Document Summary

Understand the difference between anabolic and catabolic pathways. Understand the first 2 laws of thermodynamics and how they relate to energy exchange: energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be transferred and transformed: with every transfer of energy, some energy escapes as heat. Know the free energy equation, and be able to calculate g. G= h- t s g= (change in free energy) ; h (enthalpy; total change) which is t (temperature) s (change in entropy) note ** Know the characteristics of endergonic and exergonic reactions. Endergonic: non- spontaneous, energetically-uphill, products have more energy than the reactants, positive g. Exergonic: spontaneous, energetically downhill, reactants have more energy than the products, negative g. Understand how atp hydrolysis provides energy for endergonic reactions. So it"s used to power reactions that require energy. Do not affect the free energy of the reactants or the products. Understand the different types of enzyme inhibitors and how they work.
