Metabolism
All chemical reactions that occur in
All cells found inside the mitochondria.
It builds body tissue
Utilizes energy
A campfire that is always burning, but only a little
Photosynthesis
Processes of turning sunlight energy into sugars
Found in chloroplasts
Makes sugars from CO2 and H2O in plant cells-C,H,O
Solar Panel
Made 3.5 Billion Years Ago from prokaryotic cells
Monomer
Small molecules
Can be anywhere anywhere in the cell
Makes things, provides structure
In All cells
One lego brick in a set
Muscle protein is an example of something made of monomers
Polymer
Large molecules, composed of monomers
Can be anywhere anywhere in the cell
Makes things, provides structure
In All cells
A set of lego bricks
Can be synthetic
Light Dependent Reaction
1st stage, split H20 to make O2
Chlorophyll, in the chloroplasts, anthocyanins and carotenoids
Energy, makes it
Plants, some prokaryotes
Solar Panel during day
Output is O2 gas for us
Light Independent Reactions
2nd stage, makes the sugar
In chloroplasts
Makes sugars which are chemical reactions, uses enzymes
Plants cells and some prokaryotes
Solar panel during the day
Also called the Calvin Cycle
Enzyme
Molecules that speed up chemical reactions
In the cytoplasm, lysosome
Made of proteins
All, prokaryotes and eukaryotes
Coach, enhance athlete performance
They are resilient
ATP
Adenosine Triphosphate –>PO3-4
In Mitochondria
1 Adenosine 3 Phosphates
All, prokaryotes and eukaryotes
Full charged, rechargeable battery
To release energy, break bond PO4
ADP
Adenosine diphosphate PO43
Mitochondria
1 Adenosine 2 Phosphates
All, prokaryotes and eukaryotes
The empty phase of a rechargeable battery
PO3-4 is in between both ADP and ATP
Anaerobic
Process that occur in the absence of oxygen
anabolism= building complex molecules
