Question 4

pts


Define anabolism.



Your Answer:


Building up smaller chemical building blocks.


Anabolism is the process of building up or biosynthesis of
macromolecules from small molecular units into much larger complexes.




Question 5

pts

, In order to convert proteins into amino acids which metabolic process would be active?



Your Answer:


glycolysis


Catabolism would be active as proteins are made up of amino acids.
Therefore the process described (proteins into amino acids) is the

Question 6

pts


Describe the energy transfer process relative to both ATP and ADP.



Your Answer:


ATP has the energy to donate to ADP while ADP is able to recieve energy from ATP.
Therefore ATP-Pi--> ADP, ADP+Pi--> ATP


ATP has the energy (phosphate group) to donate while ADP can accept
energy in the form of a phosphate group. Thus, ATP can be
dephosphorylated (ATP



⟶



ADP + Pi), while ADP can be phosphorylated into ATP (ADP + Pi
