| What is Energy | It is the capacity to cause change in a system or to do work. It comes in three forms, potential, kinetic, |
| Potential Energy | Is the category of stored energy that an object has because of location, structure (also chemical energy arranged in molecules) |
| Kinetic Energy | The energy of motion |
| What are the 3 differences between Kinetic and Potential Energy | Potential has it's energy on location and structure while kinetic is motion |
| What are the principles of Conservation of Energy | 1. Energy can't be destroyed 2. Energy can be converted from one form to another |
| In every energy conversion what does some energy get converted into | Heat. Heat is kinetic and caused by the random motion of atoms. Heat decreases useful energy and causes entropy or disorder in the system |
| Describe the general ways in which breakdown of gasoline in an automobile’s engine is similar to the process of cellular respiration | Both start with two molecules and they have to go through chemical reactions to get energy and they both have two byproducts at the end of the process. THEY BREAK COVALENT CHEMICAL BONDS and rearrange the atoms into lower energy molecules. |
| What does ATP consist of | Adenosine and a triphosphate tail (Three phosphate groups) It's a nucleic acid |
| Why is ATP essential to living organisms | Organisms can't break down high energy molecules directly and need ATP to provide energy. All cells need energy to move, grow and build chemicals that keep us alive. ATP gives us direct energy we need |
| What type of things can ATP be used for | 1. Muscle Movement, 2. Movement in and out of cell (Transport), 3. Drive chemical reactions that require energy, and processes that require energy |
| What happens when ATP is broken down into ADP | ATP is a high energy molecule that has three phosphates. Energy is released from the Phosphate bond and it becomes Adenosine with two phosphates. This is ADP and it is a lower energy molecule |
| How can ADP be converted back into ATP? | ADP is a low energy molecule and needs to gain back it's energy. It also needs a phosphate to gain back and revert back to a ATP. |
| Metabolism | Is the sum total of all chemical reactions that occur in an organism. |
| Hows do Metabolism work | Each metabolic reaction requires the assistance of a specific enzyme. The enzyme lowers activation energy making everything more efficient and are able to produce more |
| Enzyme | Are proteins that act as catalysts that increase the rate of chemical reactions by lowering activation energy. ( Input of energy required for reaction to occur) |
| Explain how enzymes are important in regulating metabolism | Almost always enzymes are needed to have metabolic reactions |
| What type of organic molecules are enzymes | They are proteins that act as catalysts |
| What effect does an enzyme have on the rate of a chemical reactions in a cell? | The enzyme lowers the activation energy so it allows for more production and more efficient production. This makes enzymes vital and affects metabolism even in small amounts. An enzyme will catalyze thousand of molecules per second |
| How do enzymes accomplish chemical reactions with less energy | They lower the activation energy of a reaction allowing for a decreased use of energy. The enzyme binds with molecule causing chemical or physical stress allowing for lower activation. |
| Does a particular enzyme affect many different types of chemical reactions, or just one type | Only one enzyme can affect one chemical reaction. They have to work together in order to produce the products it needs. |
| Explain the relationship between an enzyme’s active site and the substrate it works on | The active site is on the enzyme where the substrate (molecule) will attach to the enzyme and break down. The active site is where the bind and breakdown happen. An active site must fit the substrate |
| Is the enzyme used up in the chemical reaction it is involved in, or can it be reused | The enzyme is not destroyed after the catalysis (separation of molecule) so the substrate is reused for the same chemical reaction and a new same molecule |
| What sorts of things can inactivate an enzyme | Enzyme inhibitors make enzymes inactive. It includes substrate imposters or substrates that don't fit. Also an inhibitor that attachs to enzyme so that they enzyme shape changes and can't function. |
| Diffusion involves a net movement of molecules from where to where | Molecules from an area where they are in high concentration to an area where they are in lower concentration |
| Diffusion | Is the random movement of molecules so that they spread out evenly into the available space. |
| Why does diffusion occur | The random movement of molecules from heat energy, Molecules tend to spread into the available space until equally distributed. |
| Explain how facilitated diffusion is different from simple diffusion across a membrane | Facilitated Diffusion, which requires specific transport proteins that act as selective corridors through which diffusion can occur. Like ordinary diffusion, no energy is required. This has to go through a membrane while Reg. Diffsion doesent |
| Does Reg. Diffusion or Facilitaited diffusion either of these processes require an input of ATP energy from a cell | No. Like ordinary diffusion, no energy is required |
| Osmosis | is the diffusion of water across a membrane. |
| which way water will move across a membrane by osmosis | is the diffusion of water from a higher water concentration (less dissolved particles) to a lower water concentration (more dissolved particles). water moves across a membrane by osmosis in a direction toward the higher concentration of dissolved particles. |
| predict which way water will move across a membrane by osmosis when a cell is placed into a solution of pure water (a hypotonic solution). | Animal cells placed in pure water or other solutions with lower concentrations of dissolved particles (hypotonic solutions) than themselves will swell and burst due to osmosis of water into the cells |
| Osmoregulation | is the control of water balance within a cell or organism. It's hard for animals but the cell wall of plants regulate water a lot better and prevents burst |
| Which way will water move across the membrane if a cell is placed into a concentrated (hypertonic) solution of salt or sugar water? | Water will be moved into the solution out of the cell shriveling them up and draining the cell of water dying |
| Why is it harmful for an animal cell to be surrounded by pure water, but beneficial for a plant cell? | Animal cells don't have a cell wall from the osmosis and the concentration of water. They have to have the same isotonic (particle) water. It's good for plants because they can soak up more water in the cell to survive and creates a pressure on the cell wall making it firm |
| Active transport | Requires that a cell expend energy (by breaking down a molecule of ATP) to move molecules across a membrane. Cells must use active transport to move substances across a membrane from lower to higher concentration |
| What type of protein does Active Transport need | requires a special carrier protein in the membrane |
| What two things are required for Active Transport that are not required for simple diffusion | Active Transport needs energy from a ATP and a special carrier protein |
| Exocytosis | is the secretion of large molecules within membrane-bound transport vesicles. (“exo” means to exit). The vesicle membrane just fuses with the cell’s plasma membrane to expel its contents |
| Endocytosis | Takes material in by means of vesicles that bud inward from the plasma membrane. (“endo” means inside) |

| Autotrophs | (self-feeders) or producers make their own high-energy organic molecules from inorganic nutrients (carbon dioxide and water), using sunlight as energy. |
| Heterotrophs | (other-feeders) are consumers include humans and other animals that cannot make their own high energy organic molecules: must consume them. |
| What types of cells carry out aerobic cellular respiration (animal cells, plant cells or both)? | Both do but plant cells are the only ones who can do photosynthesis. Aerobic Respiration REQUIRES O2 |

| When a molecule of glucose is broken down by cellular respiration, what role do the high energy electrons in the glucose play? | The electrons are passed from a higher energy state to a lower energy state, and potential energy is released in the process. The release of this energy must be done in a step-wise fashion in order for it to be “harnessed” in a useful way and used to generate ATP. |
