Question 1
pts
True or False: Metabolism is a controlled set of biochemical reactions that occur in living
organisms in order to maintain life.
Correct!
True
False
Question 2
pts
True or False: Enzymes are polysaccharides that catalyze chemical reactions.
True
Correct!
False
Enzymes are proteins that catalyze chemical reactions.
Question 3
pts
What are the usually metal ions known to assists enzymes during the catalysis reaction?
Your Answer:
the function of enzymes regulates by small chemical components named Cofactors
which without them enzymes may be inactive
, Cofactors are usually metal ions and assist enzymes during the catalysis
reaction.
Question 4
pts
Define catabolism.
Your Answer:
break down of large molecules into useful energy sources
Catabolism is the process of breaking down larger molecules into useful energy
sources.
Question 5
pts
Upon cellular injury, which metabolic process is involved during the growth and repair
phases of the cell?
Your Answer:
Anabolism
The anabolic process would be active as it (by definition) is involved in the
building up of small complexes into larger complexes.
Question 6
pts
Describe the energy transfer process relative to both ATP and ADP.
Your Answer:
ATP ( Adenosin teriphosphate ) donate energy but ADP ( Adenosin diphosphate)
accept energy
ATP has the energy (phosphate group) to donate while ADP can accept energy in
the form of a phosphate group. Thus, ATP can be reduced (ATP ⟶⟶ADP + Pi)
while ADP can be built into ATP (ADP + Pi ⟶⟶ATP).
Question 7
pts
An organism that derives its energy (generates ATP) from photons of light is called a
_________?
