7640473570 | Catabolic | cellular respiration breaking down molecules downhill reaction passive | 1 | |
7640478220 | Catabolic Energy | exergonic - releasing energy spontaneous high potential energy to low no major energy input required | 2 | |
7640500861 | Anabolic | photosynthesis building up molecules uphill reaction active | 3 | |
7640518649 | Anabolic Energy | endergonic - absorbing energy NOT spontaneous low potential energy to high STORED energy inputted | 4 | |
7640537147 | △G = △H - T△S | H = enthalpy/ total energy S = entropy/ disorder T = temp. in kelvin | 5 | |
7640547156 | △G > 0 | uphill/endergonic not spontaneous requires energy | 6 | |
7640549983 | △G < 0 -△G | downhill/exergonic spontaneous | 7 | |
7640556065 | Spontaneous Reactions | decrease molecules free energy losing potential energy into environment more stable closer to equilibrium | 8 | |
7640564659 | Equilibrium Preventing | constant flow of material energy in and out of system | 9 | |
7640564660 | Cell Death | equilibrium | 10 | |
7640569183 | ATP | unstable higher potential energy | 11 | |
7640574273 | ADP | stable less potential energy | 12 | |
7640604238 | ATP to ADP | ATP is hydrolysed from ATP to ADP exergonic catabolic | ![]() | 13 |
7640621425 | ATP synthesis | being built back up from ADP -> ATP uphill requires energy investment | 14 | |
7640643514 | Coupled Reactions | use energy release of exergonic RXN to fuel the energy requirement of endergonic RXN all RXN's are a little of one and a lot of the other | 15 | |
