Overview: The Energy of Life
• The living cell is a miniature chemical factory where thousands of reactions occur
The cell extracts energy and applies energy to perform work
Some organisms even convert energy to light, as in bioluminescence

Concept 8.1: An organism’s metabolism transforms matter and energy, subject to the laws of thermodynamics
Metabolism is the totality of an organism’s chemical reactions
Metabolism is an emergent property of life that arises from interactions between molecules within the cell

Organization of the Chemistry of Life into Metabolic Pathways
A metabolic pathway begins with a specific molecule and ends with a product
Each step is catalyzed by a specific enzyme

Catabolic pathways release energy by breaking down complex molecules into simpler compounds
Cellular respiration, the breakdown of glucose in the presence of oxygen, is an example of a pathway of catabolism

Anabolic pathways consume energy to build complex molecules from simpler ones
The synthesis of protein from amino acids is an example of anabolism
Bioenergetics is the study of how organisms manage their energy resources

Forms of Energy
Energy is the capacity to cause change Energy exists in various forms, some of which
can perform work

Kinetic energy is energy associated with motion
Heat (thermal energy) is kinetic energy associated with random movement of atoms or molecules
Potential energy is energy that matter possesses because of its location or structure
Chemical energy is potential energy available for release in a chemical reaction
Energy can be converted from one form to another

The Laws of Energy Transformation
Thermodynamics is the study of energy transformations
A closed system, such as that approximated by liquid in a thermos, is isolated from its surroundings
In an open system, energy and matter can be transferred between the system and its surroundings
Organisms are open systems

The First Law of Thermodynamics
According to the first law of thermodynamics, the energy of the universe is constant: – Energy can be transferred and transformed, but it
cannot be created or destroyed The first law is also called the principle of
conservation of energy
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
![Page 15: Chapter 8 An Introduction to Metabolism. You should be able to: 1. Distinguish between the following pairs of terms: catabolic and anabolic pathways;](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551599c1550346a1418b5daa/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The Second Law of Thermodynamics
During every energy transfer or transformation, some energy is unusable, and is often lost as heat
According to the second law of thermodynamics: – Every energy transfer or transformation increases
the entropy (disorder) of the universe

Living cells unavoidably convert organized forms of energy to heat
Spontaneous processes occur without energy input; they can happen quickly or slowly
For a process to occur without energy input, it must increase the entropy of the universe

Biological Order and Disorder
Cells create ordered structures from less ordered materials
Organisms also replace ordered forms of matter and energy with less ordered forms
Energy flows into an ecosystem in the form of light and exits in the form of heat

![Page 19: Chapter 8 An Introduction to Metabolism. You should be able to: 1. Distinguish between the following pairs of terms: catabolic and anabolic pathways;](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551599c1550346a1418b5daa/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The evolution of more complex organisms does not violate the second law of thermodynamics
Entropy (disorder) may decrease in an organism, but the universe’s total entropy increases

Concept 8.2: The free-energy change of a reaction tells us whether or not the reaction occurs spontaneously
Biologists want to know which reactions occur spontaneously and which require input of energy
To do so, they need to determine energy changes that occur in chemical reactions

Free-Energy Change, G
A living system’s free energy is energy that can do work when temperature and pressure are uniform, as in a living cell
Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
![Page 22: Chapter 8 An Introduction to Metabolism. You should be able to: 1. Distinguish between the following pairs of terms: catabolic and anabolic pathways;](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062511/551599c1550346a1418b5daa/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The change in free energy (∆G) during a process is related to the change in enthalpy, or change in total energy (∆H), change in entropy (∆S), and temperature in Kelvin (T):
∆G = ∆H – T∆S• Only processes with a negative ∆G are
spontaneous• Spontaneous processes can be harnessed to
perform work

Free Energy, Stability, and Equilibrium
Free energy is a measure of a system’s instability, its tendency to change to a more stable state
During a spontaneous change, free energy decreases and the stability of a system increases
Equilibrium is a state of maximum stability A process is spontaneous and can perform
work only when it is moving toward equilibrium

Exergonic and Endergonic Reactions in Metabolism
An exergonic reaction proceeds with a net release of free energy and is spontaneous
An endergonic reaction absorbs free energy from its surroundings and is nonspontaneous

Equilibrium and Metabolism
Reactions in a closed system eventually reach equilibrium and then do no work
Cells are not in equilibrium; they are open systems experiencing a constant flow of materials
A defining feature of life is that metabolism is never at equilibrium
A catabolic pathway in a cell releases free energy in a series of reactions
Closed and open hydroelectric systems can serve as analogies

Concept 8.3: ATP powers cellular work by coupling exergonic reactions to endergonic reactions A cell does three main kinds of work:
Chemical Transport Mechanical
To do work, cells manage energy resources by energy coupling, the use of an exergonic process to drive an endergonic one
Most energy coupling in cells is mediated by ATP

The Structure and Hydrolysis of ATP
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the cell’s energy shuttle
ATP is composed of ribose (a sugar), adenine (a nitrogenous base), and three phosphate groups

The bonds between the phosphate groups of ATP’s tail can be broken by hydrolysis
Energy is released from ATP when the terminal phosphate bond is broken
This release of energy comes from the chemical change to a state of lower free energy, not from the phosphate bonds themselves

How ATP Performs Work
The three types of cellular work (mechanical, transport, and chemical) are powered by the hydrolysis of ATP
In the cell, the energy from the exergonic reaction of ATP hydrolysis can be used to drive an endergonic reaction
Overall, the coupled reactions are exergonic

The Regeneration of ATP
ATP is a renewable resource that is regenerated by addition of a phosphate group to adenosine diphosphate (ADP)
• The energy to phosphorylate ADP comes from catabolic reactions in the cell
• The chemical potential energy temporarily stored in ATP drives most cellular work

The Activation Energy Barrier
Every chemical reaction between molecules involves bond breaking and bond forming
The initial energy needed to start a chemical reaction is called the free energy of activation, or activation energy (EA)
Activation energy is often supplied in the form of heat from the surroundings

Enzymes catalyze reactions by lowering the EA barrier
Enzymes do not affect the change in free energy (∆G); instead, they hasten reactions that would occur eventually

Substrate Specificity of Enzymes
The reactant that an enzyme acts on is called the enzyme’s substrate
The enzyme binds to its substrate, forming an enzyme-substrate complex
The active site is the region on the enzyme where the substrate binds
Induced fit of a substrate brings chemical groups of the active site into positions that enhance their ability to catalyze the reaction

Allosteric Regulation of Enzymes
Allosteric regulation may either inhibit or stimulate an enzyme’s activity
Allosteric regulation occurs when a regulatory molecule binds to a protein at one site and affects the protein’s function at another site
