Cards

Term
where does energy come from
Definition

sun

 

sun(energy) +CO2 +H2O= photosynthesis

 

oxygen and glucose comes out

Term
how is metabolism stored?
Definition

-glucose: in bonds, all cells metabolize glucose for energy

 

Term

how is metabolism stored?

 

short-term

Definition
electron carriers= ATP
Term

how is metabolism stored?

 

long term storage

Definition

glycogen

 

fat

Term

cellular energy metabolism

 

how is it metabolized?

 

Definition

-input is glucose(reactant)

1)glycolosis

2)respiration(w/O2) 2)fermentation(no O2)

                             cytoplasm

-output is {energy+O2+H2O}

 

 

Term
glycolosis
Definition
sequence of reactions that can be grouped in two major processes
Term

glycolosis

 

1st major process

Definition
glucose activation- energy goes in
Term

glycolosis

 

2nd major process

Definition
energy harvest- energy goes out
Term

glycolosis

 

net yield

Definition

summary:

1 glucose+ 1 ATP yields 2 pyuruvate+2 NADH

 

Term
cellular respiration
Definition

occurs in mitochondria in eukaryotes

 

pyruvate is transported from cytoplasm to mitochondrial matrix

Term

three stages of respiration

 

Definition

1. pyruvate broken down, release energy and CO2 in the matrix

2. high energy electrons travel through the electron transport chain in the inner membrane

3. chemlosmosis generate ATP

Term

cellular respiration

 

stage 1

Definition

stage 1: pyruvate is broken down, releasing energy and CO2

1a. formation of acetyl CoA in matrix

input of the krebs cycle

-CO2 released

-2 high energy electrons + a hydrogen ion +NADH 2/glucose 

Term

cellular respiration

 

krebs cycle

Definition

1 ATP

3 NADH

1 FADH2
