Chemical Energy and Life

With out the ability to produce and use and use energy, living things would cease to exsist. Living cells need supplies of energy fo thousands of activities at the same time.

AB
ATPenergy storage compound in cells
AMPsubstance that attaches to a phosphate
ADPmade when AMP and a phosphate are attached
glycolysis" sugar breaking "
two molocules of ATPused to convert the glucose molocule into a high-energy 6- carbon with 2-phosphates
PGAL" unstable" produce pyruvic acid
pyruvic acidmade by the PGALs
NAD+electron carrier
NADHelectron and hydrogen carrier
fermantationthe regeneration of NAD+ to keep glycolysis running
Lactic acid Fermantationmuscles go through this state when there is not enough oxygen to meet their needs
Alcoholic FermentationIn the absence of oxygen, pyruvic acid is broken down to produce alcohol and carbon dioxide instead of Lactic acid
resperationrelease of energy from the breakdown of food molocules in the presence of oxygen
kerbs cycleseries of reactions that occure when chemical bonds of pyruvic acid are broken apart
photosynthesisreserve of resporation
