Objectives Chapter 3 Bioenergetics Discuss the function of cell membrane, nucleus, & mitochondria Define: endergonic, exergonic, coupled reactions & bioenergetics Describe how enzymes work Discuss nutrients used for energy Identify high-energy phosphates Objectives Discuss anaerobic & aerobic production of ATP Describe how metabolic pathways are regulated Discuss the interaction of anaerobic & aerobic ATP production during exercise Identify the rate limiting enzymes Energy Forms Energy originates in the sun – Chemical – Light – Mechanical – Electrical – Heat – Nuclear Introduction Metabolism: total of all chemical reactions that occur in the body – Anabolic reactions - Synthesis of molecules – Catabolic reactions - Breakdown of molecules Bioenergetics – Converting foodstuffs (fats, proteins, carbohydrates) into energy Substrate – Substance used by body in metabolism Metabolite – Byproduct of metabolism Photosynthesis Energy from the sun – Solar energy from sun converted to chemical energy in plants – Plants use energy + water and carbon dioxide – Byproduct is oxygen – Build food molecules 1 Thermodynamics 1st Law – Conservation of energy-energy cannot be created or destroyed. – They can be interchanged – Our bodies transform energy into a form that we can used. Biological Energy Cycle Food + O2 → CO2 + H2O + energy Chemical Mechanical 60-70% of this energy is heat The rest is used for – Muscle contraction – Cellular operations (respiration) Digestion and absorption Synthesis of new compounds Glandular function Biological Energy Cycle Chemical energy transformation to mechanical energy Food (Chemical energy) is used for muscular contraction (Mechanical energy) Elements Basic chemical substances – – – – Oxygen Carbon Hydrogen Nitrogen Minor elements – Sodium, Iron, Zinc, Potassium, Magnesium, Chloride, Calcium Organic substances – contain carbon Inorganic substances - do not contain carbon Cell Structure Cell membrane – Protective barrier between interior of cell and extracellular fluid – Maintains ion concentrations (unequal) Nucleus Cell Structure Cytoplasm – Fluid portion of cell – Contains organelles (mitochondria) – Glycolysis – enzymes – Mitochondria – Contains genes that regulate protein synthesis 2 Structure of a Typical Cell Cellular Chemical Reactions Endergonic reactions – Require energy to be added – Photosynthesis – solar energy to chemical energy Energy stored Exergonic reactions – Release energy – Breakdown of cellular bonds Fig 3.1 The Breakdown of Glucose: An Exergonic Reaction Fig 3.3 Cellular Chemical Reactions Coupled reactions – Liberation of energy in an exergonic reaction drives an endergonic reaction – Breakdown of glucose-exergonic – Formation of ATP-endergonic Coupled Reactions Fig 3.4 Oxidation-Reduction Reactions Oxidation: removing an electron – Removing a negative charge = + > – (oxygen not required) Reduction: addition of an electron – Adding a negative charge = - > Oxidation and reduction are always coupled reactions 3 Oxidation-Reduction Reactions Oxidation-Reduction Reactions Reducing agent: molecule that donates an electron Oxidizing agent: molecule that accepts an electron In cells often involve the transfer of hydrogen atoms rather than free electrons Transfer of H+ and eMajor transport molecules in bioenergetics – Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide – Niacin (B3) – NAD – oxidized form – NADH – reduced form Enzymes – Hydrogen atom contains one electron – A molecule that loses a hydrogen also loses an electron, and therefore is oxidized Transfer of H+ and eMajor transport molecules in bioenergetics – Flavin adenine dinucleotide – Riboflavin (B2) – FAD – oxidized form – FADH – reduced form Enzymes Lower the Energy of Activation Catalysts that regulate the speed of reactions – Lower the energy of activation Energy required to initiate the reaction – Speed up the rate of the reaction – Increase the rate of product formation Fig 3.6 4 Enzymes Factors that influence enzyme activity – Temperature Optimum temperature – most active Slight increase increases activity of most enzymes Useful for muscular contraction – pH Enzymes Structural characteristics – Large proteins with 3 D shape – Characteristic grooves and ridges Active sites – Interact with specific substrates Optimum pH Altered pH reduces enzyme activity High intensity exercise (LA) - ↓ pH Decreases ability to produce energy (ATP) Extreme acidity is a limiting factor in exercise.
