -> Forms AC-CoA -> Krebs -> ETC
Term
simple formula for cellular respiration
Definition
36 ADP + 35 -P (phosphate group) + C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 ATP
