Energy

Figure 4.5 Animated! Activation energy. Most reactions, including

energy-releasing ones such as burning wood cellulose, will not begin

without at least a small input of energy. This activation energy is shown

in the graph above as a bump in an energy hill. Reactants in this example

have more energy than the products. Activation energy keeps this and

other energy-releasing reactions from starting spontaneously.

A) Cells store energy in the chemical bonds of organic compounds.

B) Cells retrieve energy stored in the chemical bonds of organic compounds.

How Enzymes are Regulated

Cofactors or Coenzymes

Figure 4.8 Regulatory molecule binding to enzymes. Some types of regulatory

molecules (red) bind to an enzyme in a place other than the active site. This binding

changes the shape of the enzyme in a way that enhances or inhibits its function.

keeps plant parts erect.

These cells in an iris petal

are plump with cytoplasm.

E) Cells from a wilted iris petal.

The cytoplasm shrank, and

the plasma membrane has

pulled away from the cell wall.
