Document Summary

Organisms use energy to build complex biological molecules, maintain their structure, and for motility. Two sources of energy available to organisms: electromagnetic, chemical. Stored in molecules, usually held in electron orbitals. Electron orbital energy is stored in molecular bonds: different bonds = different amounts of energy stored. In atp, energy is stored in the structure of the molecule and released when the molecule is cleaved to form adp and phosphate e. g. glucose: 6 co2 and 6 h2o + 686 kcal energy/mol. In aerobic respiration, this energy is captured to make atp. Sum total of all chemical changes that occur in cells. Each reaction is catalyzed by a specific enzyme. Compounds formed in each step along the pathway are metabolites. Synthesis of large molecules by chemically bonding together small molecules. The early earth was populated by anaerobes, which captured and utilized energy by oxygen- independent metabolism. Oxygen accumulated in the primitive atmosphere after cyanobacteria appeared.

I know that this alot of questions, but it's kinda a last ditch effort. these are the last 42 definitions i have left to answer out of 500 question for my final exam study guide. so whatever help i can get is fine. No explanations needed just what each definition is explaining and thanks in advance ladies and gentlemen.
