1- can change the rate of molecular motion, 2. can cause changes in the shape of an enzyme

32
Q

what is a denatured enzyme?

A

one whose protein structure has been permanently changed so that it has lost its original bichemical properties

33
Q

enzymatic competition

A

occurs whenever there are several kinds of enzymes available to combine with the same substrate molecule

34
Q

competitive inhibition

A

when the inhibitor molecule competes with the normal substrate for the active site of the enzyme

35
Q

what is an inhibitor

A

a molecule that attaches itself to an enzyme and interferes with that enzyme’s ability to form an enzyme substrate complex

36
Q

catabolism vs anabolism

A

c-the breakdown of compounds, a-the synthesis of new, larger compounds

37
Q

ATP is generated when hydrogen ions flow from a ___ to a ___ concentration after they have been pumped from one side of the membrane to the other

A

higher, lower

38
Q

autotrophs

A

organisms that are able to use basic energy sourses, such as sunlight, to make energy-containing organic molecules from inorganic raw materials

39
Q

two types of autotrophs:

A
  1. photosynthetic (those that use light) 2. chemisynthetic (those that use inorganic chemical reactions)
40
Q

heterotrophs

A

all organisms that require organic molecules such as food - carbs, fats, proteins

41
Q

aerobic cellular respiration

A

oxygen is involved in the breakdown of glucose into carbon dioxide and water

42
Q

3 phases of cellular respiration

A

glycolysis (completed with or without O2) anaerobic = fermentation. aerobic = krebs cycle —> electron transport chain

43
Q

glycolysis

A

the process of glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of a cell where glucose (C6H12O6) enters a series of reactions that: 1. require the use of 2 ATPs 2. ultimately results in the formation of 4 ATPs 3. results in the formation of 2 molecules of pyruvic acid (CH3COCOOH)
Breaks down glucose with the release of electrons and formation of ATP

44
Q

eukaryotic krebs cycle

A

completes the breakdown of pyruvic acid with the release of carbon dioxide, electrons and ATP
*The Krebs cycle takes place within the mitochondria. *For every 1 acetyl-CoA molecule that enters the Krebs cycle: 1. 3 carbons from a pyruvate are converted to acetyl-CoA and are released as carbon dioxide (CO2). 2. 5 pairs of hydrogens become attached to hydrogen carriers to become 4 NADHs and 1 FADH2. 3. 1 ATP is generated

45
Q

eukaryotic electron-transport system

A

series of enzyme controlled rxns that convert kinetic energy of hydrogen electrons to ATP
the electron-transport system takes place within the mitochondrion, where: 1. oxygen is used up as the oxygen atoms accept hydrogens from NADH and FADH2 forming water (H2O). 2. NAD+ and FAD are released to be used over again.3. 32 ATPs are produced

46
Q

summary of alcohol fermentation

A
  1. starts with glycolysis
    a. glucose is metabolized to pyruvic acid b. a net of 2 ATPs is made
  2. during alcoholic fermentation:
    a. pyruvic acid is reduced to form ethanol b. carbon dioxide is released
  3. yeasts do this in:
    a. leavened bread
    b. sparkling wine
47
Q

summary of lactic acid fermentation

A
  1. starts with glycolysis a. glucose is metabolized to pyruvic acid b. a net of 2 ATPs is made 2. during lactic acid fermentationa. pyruvic acid is reduced to form lactic acid b. no carbon dioxide is released 3. muscle cells have the enzymes to do this, but brain cells do not. a. muscle cells can survive brief periods of oxygen deprivation, but brain cells cannot. b. lactic acid “burns” in muscles
48
Q

summary of fat respiration

A
  1. fats are broken down into glycerol and fatty acids 2. glycerol is converted to glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate a. then enters glycolysis 3. fatty acids a. are converted to acetyl-CoA b. enter krebs cycle 4. each molecule of fat fuels the formation of many more ATP than glucose. this makes it a good energy-storage molecule
49
Q

summary of protein respiration

A

1.proteins are digested into amino acids 2. amino acids have the amino group removed, a.generate a keto acid (acetic acid, pyruvic acid, etc.) b. enter the krebs cycle at the appropriate place

an oxygen, water

51
Q

In a complete accounting of all the ATPs produced in aerobic cellular respiration in eukaryotic cells, there are a total of ____ ATPs: ____ from the ETS, ____from glycolysis, and ____ from the krebs cycle

A

urea or uric acid

55
Q

the ATP generating process in mitochondria works by using what?

A

proton pump

56
Q
