1 Metabolism Energy of Life

2 Metabolic Pathways Anabolic PathwaysCatabolic Pathways

3 Kinetic Energy

4 Potential Energy

5 First Law of Thermodynamics Energy can be transferred or transformed but it cannot be created or destroyed

6 Second Law of Thermodynamics Every energy transfer or transformation increases the entropy of the Universe

7 Free Energy Gibbs Equation  G =  H – T  S  G – Change in Free energy  H – Change in Total energy T – Absolute temperature in Kelvin  S – Change in Entropy

8 Free Energy and Metabolism

9 Exergonic Reactions Release of energy -G-G Spontaneous Downhill More energy in reactants than in products Ex. Cellular Respiration -686 kcal/mol Ex. ATP  ADP + P -7.3 kcal/mol Endergonic Reactions Absorbs energy +G+G Nonspontaneous Uphill More energy in products than in reactants Ex. Photosynthesis +686 kcal/mol Ex. ADP + P  ATP +7.3 kcal/mol
