The Citric Acid Cycle Acetyl Coenzyme A??-? A small molecule that carries acetyl functional groups in cells. Composed of an acetyl group attached to a coenzyme A molecule. The starting product of the citric acid cycle. Acontinase??-? The citric acid cycle enzyme responsible for catalyzing the reaction that converts citric acid to isocitrate with the release of water. Adenisine Triphosphate (ATP)??-? The molecule from which cells derive energy. Comprised of an adenisine molecule bonded to three phosphates, each phosphate bond contains energy, especially the third bond. By breaking that one bond and reducing ATP to adenisine?diphosphate (ADP), the cell can get the energy to carry out its various processes.

Introduction Carbohydrates, proteins, lipids and nucleic acids are four abundant molecules crucial to all living organisms. Each of these molecules are characterized differently and can be easily distinguished through testing with chemicals. Three of them (carbohydrates, proteins and nucleic acids) are macromolecules, molecules that consist of many atoms. However, they do share the possession of the six elements essential to life which are sulfur, phosphorus , oxygen, nitrogen, carbon and hydrogen. The objective is to test molecules like carbohydrates, lipids and proteins to determine how they react with chemicals.

Virtual Lab Journal Response Sheet Date: 11th Feb 2015 Name of Virtual Lab: Energy in a cell Please include the questions. This can be done by highlighting, copying and pasting into the corresponding space What is the importance of the light and dark reactions in photosynthesis? Light Dependent Reaction is the initial stage of Photosynthesis where solar energy is converted into potential energy, the light Dependent Reaction produces oxygen gas and converts ADP and NADP+ into ATP and NADPH .Dark Reaction takes place in Stroma of the chloroplasts in photosynthetic plants, Energy from light are stored has ATP and NADPH .in Calvin cycle this stored energy is used to make sugar molecule, the Calvin cycle is a complex theory of chemical reactions carried out in stroma.

Gavin Morgan 11/19/2015 Chapter 7 2-Point Notes Cells oxidize organic compounds to drive metabolism: 1. First, enzymes break down the large molecules into smaller ones, a process called digestion. Then, other enzymes dismantle these fragments a bit at a time, harvesting energy from C?H and other chemical bonds at each stage. 2. Electrons lost are accompanied by protons, so that what is really lost is a hydrogen atom, not just an electron. Cellular respiration is the complete oxidation of glucose: 1. When the acceptor is oxygen, the process is called aerobic respiration.

Gavin Morgan 10/28/2015 Chapter 6 2-Point Notes Energy can take many forms: 1. Energy is defined as the capacity to do work. 2. Energy can take many forms: mechanical energy, heat, sound, electric current, light, or radioactivity. The sun provides energy for living organisms: 1. Energy flows into the biological world from the Sun. 2. Breaking the bonds between atoms requires energy. Oxidation-reduction reactions transfer electrons while bonds are made or broken: 1. During a chemical reaction, the energy stored in chemical bonds may be used to make new bonds.

Gavin Morgan 9/11/2015 Chapter 3 2-Point Notes Carbon: The Framework of Biological Molecules Functional groups account for differences in molecular properties: 1. Carbon and hydrogen atoms have similar electronegativities, therefore, their electrons are evenly distributed. 2. Other molecules are polar, which causes other molecules to attach. Isomers have the same molecular formulas but different structures: 1. Isomers have the same molecular formula but exist in different forms. 2. Enantiomers are isomers that are mirror images of each other. Biological macromolecules include carbohydrates, nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids:

The large molecules of all living things fall into just four main classes. Name them. 2. Circle the three classes that are called macromolecules. Define macromolecule. 3. What is a polymer? a monomer? 4. Monomers are connected in what type of reaction? What occurs in this reaction? 5. Large molecules (polymers) are converted to monomers in what type of reaction?
