1. Describe the purpose of energy carriers such as NAD, NADP, FAD and ATP.
2. Briefly describe how each of the following can affect the activity of an enzyme: temperature,
pH, substrate concentration, enzyme inhibitors.
3. What is a redox reaction?
4. Describe how ATP is involved in coupling anabolic and catabolic reactions.
5. Describe how each of the following are used to produce ATP: substrate level phosphorylation,
oxidative phosphorylation; photophosphorylation
6. Summarize the stages in the aerobic breakdown of glucose, including glycolysis, the
conversion of pyruvic acid to acetyl coenzymeA, the krebs cycle, and the electron transport
chain/chemiosmosis. How much energy in the form of ATP is extracted from each glucose that
enters the pathway?
