Document Summary

Biol 130 lecture 6 unit 4 cellular respiration & chemiosmosis. Cellular respiration: how cells obtain energy from food, cells require energy for endergonic reactions to occur, sugars are oxidized into co2 and h2o, the energy produced from that reaction is stored in atp and nadh. Activated carrier molecules: contain one or more high energy content bonds and provide the energy needed for endergonic reactions in the body, all condensation reactions of macromolecules are endergonic; therefore they need energy from atp. Electron carriers: nadh, nadph, fadh, they are coenzymes that carry electrons from one reaction to another, harvest energy during glucose oxidation. Obtaining energy from food: catabolism: the breakdown of complex molecules into simpler ones (exergonic, releases energy, some of the energy produced is lost to heat, anabolism: assembly of complex molecules (endergonic, require energy) Extracting energy from food: stage 1: digestion, digestive enzymes in the stomach, and small intestine break down macromolecules into their subunits.
