What is the building up and breaking down of chemicals in the cell?
Metabolism. The building up (synthesis) of molecules is anabolism, and breakdown of chemicals is catabolism. Metabolism is the term for all cell chemistry, including anabolism and catabolism, as well as other reactions, such as interconversions.
What types of reactions can enzymes catalyze?
Enzymes are biological substances which catalyze biochemical reactions. Enzymes can catalyze both catabolic and anabolic reactions; whether in breaking down or building up complex molecules.
Which kind of molecule provides building blocks for tissues. transports other molecules and helps regulate certain reactions in the body?
Proteins
In a plant cell the synthesis of sugar compounds from inorganic raw materials occurs in the 1 cell membrane 2 mitochondria 3 nucleus 4 chloroplasts?
Go for 4: chloroplasts.The synthesis of sugars from inorganic compounds (carbon dioxide and water) requires energy, and that energy is, in plants, in the form of light. Both the conversion of light energy into chemical energy and the synthesis (building) of sugars from smaller molecules take place in chloroplasts.
What the identity of the building blocks required to synthesis proteins in an animal cell?
Amino acids
How are dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis reactions related to monomers and polymers?
Yes! Dehydration is the combining of two or more molecules while producing water. Hydrolysis is the addition of water to a molecule to split it up into smaller molecules. Hydrolysis is to Degradation as Dehydration is to Synthesis. Matter of fact, it is usually called Dehydration Synthesis!
Is the synthesis of a protein from amino acids as anabolic or a catabolic?
Anabolic reactions are reactions which build molecules up, catabolic reactions break them down. Since protein synthesis is a 'building' reaction it is anabolic.
Is the synthesis of a protein from amino acids classified as anabolic or catabolic?
Anabolic reactions are reactions which build molecules up, catabolic reactions break them down. Since protein synthesis is a 'building' reaction it is anabolic.
What is the building process of lipids?
dehydration synthesis
Are anabolic reactions called synthesis reactions?
Catabolism is breaking molecules down into smaller molecules (to get energy). You can remember this if you've ever had a cat -- they break things. Anabolism is the opposite: building things up (to make useful stuff). Now look up the definition of synthesis.
What is the main function dehydration synthesis?
In laymen terms, dehydration synthesis can best be explained as the process of building something up while removing water from it. It's considered a condensation process because two molecules are condensed to form a larger molecule.
Why are polymerization reations sometimes called dehydration synthesis reaction?
Not all polymerisations can be called dehydration synthesis reactions. However it is a very common way in which polymers can be formed. One way monomer units can join together is by eliminating a small molecule such as water between them, hence dehydration. (Condensation is more usual). Synthesis means building up, so the polymer is built up by losing water.
Is the process of building larger molecules by combining smaller molecules.?
It is called anabolism. The opposite process is termed catabolism.
Building complex molecules from less complex ones?
synthesis/catabolism
What is an example of anabolic metabolism?
Anytime two or more reactants are combined it is anabolism, the opposite being catabolism. Examples of Anabolism # Protein synthesis # DNA replication # Muscles growth # Any of the dehydration synthesis reactionsExamples of Catabolism# Hydrolysis # Digestion
What is the building up and breaking down of chemicals in the cell?
Metabolism. The building up (synthesis) of molecules is anabolism, and breakdown of chemicals is catabolism. Metabolism is the term for all cell chemistry, including anabolism and catabolism, as well as other reactions, such as interconversions.
The sum of all the chemical reactions involve in building up or breaking down molecules called?
The sum of all the chemical reactions involved in building up of complex molecules is known as anabolism; and the breaking down of molecules is known as catabolism.
