SOME BASIC ENERGY CONCEPTS Energy makes the world go around. But what is energy? © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Conservation of Energy Energy is defined as the capacity to cause change. –Some forms of energy are used to perform work. –Energy is the ability to rearrange a collection of matter. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Conservation of Energy Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. Potential energy is stored energy. It is energy that an object has because of its –location or –structure. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Figure 5.1 Climbing converts kinetic energy to potential energy. Greatest potential energy Diving converts potential energy to kinetic energy. Least potential energy
Machines and organisms can transform kinetic energy to potential energy and vice versa. In all such energy transformations, total energy is conserved. –Energy cannot be created or destroyed. –Energy can be converted from one form to another. –This is the principle of conservation of energy. Conservation of Energy © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Entropy Every energy conversion releases some randomized energy in the form of heat. Heat is a –type of kinetic energy and –product of all energy conversions. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Entropy Scientists use the term entropy as a measure of disorder, or randomness, in a system. All energy conversions increase the entropy of the universe. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Chemical Energy Molecules store varying amounts of potential energy in the arrangement of their atoms. Organic compounds are relatively rich in such chemical energy. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Chemical Energy Chemical energy –arises from the arrangement of atoms and –can be released by a chemical reaction. Living cells and automobile engines use the same basic process to make chemical energy do work. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Figure 5.2 Fuel rich in chemical energy Energy conversion Waste products poor in chemical energy Oxygen Carbon dioxide Energy conversion in a car Energy for cellular work Energy conversion in a cell Heat energy Heat energy Carbon dioxide Oxygen Combustion Cellular respiration Kinetic energy of movement ATP Octane (from gasoline) Glucose (from food) Water
Cellular respiration is –the energy-releasing chemical breakdown of fuel molecules and –the storage of that energy in a form the cell can use to perform work. Chemical Energy © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Humans convert about 34% of the energy in food to useful work, such as the contraction of muscles. About 66% of the energy released by the breakdown of fuel molecules generates body heat. Chemical Energy © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Food Calories A calorie is the amount of energy that can raise the temperature of one gram of water by 1 degree Celsius. Food Calories are kilocalories, equal to 1,000 calories. The energy of calories in food is burned off by many activities. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.

ATP AND CELLULAR WORK Chemical energy is –released by the breakdown of organic molecules during cellular respiration and –used to generate molecules of ATP. ATP –acts like an energy shuttle, –stores energy obtained from food, and –releases it later as needed. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
The Structure of ATP ATP (adenosine triphosphate) –consists of an organic molecule called adenosine plus a tail of three phosphate groups and –is broken down to ADP and a phosphate group, releasing energy. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.

ENZYMES Metabolism is the total of all chemical reactions in an organism. Most metabolic reactions require the assistance of enzymes, proteins that speed up chemical reactions. All living cells contain thousands of different enzymes, each promoting a different chemical reaction. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Activation Energy Activation energy –activates the reactants and –triggers a chemical reaction. Enzymes reduce the amount of activation energy required to break bonds of reactant molecules. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.

The Process of Science: Can Enzymes Be Engineered? Observation: Genetic sequences suggest that many of our genes were formed through a type of molecular evolution. Question: Can laboratory methods mimic this process through artificial selection? Hypothesis: An artificial process could be used to modify the gene that codes for lactase into a new gene coding for an enzyme with a new function. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Experiment: Using the process of directed evolution, many copies of the lactase gene were randomly mutated and tested for new activities. Results: Directed evolution produced a new enzyme with a novel function. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc. The Process of Science: Can Enzymes Be Engineered?

Induced Fit An enzyme is very selective in the reaction it catalyzes. Each enzyme recognizes a substrate, a specific reactant molecule. –The active site fits to the substrate, and the enzyme changes shape slightly. –This interaction is called induced fit because the entry of the substrate induces the enzyme to change shape slightly. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Enzymes can function over and over again, a key characteristic of enzymes. Many enzymes are named for their substrates, but with an –ase ending. Induced Fit © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.

Some products of a reaction may inhibit the enzyme required for its production. –This is called feedback regulation. –It prevents the cell from wasting resources. Many beneficial drugs work by inhibiting enzymes. –Penicillin blocks the active site of an enzyme that bacteria use in making cell walls. –Ibuprofen inhibits an enzyme involved in sending pain signals. –Many cancer drugs inhibit enzymes that promote cell division.

Passive Transport: Diffusion across Membranes Molecules contain heat energy that causes them to vibrate and wander randomly. Diffusion is the movement of molecules so that they spread out evenly into the available space. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Passive transport is the diffusion of a substance across a membrane without the input of energy. Cell membranes are selectively permeable, allowing only certain substances to pass. Substances diffuse down their concentration gradient, a region in which the substance’s density changes. Passive Transport: Diffusion across Membranes © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.

Some substances do not cross membranes spontaneously or cross slowly. –These substances can be transported via facilitated diffusion. –Specific transport proteins act as selective corridors. –No energy input is needed. Passive Transport: Diffusion across Membranes © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Osmosis and Water Balance The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane is osmosis. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.

Exocytosis and Endocytosis: Traffic of Large Molecules Exocytosis is the secretion of large molecules within transport vesicles. © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Figure 5.17 Outside of cell Cytoplasm Plasma membrane Exocytosis
Endocytosis takes material in via vesicles that bud inward from the plasma membrane. Exocytosis and Endocytosis: Traffic of Large Molecules © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
Figure 5.18 Endocytosis
In the process of phagocytosis (“cellular eating”), a cell engulfs a particle and packages it within a food vacuole. Other times a cell “gulps” droplets of fluid into vesicles. Endocytosis can also be triggered by the binding of certain external molecules to specific receptor proteins built into the plasma membrane. Exocytosis and Endocytosis: Traffic of Large Molecules © 2013 Pearson Education, Inc.
The plasma membrane helps convey signals –between cells and –between cells and their environment. Receptors on a cell surface trigger signal transduction pathways that –relay the signal and –convert it to chemical forms that can function within the cell.
