Document Summary

Metabolism- sum of all chemical reactions and e transformation in an organism. Metabolic pathway- begins with specific molecule, ends with product. Energy (e): the capacity to do work (or supply heat) Potential energy- stored e, the capacity to do work. 1st law of thermodynamics- e cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another conservation of e. 2nd law of thermodynamics- every e transfer or transformation increase entropy in the universe. Entropy (s)- measure of disorder randomness. (usually heat) (1) (2) Free energy (g)- e available to do work. The stud that we can keep and sue in. biological systems.

Kinetic energy release when bonds are broken, have a negative free energy (less energy stored in products). Summary: sunlight- source of e for biological systems. Has 3 phosphate groups and this is where most energy is stored.
