Question

Which of the following reactions is most likely to be endergonic?

the digestion of protein from food into amino acids

Biochemical reactions must always be consistent with laws of thermodynamics. Which of the below reactions would produce products with lower entropy than the starting material?

the conversion of a polypeptide to amino acids

ATP has potential energy that can be used by the cell to do work. Where is much of the potential energy of this molecule?

Polypeptides are broken down by hydrolysis reactions into their amino acid monomers. Given this, why don’t we need to worry about our own proteins dissolving in the rain while walking to campus? (This would be a serious problem in rainy states like Oregon!)

the breakdown of a phospholipid into glycerol and fatty acids

Explanation / Answer

The replication of DNA form free nucleotide is an endergonic reaction, the addition of nucleotide is an anabolic and enderogonic reaction The conversion of monosachharides to starch is the reaction in which produces lower entropy than starting material The carbon nitrogen bond of the base have more potential energy All of these
