  • Why ATP needed to move molecules against concentration gradient:
    • ATP binds to carrier protein
    • bone between phosphates is broken to provide evergy to move molecule from low to high concentration
  • Why enzymes needed in human body:
    • Enzymes lower activation every for reaction.
    • lower amount on energy required for reaction
    • without enzymes body reaction would be too slow to survive
  • purpouse of enzymes in catabolic and anabolic reactions:
    • emzymes lower Ea to speed up reaction
    • catabolic reactions require enzymes to breaksown large substrate
    • anabolic reactions need enzymes to 'build up' smalller substrates
  • How is ATP formed:
    • ADP combines with phosphate molecume
    • required energy which is stored between 2nd and 3rd phosphate
  • explain role of lymphatic system in absorbing nutrience. provide examples:
    • lacteal withing vili of SI absorb fats and fat-soluable vitimins which are recombined into fatty acids and gycerol.
    • fats and fat-soluable vitimins are transported in lymphatic system and empty into blood through veins in upper chest
