(131 cards)
that break down large, complex molecules to provide energy and smaller molecules.
catabolic reactions
that use ATP energy to build larger molecules.
anabolic reactions
Digestion and hydrolysis break down large molecules to smaller ones that enter the bloodstream
Stage 1 Catabolic reactions
Within the cells, degradation breaks down molecules to two- and three-carbon compounds
Stage 2 Catabolic reactions
Oxidation of small molecules in the citric acid cycle and electron transport provides ATP energy.
Stage 3 Catabolic reaction
In the three stages of catabolism, large molecules from foods are digested and degraded to provide smaller molecules that can be ___ to produce energy.
oxidized
Cells in plants and animals are known as ___ cells, which have a nucleus that contains DNA.
eukaryotic
a cell membrane separates the materials inside the cell from the aqueous environment surrounding the cell.
the cell nucleus contains the genes that control DNA replication and protein synthesis.
the cytosol, or fluid part of the cell, contains electrolytes and enzymes that catalyze chemical reactions in the cell.
Animal cells
The ATP molecule, composed of ___, hydrolyzes to form ADP and AMP along with a release of energy.
the base adenine, a ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups
The hydrolysis of ATP to ADP releases __ kcal (31 kJ) per mole
7.3
The hydrolysis of ADP to AMP releases __ kcal (31 kJ) per mole
7.3
When ATP __, the energy released can be used to drive an energy-requiring reaction
hydrolyzes
used in anabolic reactions
the energy-storage molecule
combined with energy-requiring reactions
ATP
hydrolysis products
ADP + Pi
Coenzyme A (CoA) is made up of several components: pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), phosphorylated ADP, and ___
aminoethanethiol
Metabolic reactions that extract energy from food involve both ___ reactions
oxidation and reduction
involves the loss of hydrogen or electrons by a substance or an increase in the number of bonds to oxygen
Oxidation
gain of hydrogen ions and electrons or a decrease in the number of bonds to oxygen
Reduction
In both types of reactions, coenzymes are required to carry the ___ and electrons from or to the reacting substrate.
hydrogen ions
A coenzyme that gains hydrogen ions and electrons is __, whereas a coenzyme that loses hydrogen ions and electrons to a substrate is __
reduced
oxidized
an important coenzyme in which the vitamin niacin provides the nicotinamide group, which is bonded to ribose and the nucleotide adenosine diphosphate (ADP).
NAD+, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide,
required in dehydrogenation reactions that produce carbon–oxygen double bonds, such as the oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones
NAD+, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide
The ___ form of NAD+ undergoes reduction when a carbon atom in the nicotinamide ring reacts with 2H (two hydrogen ions and two electrons), leaving one H+.
oxidized
used in anabolic reactions, such as lipid and nucleic acid synthesis
NADP+, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate
