BIO 202 EXAM 2: METABOLISM QUESTIONS
WITH CORRECT ANSWERS 2025-2026
Catabolism CORRECT ANSWER hydrolytic reaction that breaks something down
Anabolism CORRECT ANSWER Synthetic reaction that builds something up
Enzyme CORRECT ANSWER
AAlarge 3D protein that is a biological catalyst, speeds up catabolic/anabolic reactions, and are NOT alte
red by the reaction (returns to the original shape after the reaction order to run the same reaction agai
n)
- CAN be secreted from the cell
- NOT considered toxins
True CORRECT ANSWER (True/False) An enzyme's shape determines it's function.
Enzyme CORRECT ANSWER The 6 factors that affect activity:
-pH
-Temperature
-Osmotic Conditions (Tonicity)
-Oxidation/Reduction Potential
-Inhibition of Enzyme Activity (Competitive/Noncompetitive)
-Substrate Concentration
source CORRECT ANSWER
Looking at the flow of electrons in metabolism, electrons begin at an electron . (such as glucose)
carrier CORRECT ANSWER
Looking at the flow of electrons in metabolism, electrons get transported through the use of an electro
n . (such as NAD and FAD)
