Chapter 6 Metabolism

2. substance that forms as result of reaction
4. of activation energy that must be added in order for molecules to react with oneanother
6. reactions reactions that occur simultaneously
7. Meausure of disorder or randomness in a system
8. energy Energy associated with motion
13. metabolic process that breaks down large molecules into smaller ones, catabolic metabolism
14. Sum of chemical reactions that occur in the cell
17. RNA molecule that functions as an enzyme that can catalyze a chemical reaction
19. chemical reaction in which smaller molecules form into bigger ones
21. reactions Chemical reactions that require an imput of energy
22. sites region of an enzyme where the substrate binds and where a chemical reaction occurs
24. organic nutrients that is required in small amount ts for metabolic reactions

1. a paired set of chemical reactions in which one molecule gives up electrons, while another molecule accepts electrons
3. Nucleotide with 2 phosphate groups that become ATP
5. organic catalyst, protein that spends up reactions in cells
7. reaction chemical reaction that releases eneregy
9. energy energy in a system that is capable of doing work
10. nucleotide with 3 phosphate groups, breakdown of ATP
11. of therodynamics Two laws explaining energy and its relation and exchange
12. energy Stored energy in a potentially usable form, as a result of location or spatial arrangement
13. nonprotein assistant required by an enzyme in order to function
15. nonprotein enzyme organic molecule that aids that action of the enzyme which is loosely bound
16. fit model Change in the shape of enzymes active shape that enhances that active site and its substrates
17. Subtance that participates in reaction
18. inhabition Means by which cells regulate enzyme activity, may be competitive or non competitive inhabition
20. pathways Series of linked reactions, beginning with a particular reactant and terminating with end product
23. Capacity to do work and bring about change
