โ—‰ True or False: Enzymes are polysaccharides that catalyze chemical
reactions. Answer: False
Enzymes are PROTEINS that catalyze chemical reactions
โ—‰ What is a cofactor? And give a general example. Answer: A
cofactor is a small chemical component that assists an enzyme
during the catalysis reactions. A cofactor is usually metal ions.
โ—‰ Define anabolism. Answer: Anabolism is the process of building
up smaller molecular units into larger complexes
โ—‰ In order to convert proteins into amino acids which metabolic
process would be active? Answer: Catabolism would be active
because proteins are made up of amino acids. Therefore the process
would be the breakdown (or catabolism) of proteins into amino
acids.

โ—‰ Describe the energy transfer process relative to both ATP and ADP. Answer: ATP has the energy (phosphate group) to DONATE, while ADP can ACCEPT energy from the form of a phosphate group. Therefore, ATP can be reduced while ADP can be built up. โ—‰ From what source do chemotrophs acquire energy? Answer: From preformed chemicals found in the environment โ—‰ An organism that derives its energy by removing electrons from elemental sulfur would be classified as a __________? Answer: Litotroph โ—‰ This phosphorylation process occurs in the mitochondria of chemotropic eukaryotes. Answer: oxidative phosphorylation โ—‰ The catabolism of a single molecule of glucose goes through what 3 distinct transitions? Answer: 1. Glycolysis

  1. Fermentation or Respiration
  2. Electron transport chain โ—‰ What is the most energetic transition in the catabolism of glucose? Answer: the electron transport chain โ—‰ Identify the reactants of the following chemical equation:

The high volume production of reduced electron carriers from the TCA cycle is used by the ETC to drive ATP production. โ—‰ In the absence of glucose, which of the following CANNOT be used as alternative energy sources? Select all that apply.

  • Carbohydrates
  • Nucleic acids
  • Lactose
  • Fatty acid chains Answer: - nucleic acids โ—‰ For the catabolism of proteins and lipids, which of the following enzymes are used? Select all that apply.
  • Ligases
  • Transferases
  • Proteases
  • Lipases Answer: - Protease
  • Lipases proteases breakdown proteins while lipeases breakdown lipids

โ—‰ True or False. The ฮฒ-oxidation pathway is responsible for the anabolism of fatty acid chains. Answer: False ฮฒ-oxidation pathway is responsible for the catabolism of fatty acid chains โ—‰ Describe the relationship between chloroplasts and chlorophyll. Answer: Both chloroplasts and chlorophyll are involved in photosynthesis. Chloroplasts are double membrane enclosed organelles that contain the pigment chlorophyll โ—‰ True or False. Plants, algae and bacteria all contain chloroplasts. Answer: FALSE Chloroplasts are specific to algae and plants only. โ—‰ The process of photophosphorylation produces which of the following: select all that apply. NADPH ATP H CO

โ—‰ Match the following reactions to its corresponding enzyme:

  1. A + B--> A-B
  2. A-B--> A + B
  3. A- +B--> A +B-
  4. Ab + C--> A + Cb
  • Lyases
  • Transferases
  • Oxidoreductases
  • Hydrolases
  • Ligases
  • Isomerases Answer: 1. Ligases
  1. Lyases
  2. Oxidoreductases
  3. Transferases

Not used: Isomerases Hydrolases โ—‰ What are metal ions usually known to assists enzyme during the catalysis reaction? Answer: Cofactors are usually metal ions and assist enzyme during the catalysis reaction. โ—‰ Upon cellular injury, which metabolic process is involved during the growth and repair phases of the cell? Answer: the anabolic process would be active as it is involved in the building of small complexes into larger complexes โ—‰ An organism that derives its energy (generates ATP) from photons of light is called a _________? Answer: phototrophic microorganism โ—‰ A reactive intermediate would be present in which phosphorylation process? Answer: Substrate-level phosphorylation The chemical compound losing the phosphate group is referred to as the phosphorylated reactive intermediate.
