Unit 3 Pre Review Flashcards
AP Biology
Energy available to do work
Gibbs Free Energy
What is the formula for Gibbs Free Energy?
ΔG = ΔH -TΔS
ΔG means
Change in Gibbs Free Energy
ΔH means
Change in Enthaply or Heat
T means
Temperature (K)
ΔS
Change in Entropy (the chaos)
What is the Delta Gibbs formula?
ΔG = ΔGf - ΔGi
ΔGf means
Final Gibbs
ΔGi means
Inital Gibbs
Energy has to enter the system (has to be brought in)
Endergonic Reaction
- Start with low energy, then gaining energy
- Not spontaneous
- Absorbs energy
Endergonic Reaction
Products end with more energy than reactants
Endergonic Reaction
Energy has to leave the system (to be let out)
Exergonic Reaction
- Spontaneous
- Releases Energy
Exergonic Reaction
Biologival Catalyst
Speeds up chemical reactions
Reduces the activation energy
Function of Enzymes
_______ are proteins
Enzymes
Are not consumed by the reaction
Have no effect on the change in Gibbs Free Energy
Enzymes
_________ binds to the active site of an enzyme
Substrate
Compete for the bind of the active site
Competitive Inhibitors
Example of a Competitive Inhibitor
Morphine as it replaces Endorphines
Binds to an allosteric (not original) site causing the active site to change shape
Noncompetitive Inhibitors
When a protein loses it’s shape and stops working properly. This could be caused by a change in Temperature, PH activity, or Certain Chemicals
Denaturation
Location: Cytosol (Both Prokaryote and Eukaryote)
Starting Material: Glucose
Products: 2 Pyruvate, 2 NADH, 2 ATP
Breaking a 6 carbon structure to 2- 3 carbon structures
Glycolysis
(Breaking Sugar)
Location: Mitochondrial Matrix
Starting Material: Acetyl CoA
Products: 2 CO2
3 NADH
1 FADH2
1 ATP
(Go through the cycle 2 times to break down 1 glucose molecule)
Krebs cycle
