The breaking apart the link between ATP and phosphate which produces heat is catabolic, exergonic, and spontaneous. The burning of paper is catabolic, exergonic, and spontaneous.
Forming a triacylglyceride from three fatty acids and glycerol is an anabolic reaction that is endergonic (requires energy input) and non-spontaneous under normal cellular conditions.
Exergonic vs. Endergonic reactions: exergonic release more energy than they absorb. Endergonic reactions absorb more energy than they release.Exergonic reactions release energy while endergonic reactions absorb energy.
Catabolic: long cellulose polymers are broken down into carbon dioxide, water, and carbon monoxide gases. Exergonic: can be used to do work Spontaneous: once started the reaction will reach completion by itself, driven by a very positive change in entropy. However the reaction has a high activation energy. Therefore it is thermodynamically favourable but kinetically unfavourable.
Exergonic reactions release energy and are spontaneous, while endergonic reactions require energy input and are non-spontaneous. ATP is used to drive endergonic reactions by providing the necessary energy for them to occur. ATP is regenerated through exergonic reactions by capturing the energy released during these reactions.
The equation you provided describes photosynthesis, which is an endergonic process because it requires energy input to convert carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and sugars. Endergonic processes require energy to proceed and are not spontaneous.
A catabolic reaction is typically exergonic, meaning it releases energy.
No, catabolic pathways are exergonic processes.
Catabolic: cellulose is broken down to carbon dioxide, water, and carbon monoxide. Exergonic: energy is released which can be used for work. Spontaneous: once the reaction is started, it will go to completion.
No, catabolic processes are typically exergonic, meaning they release energy.
