-
If NAD+ were to suddenly become unavailable, what would happen to cellular respiration?

-
This energy is needed to break bonds in the reactant molecules, then even more energy is released in an exergonic reaction when a final product molecule forms
activation energy
-
enzymes do not add energy; instead they _____________ by lowering the activation energy necessary
hasten reactions
-
_______ fit into the active sites of an enzyme where it is held to promote breaking chemical bonds
substrates
-
__________ which are not themselves catalysts but are requred for normal catalytic functioning
coenzymes
-
a reaction's end product inhibit the reaction itself by halting it when a certain amount of product has accumulated
feedback inhibition
-
The next two questions are based on the following information: A series of enzymes catalyze the reaction X-->Y-->Z-->A. Product "A" binds to the enzyme that converts X to Y at a position remote from its active site. This binding decreases the activity of the enzyme. In this example, substance "X" is a(n) _______________.
substrate
-
an enzyme that changes shape when an inhibitor or an activator binds to an allosteric site that is separate from its active site
allosteric enzyme
-
which organelle is rubisco found in the cells of photosynthetic eukaryotes?
chloroplasts
-

-
cycle that completes the metabolic break down of glucose molecules begun in glycolysis by oxidizing pyruvate to carbon dioxide (mitochondria of eukaryotes, cytosol of prokaryotes)
Kreb's cycle
-
serving as the starting point for fermentation or cellular respiration, this is the splitting of glucose into pyruvate
glycolysis
-
It is thought that _______ evolved from prokaryotes that inhabited the cells of other larger prokaryotes. This scenario likely originated as an endosymbiosis, in which one organism began living within the body of another.
