Chapter 17 Metabolism & Energetics 17-1: Metabolism Chemical reactions within mitochondria provide cells with energy Supports growth, cell division, etc. Metabolism—all the chemical reactions that occur in the body Relies 4-2 on amino acids, lipids, & simple sugars Catabolism—breakdown molecules Releases energy for use in making ATP Anabolism—formation molecules Forms of organic of new organic new chemical bonds Requires energy formed from catabolic reactions 4-3 Reasons for making new compounds: Performing body repairs Support growth Produce secretions Build nutrient reserves (store nutrients) 4-4 17-1 Checkpoint 1. Define metabolism. 2. Compare catabolism and anabolism. 3. Explain why cells need to make new compounds. 4-5 17-2: Carbohydrate Metabolism Most ATP is generated by breaking down carbohydrates, inside mitochondria Anaerobic reactions don’t require oxygen; aerobic reactions require oxygen Cellular respiration—responsible for ATP production Glycolysis, chain citric acid cycle, electron transport Glycolysis Glycolysis—breakdown of 6-carbon glucose to two 3-carbon pyruvate molecules Occurs Uses in the cell cytosol 2 ATP to start process; produces 4 ATP (net gain of 2) 4-7 Glycolysis steps: Glucose enters cell 2 ATP break down to 2 ADP, release 2 P Glucose molecule split to two 3-carbon chains Final products: 2 pyruvate 2 ATP 4-8 4-9 The Citric Acid Cycle Citric acid cycle—pyruvate combines with a substrate to form ATP Occurs in the outer mitochondria combines with coenzyme A (CoA) to form 2-carbon acetyl-CoA Pyruvate 4 - 10 Citric acid cycle steps: Acetyl-CoA combines with 4-carbon oxaloacetic acid to form 6-carbon citric acid Rearrangement of molecules produces 2 CO2 & ATP Cycle turns twice (once per pyruvate molecule) Final product: 2 ATP 4 - 12 The Electron Transport System Electron transport system (ETS)—series of proteins that generates 95% of ATP Occurs in the inner mitochondria Electrons Requires Final passed through ETS generate ATP oxygen product: 32 ATP 4 - 13 Energy Yields of Glycolysis & Cellular Respiration From one molecule of glucose: Glycolysis: 2 ATP, 2 pyruvate Citric acid cycle: 2 ATP Electron transport chain: 32 ATP 36 ATP total made from 1 glucose molecule 4 - 14 4 - 15 17-2 Checkpoint 1. What molecule is needed for glycolysis, and what is formed upon completion of glycolysis? 2. What is the primary role of the citric acid cycle in the production of ATP? 4 - 16 17-3: Lipid Metabolism Lipolysis—breaking down lipids 1 lipid molecule can provide 144 ATP Glucose metabolized quicker than lipids Lipogenesis—formation Lipids of lipids circulate in bloodstream as lipoproteins (lipid-protein complexes) 4 - 17 Cholesterol Cholesterol hormones composes cell membranes, Low-density lipoproteins (LDLs)— deliver cholesterol to peripheral tissues “Bad cholesterol” High-density lipoproteins (HDLs)— transport excess cholesterol from tissues “Good cholesterol” High cholesterol linked to atherosclerosis, heart disease Genetics, levels Below lifestyle choices affect cholesterol 200 = OK 200 – 239 = modify diet Above 240 = lifestyle changes 17-3 Checkpoint 1. Define lipolysis. 2. Why are high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) considered beneficial? 3. What are some benefits with cholesterol? What are some problems with cholesterol? 4 - 20 17-4: Protein Metabolism Proteins More Amino broken down into amino acids difficult to break down than carbs/lipids acids combine to form proteins Phenylketonuria (PKU)—disorder in which phenylalanine can’t be converted to another amino acid Can damage CNS & brain Tests performed after birth 17-4 Checkpoint 1. How are proteins formed? 2. Why is phenylketonuria (PKU) a dangerous disorder if undetected? 4 - 22 17-6: Nutrition Nutrition—absorption from food of essential nutrients Balanced diet—contains all the nutrients needed to maintain homeostasis Prevents malnutrition—inadequate or excessive intake of nutrients 4 - 23 Food Groups Food pyramid updated to “MyPlate” Color-coded food groups indicate proportions of food needed from five basic food groups Grains, 4 - 24 vegetables, fruits, protein, dairy 4 - 25 Nutrients must be obtained in sufficient quantity & quality Complete proteins—contain essential amino acids (beef, fish, poultry, eggs, milk) Incomplete proteins—missing essential amino acids (plants) 4 - 26 Minerals & Vitamins Minerals—ions processes important for body Vitamins—organic nutrients Fat-soluble—dissolve in lipids (A, D, E, K) Water-soluble vitamins—easily move throughout body (B, C) 4 - 27 17-6 Checkpoint 1. Identify the two types of vitamins. 2. What is the difference between foods described as containing complete proteins and those described as containing incomplete proteins? 4 - 28 17-7: Metabolic Rate Energy Content of Food Calorimeter—device used to measure Calorie content of food Lipids = 9.46 Calories/g Carbohydrates = 4.18 Calories/g Proteins = 4.32 Calories/g 4 - 29 Metabolic Rate Metabolic rate—sum of all processes occurring in body Increases with exercise/activity Basal metabolic rate (BMR)—represents the minimum energy needed by an awake, resting person Influenced 4 - 30 by age, gender, fitness, genetics Thermoregulation Thermoregulation—processes body temp within normal ranges Mechanisms that keep of heat transfer: Radiation—heat lost as infrared radiation Conduction—heat lost through contact Convection—heat lost as warm air rises Evaporation—sweat on skin evaporates & cools body 4 - 31 4 - 32 Heat-loss centers & heat-gain centers in brain adjust body temp Promoting Blood vessels dilate, sweat glands stimulated Promoting Blood heat loss: heat gain: vessels constricted, sweat glands inhibited, shivering begins 4 - 33 17-7 Checkpoint 1. Compare a pregnant woman’s BMR to her BMR when she is not pregnant. 2. What effect would vasoconstriction of blood vessels have on a hot day? 3. Why does shivering promote heat gain in the body? 4 - 34
