Metabolism (The Energy of Life (Forms of Energy (Thermal Energy (Heat…

- - - - As a whole manages the material and energy resources of a cell.
  - - - "The capacity to cause change."
    - - "Energy can be associated with the relative motion of objects this energy."
    - - "Kinetic energy associated with the random movement of atoms or molecules."
      - Heat
        
        "Thermal energy in transfer from one object to another."
    - - "Energy that matter possesses because of its location or structure."
    - - "Potential energy available for release in a chemical reaction."
  - - - "The study of the energy transformation that occur in a collections of matter."
    - - "The energy of the universe is constant."
        
        Also Known As: Principle of conservation of energy.
    - - "Every energy transfer or transformation increases the entropy of the universe."
      - Entropy
        
        "Quantity that acts as a measure of molecular disorder, or randomness."
    - - "Process can proceed without requiring an input of energy."
    - - "The portion of a system's energy that can perform work when temperature and pressure are uniform throughout the system."
- - - - recipient molecule with the phosphate group covalently bonded to it.
    - - "Macromolecule that acts as a catalyst."
        
        Catalyst-(A chemical agent that speeds up a reaction without being consumed by the reaction.)
      - Activation Energy
        
        "Initial investment of energy for starting a reaction-- The energy required to contort the reactant molecules so the bonds can break."
      - Catalysis
        
        "A process by which a catalyst selectively speeds up a reaction without itself being consumed."
      - Substrate
        
        "The reactant an enzyme acts on is referred to as the enzyme's Substrate."
        
        Enzyme-Substrate Complex
        
        "The enzyme binds to its substrates forming..."
        
        Active Site
        
        "Typically a pocket or groove on the surface of the enzyme where catalysis occurs."
        
        Induced Fit
        
        "The tightening of the binding after initial contact."
- - - - "Reduce the productivity of enzymes by blocking substrates from entering active sites."
    - - "Do not directly compete with the substrate to bind to the enzyme at the active site."
