Digestion
The conversion of good into simple bio molecules
Zymogens
Proenzymes
Alpha amylase
Digests carbohydrates
Bile salts
Insert into emulsions to facilitate lipase action
Chylomicron
Transports dietary lipids from intestinal cells to elsewhere in body
Lipase
Hydrolyze lipids
Why is digestion important
Breaks food to simpler so can go into intestine and get bio molecules for pathways
Why does denaturing cause better digestion
Denauting proteins unravels so more efficient
How are sugars digested
Alpha amylase hydrolyzes the linkage and simple sugars absorbed in intestine
How are lipids made accessible to digest
Convert to lipid droplets with bile salts
emulsions (lipid droplets and water) are accessible and carried in micelles to intestinal walls
When is free energy at minimum
At equilibrium
Anabolic electron carrier
NADP+
Catabolic electron carrier
NAD+
Activated carrier of 2 carbon fragments
Coenzyme A
Which needs energy and which relaxes sea
Anabolism requires
Catabolism releases
Amphibolic reaction
Used in anabolism and catabolism
What contributes to transfer of phosphate
Charge repulsion
Increase Resonance stability
Increase entropy
Stabilization by hydration shells
Structure common to ATP NAD FAD CoA
ADP unit
Most reduced would have
More hydrogen bonds
Less oxygen bonds
