Transduction Response Chapter 6: An Introduction to Metabolism There are two types of reactions in metabolic pathways: anabolic a. Which reactions release energy? b. Which reactions consume energy? c. Which reactions build up larger molecules? d. Which reactions break down molecules? e. Which reactions are considered “uphill”? f. What type of reaction is photosynthesis? g. What type of reaction is cellular respiration? h. Which reactions require enzymes to catalyze reactions? 3. Contrast with kinetic energy potential energy. What is free energy? Here is a molecule of ATP. Label it. Use an to show which bond is likely to break. arrow What is a catalyst? What is (EA)? activation energy Label this figure while you define each of the following terms: enzyme substrate
