  • substrate
    A=
  • active site
    B=
  • enzyme
    C=
  • product
    D=
  • catabolic reaction

    larger molecule becomes two smaller ones
  • anabolic reaction

    smaller molecules become a larger one
  • enzyme production factor temperature
    the higher the temperature the higher the production, too high enzyme denaturates
  • enzyme production factor pH
    enzymes have an optimum pH, extreme levels away from that pH causes denaturation
  • enzyme production factor substrate concentration
    the more substrates the higher the production, when enzymes are saturated the rate plateaus
  • photosynthesis reaction type
    anabolic
  • cellular respiration reaction type
    catabolic
  • photosynthesis equation
    carbon dioxide, water, sunlight=glucose, oxygen and water
  • photosynthesis organelle
    chloroplast
  • light dependent phase
    in the thylakoid membranes in the grana, light & water= oxygen, hydrogen and ATP
  • light independent phase
    in the stroma, carbon dioxide, hydrogen & ATP=glucose & water
  • cellular respiration organelle
    mitochondria
  • glycolysis
    in the cytoplasm, glucose= 2 pyruvic acid & 2 ATP + electrons
  • krebs cycle
    in the mitochondria's matrix, 2 pyruvic acid & ADP= carbon dioxide and 2 ATP
  • electron transport chain
    in the mitochondria's cristae, oxygen= 26-28 ATP & water
  • cellular respiration net ATP yield
    30-32 ATP
