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
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.
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:
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.
