Chemical reactions that release energy often occur spontaneously. Chemical reactions that absorb energy will not occur without energy.
energy is released or absorbed.
to increase the reaction rate
to make energy-carrier molecules like NADPH Apex
The amount of energy required to break a bond and produce neutral atoms is called the bond energy. It harbors the energy.
Chemical reactions are a result of valence electron transfer and/or sharing. Valence electrons are located in the outer-most orbitals of the reactant elements. In a sense, though, you could say protons are also involved in chemical reactions. Although an element will never donate, accept, or share protons in a CHEMICAL reaction, they are part of the determination in an elements reactivity. Reactions that do involve protons are termed "nuclear reactions," and are not chemical reactions. In fact, a lot of the methods used to determine chemical reactions -- such as enthalpy -- cannot even be applied to nuclear reactions. Neutrons, like protons are involved in nuclear reactions, but never in chemical reactions. Hope this helps!

it provides energy for some reactions to take place.
All chemical reactions need a certain amount of activation energy to get started.
Enzymes increase the rate of the chemical reactions carried out during metabolism.
Clorophyll collects the light energy that is used to fuel and start the chemical reactions for photosynthesis.
it makes you breathe
it provides energy
Activation energy is needed to trigger some non-organic chemical reactions, For example the use of a blasting cap to detonate high explosives.
Your thinking is perhaps confused, you seem to imply that energy is carried around by organisms in a sort of bag, or some part of the body, like a packet of cookies. Energy is generated or absorbed by each of the multitude of chemical reactions continuously taking place in the body. Those chemical reactions are what constitute a living being.
Enzymes speed up chemical reactions.
To function as enzymes (in chemical reactions).
Enzyematic reactions that occur from chemical reactions in the body speed up the activity and physiologically have everything to do with chemical reactions in the body.
