5774808401MetabolismThe sum of all chemical reactions in the body0
5774810460AnabolicBuilds molecules, putting things together1
5774815137CatabolicBreaking apart molecules, breaking things2
5774825197If change in enthalpy (H) increases...G increases3
5774827923If change in entropy (S) or temperature (T) increases...G decreases4
5774836847If change in G is less than 0...- spontaneous - exergonic - catabolic - respiration5
5774839880If change in G is greater than 0...- nonspontaneous - endergonic - anabolic - photosynthesis6
5774846360ReductionGaining an electron7
5774851925OxidationLosing an electron8
5774855460Reducing agentGives away an electron9
5774858967Oxidizing agentAccepts an electron10
5774907453PhosphofructokinaseAn11
5774963555ATPEnergy12
5774963556NADHElectron carrier (transports energy, but can't be used as much as ATP)13
5774974842End products of glycolysis- 2 net ATP - 2 NADH - 2 Pyruvate14
5774995745End products of citric acid2 (3 NADH) 2 (1 FADH2) 2 (1 ATP) all multiplied by 2 because there are 2 pyruvate molecules15
5775170970UbiquinoneOnly electron carrier that is not a protein. It is a coenzyme, which means it bonds to an active site16
5775018474Mitochondria17
5775095743Chloroplast18
5775075791AutotrophOrganisms that use the sun's energy to build energy storing sugars19
5775078331HeterotrophOrganisms that eat the energy stored by plants20
5775086606VioletShorter waves, higher energy (400)21
5775087734RedLonger waves, lower energy (700)22
5775095744StomataOpenings on the bottom of the leaf that CO2 enters through23
5775110948Chlorophyll AMore common, darker hue24
5775111856Chlorophyll BLess common, lighter hue25
5775123335Chlorophyll graphSpike = absorption26
5775138584Light dependent photosynthesis phaseOccurs in thylakoid27
5775148471Photosystem IIp680 = absorbs that length the most28
5775150297Photosystem Ip700 = absorbs that length the most29
5775422821Lactic acid vs AlcoholAlcohol releases CO2 and has an extra step where acetaldehyde turns into ethanol30
