Document Summary

Metabolism is the process of how cells acquire energy, and transform, store and use it. Autotrophs are self-eating organisms, the use co2 with light to build biomolecules. Anaerobic: do not use o2 as a source. Catabolism is the degradation of biomolecules, that is complex molecules are broken down into much simple compounds. This is a convergent pathway as different sources lead to the same biomolecule. Anabolism is the synthesis of biomolecules, that is the formation of complex molecules from simpler molecules. Catabolism is spontaneous while anabolism requires energy (nonspontaneous) because they don"t have much repulsion. Glucose is degraded into a simpler unit, and all reactions converge to form acetyl-coa. Nad- attached to a phosphate nicotinamide the h is synthesized adenine base is sugar with a bond. Nad has a ring, when reduced added to the ring. The activated carriers in metabolism include nad, nadph, and acetyl coa. The units for this equation would be j/mol.
