Study Notes
Definitions and Concepts
- Aerobic refers to processes or reactions that occur in the presence of oxygen.
- Anaerobic indicates processes or reactions that occur without oxygen.
- ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) is produced by mitochondria and serves as a primary energy carrier in cells.
- Tetrahedral describes the bonding arrangement of carbon atoms, resulting in a three-dimensional shape.
- Cellulose is classified as a macromolecule, which plays a vital role in plant structure.
- Chromatin is a supramolecular complex composed of DNA and protein, organizing genetic material in eukaryotic cells.
- Closed systems can exchange energy but not matter with their surroundings.
- Catabolism denotes degradative reactions that yield free energy through the breakdown of complex molecules.
Reactions and Energy
- Nucleotides are the monomeric subunits that make up DNA, essential for genetic information storage.
- Endergonic reactions absorb energy from their surroundings, often requiring energy input to proceed.
- Exergonic reactions release energy, making it available for other processes.
- Facultative anaerobes thrive in both oxygen-rich and oxygen-limited environments, adapting to available resources.
- Interactions between biomolecules are described as stereospecific, highlighting the importance of three-dimensional arrangements.
Systems and Thermodynamics
- Isolated systems do not exchange energy or matter with their environment.
- Macromolecules are primarily joined by noncovalent interactions, affecting their structure and function.
- Mitochondria convert fuels into ATP through oxidation processes, essential for cellular energy supply.
- Obligate anaerobes are organisms that cannot survive in the presence of oxygen.
- Open systems can exchange both energy and matter, allowing interactions with their environment.
- Phototrophs derive energy from sunlight, utilizing photosynthesis to convert light energy into chemical energy.
Chemical Reaction Types
- Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in drug metabolism and lipid synthesis, playing a role in detoxification and membrane production.
- Anabolism signifies synthetic reactions that require an input of energy, building complex molecules from simpler ones.
- Endothermic reactions absorb heat, while exothermic reactions release heat during chemical processes.
Laws of Thermodynamics
- The first law of thermodynamics states energy may change forms, but the total amount remains constant in the universe.
- The second law of thermodynamics asserts that total entropy, a measure of disorder, is continually increasing in the universe.
Thermodynamic Properties
- Enthalpy is negative for processes that release heat and positive for those that absorb heat.
- Entropy is negative for reactions that decrease randomness and positive for those that increase randomness.
- Stereoisomers are molecules that have the same chemical formula and bonding structure but differ in the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms.
