Metabolism

• Anabolism 


  Metabolic pathways that synthesize larger molecules from smaller units. REQUIRES ENERGY.

  EX) Anabolic steroids help make muscle.
• Catabolism


  Metabolic pathways that break down molecules into smaller units. Does not require energy as it produces it.
• Cells constantly 


  Break down ATP and regenerate it.
• Oxidation Reduction Reactions

  ATP Synthesis involves the exchange of ions in the form of hydrogen ions from the energy-yielding compounds.
• NAD 


  Niacin

  Requires vitamin
• FAD


  Riboflavin

  Requires Vitamin
• NAD & FADH2


  Can pick up an electron and take it to the ETC.

  After they pick up an electron the turn into NADH and FADH2.
• A substance is _____ when it gains 1 or more electrons.

  It also loses oxygen and gains an H

  Reduced
• A substance is _____ when it loses one or more electrons/ a hydrogen. It gains oxygen here
