Term
| How does leptin regulate the appetite? |
|
Definition
| It is secreted by adipocytes in proportion to how much adipose we have. Animals that lack leptin will overeat because their brain thinks they don't have enough fat stores |
|

Term
|
Definition
| total of all chemical reactions in body. consists of anabolism and catabolism |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| energy requiring process in which larger molecules are made from simpler, smaller molecules |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| energy releasing process that involves breakdown of larger molecules into smaller molecules |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Molecule that:
1. is not changed or destroyed in reaction
2. lowers energy needed to break bonds of reactants
3. speeds up the rate of reaction |

Definition
|
|
Term
| What are the products of glycolysis? |
|
Definition
| 2 ATP, 2 NADH, 2 pyruvate (which move onto Acetyl CoA formation) |
|
|
Term
| What happens in Acetyl CoA formation? |
|
Definition
| 2 pyruvic acids move into mitochondria where they are converted to: 2 Acetyl-CoA, 2 NADH, 2 CO2 |
|
|
Term
| What happens in the citric acid cycle? |
|
Definition
2 acetyl CoA's enter this cycle and undergo a series of reactions with acid molecules that results in the formation of:
2ATP
6 NADH
2 FADH2
4 CO2 |
|
|
Term
| What happens in the electron transport chain? |
|
Definition
| electrons are transferred from FADH, NADH to the carriers and when this happens H+ ions are released out of the mitochondrion. In the last step electrons are transferred from the carrier molecule to the oxygen. Phosphates are added to ADP to create ATP. |

Definition
| triacylglycerols broken down into glycerol and free fatty acids |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| occurs when ATP and glucose levels are high |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Free fatty acids undergo this process to become acetyl coA molecules which can enter citric acid cycle |
