Document Summary

Extraction of energy from food starts with the breakdown of macromolecules into simple subunits. Subunits are broken down further and can be completely oxidized to generate atp. Catabolism is breakdown of molecules through use of enzymes to free energy stored in chemical bonds. Enzymes catalyze the reaction in a series of steps that involve the transfer of energy to carrier molecules usually nadh and atp. The enzyme helps move along reactions that are difficult to initiate or control on their own. The activation energy is the energy needed by molecules to initiate chemical reactions. The activation energy is usually less when an enzyme is involved. Three steps: breakdown of large macromolecules into subunits in our digestive system. Releases energy which is stored in carrier molecules atp and nadh. Conversion of atp to adp releases the energy stores in the 3rd phosphate bond. Activated form of carrier molecule that has accepted a hydrogen ion.
