This unit introduces core knowledge of cellular structure and function‚ and the organisation of the body as a whole‚ and then builds on this to develop a more detailed knowledge of the fine anatomy and physiology of the systems involved in energy metabolism. Learners will examine the homeostatic mechanisms involved in regulating these systems to maintain health. Learners will be given the opportunity to undertake practical activities which will require them to take measurements of the cardio-vascular

Response to stimuli: all lives can respond to internal or external stimuli Homeostasis: all lives have the ability to maintain a relatively stable internal environment—self-regulation

Carbs can be converted to fat‚ however lipogenesis from glucose is less effective o Weight gain from CHO thought to be caused by sparing lipolysis rather than direct CHO lipogenesis o PDH Complex main link of glucose metabolism to FA synthesis (pyruvate acetyl CoA) Most AAs can serve as precursors for fat synthesis

Chapter 6-Intro to Metabolism METABOLISM= all the chemical reactions in an organism CATABOLIC PATHWAY (CATABOLISM)• release of energy by the breakdown of complex molecules to simpler compounds EX: digestive enzymes break down food ANABOLIC PATHWAY (ANABOLISM) • consumes energy to build complicated molecules from simpler ones EX: linking amino acids to form proteins ORGANISMS TRANSFORM ENERGY ENERGY- capacity to do work KINETIC ENERGY- energy of moving objects POTENTIAL ENERGY- energy

enzymes work together in metabolic pathways‚ taking a product (end result) of one metabolic reaction as a substrate (substance or molecule at start of process) for another reaction. Metabolic pathways create the avenue for fructolysis‚ the breakdown (catabolism) of fructose‚ occurring in the liver‚ and in muscle and fat tissue. Most of fructose obtained by diet is metabolized in the liver‚ where the enzyme fructokinase is abundant. This enzyme phosphorylates the substrate (fructose) into fructose-1-phosphate

8.1 The totality of an organism’s chemical reactions is called metabolism. Metabolism is an emergent property of life that arises from interactions between molecules within the orderly environment of the cell. a. The chemistry of life is organized into metabolic pathways Metabolic pathways begin with a specific molecule‚ which is then altered in a series of defined steps to form a specific product. A specific enzyme catalyzes each step of the pathway. Catabolic pathways release energy by
