Document Summary

Chemotrphs: derive energy directly from organic molecules (ex. Heterotroph: obtain carbon from organic molecules synthesized by other organism (eat other organisms). Metabolism: set of chemical reactions that convert molecules into other molecules and transfer energy in living organisms. Catabolism: set of reactions that break down molecules into smaller units and produce. Anabolism: set of reactions that build molecules from smaller units and require energy input. Energy is held in chemical bonds like atp, glucose, lipids. Released by change in object"s structure or position. In covalent bonds, electron are far from the two atoms, so they store a lot of pe. Atp reacts with water to lose phosphate group (hpo42-) to form adp and phosphate. Cellular respiration: series of catabolic reactions that convert energy stored in food molecules into atp. Stage one: glycolysis: breakdown of glucose to make pyruvate. Electron carriers generated in steps 1-3 donate their high energy electrons to the etc.
