THIRD SUMMATIVE TEST

STEM5- GEN. BIO
S.Y. 2023– 2024

NAME: _______________________________________________SCORE: _________________

GRADE & SECTION: ____________________________________________________________
TEACHER: NAZER M. LACABO, LPT

I. Identify the term being described in each item. Choose your answer from the box and write
only the CAPITAL letter.

A. Endergonic reaction F. First law of thermodynamic

B. Exergonic reaction G. Heat
C. Phosphorylation H. Thermal energy
D. ATP I. Potential energy
E. Entropy J. Energy

______1. It is defined as the ability to do work or bring about a change.

______2. It is a stored energy whose capacity to accomplish work is not being used at the moment.
______3. It is a type of kinetic energy associated with the random movement of atoms or molecules.
______4. It is the thermal energy that is moving from one object to another.
______5. It is the law of conservation of energy which states that energy cannot be created nor
destroyed, but rather, it can be changed from one form to another.
______6. It is the term used to indicate the relative amount of disorganization, which is also the
measure of randomness.
______7. It is the common energy currency of cells.
______8. It refers to the process of transferring a phosphate group from ATP to another molecule.
______9. This reaction releases to the surroundings an amount of energy equal to the difference in
potential energy between the reactants and the products.
______10. This type of reaction absorbs energy from the surroundings, so the products contain more
chemical energy than the reactants.

II. Write true if the statement is correct and false if otherwise.

______11. Growth, development, metabolism, and reproduction are life processes that require energy.
______12. The second law of thermodynamics states that 100% of the energy input is efficiently
converted into another form of energy.
______13. The more disordered a system is, the higher is its entropy.
______14. Adenosine triphosphate is a nucleotide composed of the nitrogen-containing base adenine,
the five-carbon sugar ribose, and three phosphate groups.
______15. ATP breakdown is coupled to the energy-requiring reaction, such that both the energetically
favorable and unfavorable reactions occur differently.

III. ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS. WRITE 3-5 SENTENCES TO ANSWER THE
QUESTION.
 The answer will be rated according to the rubrics below.
RUBRICS
5-has a strong central idea that is related to the topic.
4-has a few grammatical and spelling errors that do not distract from the over-all message.
3-uses common words accurately, but sentences tend to be simplistic and unsophisticated.
2-has one or two severe grammatical errors.
1-lack of a central idea.

16-20. Why is adenosine triphosphate important to cellular functions?

21-25. How does an endergonic reaction happen in relation to the use of ATP?

26-30. How does ATP provide energy to drive cellular processes?
