Document Summary
Catabolic reaction- a pathway that releases energy by breaking down macromolecules into simpler molecules (atp synthesis) Anabolic reaction- a pathway that uses energy to build macromolecules from simpler molecules (atp breakdown) Catabolism provides the energy needed for anabolism. Both of these reactions are used for metabolism; they maintain the life of a cell. Oxidation- the removal of electrons or hydrogen ions (h+) Reduction- the gain of electrons or (h+) The pairing of these reactions are called redox reactions and are used by cells in catabolism to generate atp from nutrient molecules. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (nad+)- a coenzyme that functions as an electron carrier; usually reduced to nadh. Contain derivatives of the b vitamin niacin. Flavin adenine dinucleotide (fad)- a coenzyme that functions as an electron carrier; usually reduced to fadh2. Contains derivatives of the b vitamin riboflavin. Atp is made from adp by three mechanisms of phosphorylation.
