1
The harvest and storage of chemical energy
2
ENERGY = the capacity to do work KINETIC ENERGY POTENTIAL ENERGY
E.g., movement, random molecular motion POTENTIAL ENERGY Stored energy, e.g. guillotine, ______ pressure CHEMICAL ENERGY Potential energy stored in _____ bonds H2, hydrogen gas
3
ENERGY TRANSFORMATIONS Change from one energy type to another
Examples: Cars: Gas (chemical E) --> motion (______ E) + heat Organisms: Food molecules (chemical E) --> 1) motion (kinetic E) + heat or 2) storage molecules (______ E) + heat
4
Exergonic reactions release energy
R1 + R2 -> P1 + P2 + E Energy of reactants > energy of products E.g., burning of wood: Chemical E of wood and O2 (reactants) > Chemical E of ASH, CO2 and H2O (products) Net energy released as heat and ______
5
Endergonic reactions consume energy
R1 + R2 + E -> P1 + P2 Energy of reactants < energy of products Require an input of energy Usually from _____, the cellular fuel molecule E.g., _________ of macromolecules
6
Phosphorylation How cells store ________ energy
Endergonic process Requires an input of _______ To ‘phosphorylate’ is to attach a phosphate group -O-P-O- O = - O- Phosphate group _______ bond Hydrocarbon Phosphate group Covalent bond contains potential/stored energy
7
Removal of phosphate group releases ______
Released energy can be used for _____
8
Cells energize ________ compounds to do work
ATP = Adenosine Triphosphate = phosphorylated ADP (adenosine diphosphate) adenosine
9
Examples of phosphorylation processes:
1) The ATP cycle ATP is used to ______ and then release energy An example of “________ reactions” Combine E-releasing with E-consuming reactions
10
____ amount of energy needed to create ______
2) Enzyme-_________(substrate-level) phosphorylation Enzyme transfers P from another molecule ____ amount of energy needed to create ______ Enzyme does not actually ________ energy ATP
11
3) Oxidation-reduction (redox) reactions
Transport electrons from high energy reactants to lower energy products Electrons occupy lower energy (inner) ____ in products Results in release of energy E.g., oxidation of glucose into CO2 and ___: C6H O2 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ENERGY (_____ E) (____ E)
12
Number of atoms does not change Just rearranged
+ ENERGY Number of atoms does not change Just rearranged Rearrangement results in release of ______ Electrons that Hydrogen atoms shared with ________ are moved to ________ (in water) Where they occupy lower energy _____ Molecules that _____ electrons are “oxidized” Glucose gets oxidized to CO2 Molecules that _____ electrons are “reduced” Oxygen gets reduced to ___
