    3 Yeast Metabolism Metabolism refers to the biochemical assimilation (in anabolic pathways) and dissimilation (in catabolic pathways) of nutrients by a cell. Like in other organisms‚ in yeast these processes are mediated by enzymic reactions‚ and regulation of the underlying pathways have been studied in great detail in yeast. Anabolic pathways include reductive processes leading to the production of new cellular material‚ while catabolic pathways are oxidative processes which remove electrons

    Food . The energy released by oxidizing glucose is saved in high energy bonds of: ATP and other activated carrier molecues 2. Sugars derived from food are broken down by: glycolysis‚ the citric acid cycle‚ and oxidative phosphorylation 3. Catabolism: a breakdown process in which enzymes degrade complex molecules into simpler ones 4. The digestion of polymeric food molecules into monomeric subunits occurs in: extracellular space (i.g. lumen of the intestines) and in lysosomes 5. The oxidative

    Digestive system and respirational system 4) What is meant by the term metabolism the chemical processes that occur within a living organism in order to maintain life. 5) Why cant a single cell grow very large? If it grows too large it will not be able to take sufficient food and oxygen or eliminate waste molecules fast enough. 6) Why must large organisms be multicellular? To overcome the problem of small cell size. Metabolism is the total of all the chemical processes that take place in the body

    Unit 5: Anatomy and Physiology (P4) Explain the physiology of two named body systems in relation to energy metabolism in the body In this task I am going to discuss the three systems involved in energy metabolism in the body. The chemical equation for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + O2 = E + CO2 + H2O OR Glucose + Oxygen = Energy + Carbon Dioxide + Water In order to release energy we need glucose which is a simple carbohydrate that is produced after digestion of food and we also need oxygen
