Document Summary

Required to provide energy to the cells for growth, repair, maintenance and reproduction. Process of transformation stored energy (plants) into chemical energy stored as starch. Sum of all chemical reactions in living cells. Coenzymes- enhance or necessary for the action of enzymes (vitamins) Cofactors- mineral that are required for enzyme activity. Every chemical reaction either requires or releases energy. Anabolism is making complex molecules from more basic ones. Catabolism is the breakdown of complex molecules to more basic one. Don"t always occur at same time as anabolic reactions. Exchange phosphate by breaking/forming high energy phosphate. Energy stored in adenosine triphosphate (atp) fuels the work of all bonds body cells system. Contraction, transport of ions, becomes the battery within the. Allows us to move energy from food to transfer to atp. Energy used to pump protons to intermembrane space (form. Water pump (etc) and water wheel (atp synthesis analogy) gradient) Move energy from macronutrient metabolism to coenzymes (funnel)
