Metabolism, Oxidation, and Reduction(energy-transfer reaction in the human body) Flashcards
(14 cards)
Metabolism has two division
- Catabolism
2. Anabolism
Energy- releasing reaction are called__
exergonic reaction
Reaction that require an energy input
endergonic reaction
one of metabolism, consists of energy releasing decomposition reaction. break covalent bond and, produce small molecules from large one, and releases anergy.
Catabolism
one of metabolism, consist of energy-storing synthesis reactions, such as the production of protein or fat.
Anabolism
___ is molecule gives up electrons and releases energy,
loss electron
Oxydation
A molecules is oxidized by oxidation process, and whatever molecule take electrons from it is an_____.
( substance that is reduced)
oxidizing agent (electron accepter)
____ is a chemical reaction in which a molecule gains electrons and energy. when a molecule accepts electrons, it is said to be reduced; a molecule that donates electron to another is called ____
(GER) gain electron R
Reduction
donate electron
reducing agent
reaction such as protein and glycogen synthesis, in which tow or more smaller molecules are combined into a larger one.
synthesis
a reaction such as digestion and cell respiration, in which larger molecules are broke down into smaller ones.
Decomposition
transfer of electrons from one atom to another
Ionization
They are proton donor
acid
They are proton accepter
base
