Document Summary

Metabloic reactions in the cell: catabolic: breaking down large molecules to small ones, i. e. proteins amino acids, glycogen glucose molecules, anabolic: larger molecules constructed from reactants i. e. amino acids proteins, etc, metabolic pathway: when the products of one reaction serve as the reactants of another i. e. a b c d. Reaction rate factors: concentration, temperature, activation energy heights rate of reaction increases as barrier height decreses, enzymes biomolecules that act as catalysts for chemical reactions, specificity: enzymesa are able to recognize and bind to specific substrates, some can bind to a range of substrates, some are very specific, cofactors:non protein components, allow enzymes to function, coenzymes: no catalytic activity, attatch to enzymes.
