Potential Energy vs. Kinetic Energyas it happens in the environment
Thermodynamics and Material recyclingRed = Energy flowBlue = chemical element flow
The making and using of ATP is a constant recycling process. It needs free energy released from our food to keep going
Free energy from our food molecules is use to produce ATP.ATP is then used to power cellular processes by providing phosphates (known as phosphorylation)
Think About It! • Read the following experiment and think about the missing information.
Becky conducted an experiment to determine if enzyme concentration had an effect on the rate at which Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) is decomposed to water (H2O) and Oxygen gas (O2). The enzyme she used in her experiment is Catalase, found in liver cells. She used a graduated cylinder to pour 50 mL of H2O2 into each of 5 100 mL beakers.She then used another graduated cylinder to add 10 mL of Catalase, of vary concentrations, into each beaker.She stopped the reaction after 1 minute, using Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) to denature the Catalase, and then measured the amount of H2O2 that remained in the beakers.
Which of the following concentrations would correspond to beaker 1? • 0% solution of catalase • 25% solution of catalase • 50% solution of catalase • 100% solution of catalase
Which of the following concentrations would correspond to beaker 5? • 0% solution of catalase • 25% solution of catalase • 50% solution of catalase • 100% solution of catalase
Which of the following concentrations would serve as the control in the experiment? • 0% solution of catalase • 25% solution of catalase • 50% solution of catalase • 100% solution of catalase

Nature versus Enzymes in promoting chemical reactions. Enzymes reduce the Energy of Activation and thus speed up the rate of chemical reactions.
Denaturation of a enzymeWhat bonds do you think broke allowing this to happen?
Inhibitor moleculesThey slow down or stop the chemical reaction rate
Feedback InhibitionSee a product molecule going back and inhibiting the enzymes ability to work?
