BIOENERGETICS
• All living matter, from the conventional basic unit of life, the cell, to a
higher-order integrated manifestation of cells, an organism, exists an
open dynamical system requiring capabilities for extracting energy from
respective interstitial, host, or ambient environments, for converting
that same energy to biologically useful forms, and for employing
biologically useful energy to drive energetically expensive life processes.
• All of biophysics and biochemistry as they concern the study and
description of energy transformations that occur during thousands of
organic chemical reactions in living soft matter.
BIOENERGETICS
• Catabolism
• Anabolism
Metabolism
• Metabolism is the process through which living systems acquire and use
free energy to carry out functions
• Catabolism is the degradation pathway to salvage components and
energy from biomolecules such as nucleotide, proteins, lipids, and
polysaccharides. The process generates energy
• Anabolism is the biosynthesis of biomolecules such as nucleotides,
proteins, lipids, and polysaccharides from simple precursor molecules.
This process requires energy.
