Owens Micro Exam II
Question | Answer |
---|---|
apoenzyme + coenzyme = | Haloenzyme |
anabolism | protein synthesis in ribosome |
Name the four characteristics of an enzyme. | globular protein increases the rate of a reaction is not used up is very specific in activity |
catabolism | breakdown of large molecule release energy |
In this metabolic pathway which enzyme is catalyzed in the second reaction a ------>b----->c---->d------>e | b |
apoenzyme +cofactor =haloenzyme is an example of what type of model? | lock and key model |
what is metabolism? | all chemical reactions that take place with a cell |
what is enzyme regulation? | regulation by chemical inhibitors |
define gene induction | excess substrate(inducer) turns the gene on results in an increase in enzyme synthesis |
define gene repression | excess product (repressor) turns the gene offresults in a decrease in enzyme synthesis |
ATP is produced through the catabolism of nutrients | true |
ATP is not used in anabolic processes | False |
Glycolysis occures in the cytoplasm of all cells | True |
Glycolysis occures in the cytoplasm of all cells | False |
Glycolysis is an aerobic process | False |
Glycolysis is converted to pyruvic acitate | False |
Glycolysis produces 2 pyruvicacid +2 ATP + 2 NADH | True |
pyruvic acid is not the end product of glycolysis | False |
The central metabolite that leads to several metabolic pathways including fermentation and respiration is | pyruvic acid |
fermentation is what type of process ? | anaerobic process |
During fermentation pyruvic acid is converted into what? give an example | lactic acid, Acetic acid, Propionic acid, Butanediol, Formic acid, Succinic acid, Ethanol + CO2, CO2 + H2O |
What is the energy yeild of fermentation? | 2 ATP |
Pyruvic acid can be metabolized into many different ways, name two | Acetic acid, Propionic acid, CO2+ H2O, Butanediol, Formic acid, Succinic acid, Lactic acid, Ethanol +CO2 |
Lactobacillus produces Acetic acid. | False |
Escherichea is a Heterolactic organism. | True |
Organisms that produce Lactic acid are called. | Homolactic |
Bacillus is a Homolactic or a Heterolactic organism? | Homolactic |
Streptococcus is fermentor of what type of acid? | Lactic acid |
Respiration is a __________ process. | aerobic |
Acetyl-CoA synthesis, Krebs cycle and Electron Transport are all involved in _____________. | Respiration |
Pyruvic acid is converted to CO2 and H2O during ____________. | Respiration |
Transition reaction is another name for ____________. | Acetyl-CoA synthesis |
Transition reaction occurs in the_____________ of Eukaryoric cells and the cytoplasm of Prokaryotic cells. | Mitochondria |
Pyruvic acid is converted into acetyl sugar which binds with Coenzyme A during _______________ synthesis. | Acetyl-CoA |
Acetyl-CoA does not feed into the Krebs cycle | False |
