Document Summary

Anabolic reactions build protein, dna, carbs and lipids. Typically provided in the form of atp. Atp is produced in the catabolic breakdown of organic molecules eaten as food. Maximizes energy capture in energy transfer molecules. Atp hydrolysis (-7. 3 kcal/mol - energy from adp to atp or visa versa) releases energy to drive other reactions. Cells have to continuously generate atp to provide energy for other reactions. Oxidation to lower free energy releases electrons (oil) Electrons are transferred to a carrier that passes them onto a final electron acceptor. Found in nearly all organisms (aerobic and anaerobic) Does not consume oxygen, but does oxidize intermediates. 2 net atp (4 gross, remember splitting) 2 pyruvate (about 580 kcal/mol of energy left) What happens to pyruvate depends on oxygen. Oxidizes substrates (oil), removes electrons, transfers them to an electron carrier nadh (and fadh2) C6h12o6 + 6o2 = 6co2 + 6h2o + energy (heat and atp) Continuation of krebs would further limit nad+

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.
