Cellular Energy, Chemical Reactions, and Metabolic PathwaysCompare physical and cellular definitions for the term"energy".Physical: The ability to do workCellular: The ability to make specific changes occurName and describe five sorts ofenergy changes that occur incells.BiosynthesisMovementConcentration of substancesGeneration of electrical potentialHeatBiosynthesisThe building up of biomolecules or biological structures within aliving cell; a process that requires energy(Synthetic work is demonstrated by the making of daughter cellsfrom a parent cell)MovementRepresented by the streaming movement of the cytoplasmConcentration of substanceseffected by active transportationEnergy of Concentrationthe work ofmoving molecules or ions against a concentrationgradient, that is, moving them from where they are lessconcentrated to where they are already more concentratedElectrical potentialA difference in charge across a membrane based on adifferencein the concentration of positive and or negative ions across themembraneCathedrals and cellsrequire energy for their constructionEnergyis the ability to make a specific changes occur within a cellCellular energyPreview Mode
