Activation Energy
amount of energy needed to start a reaction
Amino Acid
Bounded by peptide bonds; monomer of a protein
Carbohydrate
(monosaccharides) main source of energy for the cell; 1 gram = 4 calories
Catalyst
used in enzymes to lower the activation energy and speed up the reaction

Enzyme
Protein and Catalyst; have an active site and a substrate
Lipid
(1 glycerol = 3 fatty acids) used for long term energy storage, make up the
phospholipid bilayer; 1 gram = 9 calories
Monosaccharide
simple sugars, monomer for carbs (glucose and sucrose)

Nucleic Acids
Made of nucleotides, function is to store genetic information which can be
seen in DNA and RNA
Organic Molecule
bounded molecules made of carbon
Active Transport
Requires energy (ATP) for large molecules. Gets molecules across the cell
through pumps and vesicles (endocytosis and exocytosis)
Pumps
Molecules are "pumped" by a transport protein to get across the
membrane, requiring energy

Vesicles
Used when molecules are too large to pass through the membrane, even
with the help of a transport protein
Endocytosis
Large molecules going INTO the cell
Exocytosis
Large molecules going OUT of the cell
Concentration Gradient
Drives diffusion; moves from left to right
