1.  Bioenergetics – our cells’ ability to release the energy in glucose, starch, and fat  We do this by chemical reactions catalyzed by enzymes  Exergonic reactions vs. endergonic reactions  Exergonic – nutrients being oxidized in the mitochondria  Endergonic – plants using CO 2 and water to form sugars  Activation energy – energy barrier that must be broken for exergonic rxns to proceed.

2. (a) Exergonic reaction: energy released, spontaneous (b) Endergonic reaction: energy required, nonspontaneous Reactants Energy Products Progress of the reaction Amount of energy released (  G  0) Reactants Energy Products Amount of energy required (  G  0) Progress of the reaction Free energy

4. How the Hydrolysis of ATP Performs Work The three types of cellular work (mechanical, transport, and chemical) are powered by the hydrolysis of ATP In the cell, the energy from the exergonic reaction of ATP hydrolysis can be used to drive an endergonic reaction Overall, the coupled reactions are exergonic Obeys the laws of thermodynamics, but less messy © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

6.  Lower activation energy  Specificity  Active site binds substrate in lock and key fit – enzyme/substrate complex  Induced fit – when enzyme changes its shape to accommodate substrate  Enzymes are not used up in the reaction  Do not work alone – need co-enzymes like vitamins, NAD, and NADP

Active site can lower E A and speed up a reaction. Active site is available for two new substrate molecules. Products are released. Substrates are converted to products. 1 2 3 4 5 6

10. 1. Temperature  Increasing temp. increasing rxn rate  Too much heat can damage the enzyme – denature  most human enzymes work at 37 degrees Celsius 2. pH 3. Enzyme concentration 4. Substrate concentration

12.  Allosteric regions on an enzyme can be bound by inhibitors or activators  Allosteric sites are subject to feedback inhibition – where the product inhibits the rxn.  Competitive inhibition – when the allosteric inhibitor binds the active site of the enzyme  Non-competitive inhibition – when the inhibitor binds another site on the enzyme leading to a conformational change in the active site
