Technically the brewing of beer by ancient civilizations is a synthesis. Making Wine as well. So ancient Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians (as well as many others) synthesized alcohol.
The alchemists, although they had no real chemistry understanding, were also synthesizing some things.
In the 1800's after chemistry as a science of experimentation became more accepted, many substances were synthesized. One of the most notable was in the 1820's when Wohler synthesized urea proving that allorganic chemicals did not have to come from nature. Earlier (date unsure) in the late 1700's/early 1800's Cavendish burned pure hydrogen gas and synthesized water. He did not publicize his findings but later these were repeated by Lavoisierand most give Lavoisier the credit instead of Cavendish. Most don't call this a 'synthesis' but just a proof that water is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen. Bayer made aspirin (and a fortune).

What molecules are synthesized from carbon skeletons bonded to hydrogen atoms?
organic
Energy is primarily when organic molecules are synthesized and when they are broken down?
absorbed,released
Where are Secretory proteins and membrane molecules are synthesized mainly by what?
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
What types of molecules and cell parts would be synthesized during the growth phase of the cell cycle?
New organells are formed.Proteins and DNA are synthesized efficiently.
What cell part has the job of processing and packaging molecules synthesized by the cell?
Golgi apparatus
When is vitamin D synthesized?
Vitamin D is synthesized when modified Cholesterol molecules. . .
Vitamin d is synthesized when modified?
Vitamin D is synthesized when modified Cholesterol molecules. . .
Vitamin D is synthesized when what molecules are modified?
Cholesterol

What molecules are synthesized in light reaction?
Main products are ATP and NADH.Oxygen is a bi product.
What cell part has the job of processing and packaging molecules synthesized by the cell?
Golgi apparatus
Why does a cell need to break down polymers into monomers?
Because macromolecules are large molecules and are insoluble. It is easier to store them and use them when they have been hydrolysed to smaller molecules and are made soluble.
How many molecules are synthesized by living organisms?
Billions, but what needs attention are the trillions of unneeded molecules that are 'automatically' excluded from the cells of living organisms.
What is the site and temporary storage area for newly synthesized molecules?
Rough ER (Endoplasmic Reticulum)
