How is photosynthesis important to catabolism?
It is the synthesis of complex organic compounds from simple inorganic substances that can later be used for catabolism in cellular respiration.
What is made during the light-dependent reactions?
-ATP
-O2
-NADPH
How are oxidative phosphorylation and photophosphorylation similar?
Both use the electron transport chain
Summarize how oxidation enables organisms to get energy from glucose, sulfur, or sunlight.
H (e- donor) serves as initial E source. (glucose, sulfur, and sunlight are donors.)
e- are removed and transferred to e- carriers (NAD+, NADP+, and FAD)
ATP produced
Almost all medically important microbes belong to which of the four aforementioned groups?
chemoheterotrophs-(use E from H atoms in organic compounds for E.)
Where do amino acids required for protein synthesis come from?
Enzymes synthesize all them from intermediates of carbohydrate metabolism; others require that the environment provide them.
-Add amine to organic acid of Krebs cycle
Summarize the integration of metabolic pathways using peptidoglycan synthesis as an example.
Amphibolic pathways: Metabolic pathways that have both catabolic and anabolic functions
