1

Metabolism

All the chemical reactions occuring in an organism

New cards
2

Metabolic Pathway

starts with specific molecule and ends with product

New cards
3

Catabolic Pathway

break down complex molecules to simple compounds

New cards
4

Exergonic

release energy

New cards
5

Anabolic Pathway

build complex molecules from simple ones

New cards
6

Endergonic

needs energy input

New cards
7

Breaking molecules =

less organization and lower energy state

New cards
8

Building molecules =

more organization and higher energy state

New cards
9

Kinetic Energy
