Ch-07: Metabolism
This chapter introduces the concept of metabolism, explaining how all chemical reactions inside living organisms are essential for growth, maintenance, and survival. Students will understand the difference between catabolism, which breaks down complex molecules to release energy, and anabolism, which builds complex molecules using energy, with clear everyday examples.
The notes provide a detailed explanation of enzymes as biological catalysts, their characteristics, and the lock-and-key mechanism of enzyme action. Students will also learn about the
factors affecting enzyme activity, including temperature, pH, substrate concentration, enzyme concentration, and inhibitors. A clear comparison between competitive and non-competitive inhibition helps explain how enzyme activity can be regulated.The chapter further discusses the role of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) as the energy currency of the cell, highlighting its importance in powering biological processes. Students will also study the complete process of photosynthesis in plants, including the raw materials, products, significance, and factors affecting the process.
Finally, the notes explain cellular respiration, comparing aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration, their differences, energy production, end products, and biological importance. Written in simple English with diagrams, flowcharts, comparison tables, and concise revision points, these notes are ideal for FBISE Class 9 students, teachers, tutors, and anyone looking for high-quality Biology study material.
