Energy can
move forms or change from
What one system to another, but it
is the first law of cannot be created or
destroyed. The total amount
thermodynamics? of energy in the universe
remains constant
With every
What transfer or
is the second law transformation of
of energy, the overal
entropy (disorder) of the
thermodynamics? universe increases.
What Entropy is
a measure of disorder or
randomness in the universe.
is entropy The more ordened a system
is, the less entropy it has. And
the more disordened a system
(disorder)? it, the more
entropy it has.
The
What totality of chemical reactions
within an organism that occur
is to maintain life,
including processes that
metabolism? break down or build complex
molecules.
, A sequence
What of biochemical reactions
where in a specific
is a metabolic molecule is altered to
pathway? produce a
final product.
A metabolic
What sequence in which
complex molecules are
is a catabolic broken down into simpler
molecules,
pathway? releasing energy in the
process
A metabolic
What sequence in which
complex molecules are
is a anabolic build from simpler
molecules, requiring
pathway? energy in the process.
What In metabolism, "uphill" refers to
processes that
does "uphill" and require energy input, like
endorgenic reactions , while
"downhill" mean "downhill" refers to processes
that release energy (e.g.,
in metabolism? exergonic reactions).
