What is Metabolism: Energy, Enzymes, and ATP about?
Metabolism transforms matter and energy through two main types of reactions: catabolic reactions that break down molecules and release energy, and anabolic reactions that build up molecules and require energy. The free energy change (ΔG) of a reaction indicates whether it occurs spontaneously. Cellular respiration is exergonic (ΔG is negative), while photosynthesis is endergonic but is driven by sunlight. ATP powers cellular work by coupling exergonic reactions to endergonic reactions. When ATP is broken do
