52 views2 pages

Document Summary

The 3 types of cellular work are powered by the hydrolysis of atp. In the cell, the energy from the exergonic reaction of atp hydrolysis can be used to drive an exergonic reaction. Transferring a phosphate group to some other molecule. Recipient molecule is now called a phosphorylated intermediate. Atp is a renewable resource that is regenerated by addition of a phosphate group to. The energy to phosphorylate adp comes from catabolic reactions in the cell. The atp cycle is a revolving door through which energy passes during its transfer from catabolic to anabolic pathways. Enzymes speed up metabolic reactions by lowering energy barriers. A catalyst is a chemical agent that speeds up a reaction without being consumed by the reaction. There at the beginning and end of the reaction. Ex. sucrase is an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of sucrose. Every chemical reaction between molecules involves bond breaking and bond forming.
