There are 2 types of metabolic reactions: Anabolism: Small molecules are built into larger ones; requires energy Catabolism: Larger molecules are broken down into smaller ones; releases energy Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw Hill LLC. 2 Anabolism and Catabolism Anabolism: Provides materials for maintenance, cellular growth and repair; requires A T P made during catabolism; example: Dehydration synthesis: Smaller molecules are bound together to form larger ones H2O produced in the process Used to produce polysaccharides, proteins, triglycerides Catabolism: Breaks down larger molecules into smaller ones; A T P is produced; Example: Hydrolysis: Used to decompose carbohydrates, proteins, lipids Uses H2O to split the substances Reverse of dehydration synthesis Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC.

Final products of cellular respiration: Carbon dioxide Water ATP (chemical energy, 40%) Heat (60%) Includes 2 types of reactions: Anaerobic reactions: do not require O2, and make little ATP Lactic acid production Aerobic reactions: require O2, and make most of A TP Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC.

All rights reserved. No reproduction or distribution without the prior written consent of McGraw Hill LLC. 25 Nature of Mutations 2 Some mutations are not harmful, and do not affect health. Many mutations affect health, by changing the amino acid sequence, resulting in a nonfunctional or missing protein. Example: Sickle cell disease is caused by a single nucleotide substitution; this causes production of abnormal hemoglobin, which causes change in shape of red blood cells, in low-oxygen conditions, and extreme pain Rarely, a mutation provides an advantage to health. Example: A mutation protects some people against HIV; the receptor to which the virus binds is incomplete Copyright 2022 © McGraw Hill LLC. All rights reserved.
