What do we call a chemical that breaks down large molecules of food into smaller molecules of food?
They are called enzymes.
What do you call the molecules which make reactions work such as the breakdown of food molecules?
Those types of molecules are called enzymes.
Heterotrophs get carbon molecules by?
eating food
Molecules which serve as chemical to make reaction work-like the breakdown of food molecules?
enzymes
Molecules which serve as chemicals to make reaction work- like the breakdown of food molecules?
They are called enzymes. They aren't necessarily considered molecules, but I suppose they are, perhaps very large ones. These enzymes act as a catalyst to speed the decompositions along. Stomach acid helps by oxidising the food as well as creating the environment for the proteins to function.
How microwaves cook food?
the microwave makes the water molecules in the food move and bump around this causes friction in the food to be cooked.
How do microwaves affect the water?
microwaves vibrate water molecules in food to create heat
What substance absorbs microwaves?
Water Molecules in the food
What ubstance in the food absorbs the microwaves?
Water molecules in the food. Microwaves work by only vibrating the water molecules, in order to increase the temperature of the food without significantly altering the properties of the food itself.
What chemical in food absorbs energy from microwaves?
Water molecules
How do a microwave cook food?
By bombarding the food with electromagnetic radiation (microwaves, which are tuned to resonance with water molecules).
What is the working principle of microoven?
Microwaves excite the water molecules in food to the boiling point.
Why can frozen food be defrosted using microwaves?
Because the microwave vibrates the water molecules in the food, heating it up.
How do microwaves cook food?
the microwave makes the water molecules in the food move and bump around this causes friction in the food to be cooked.
How can microwaves cook food and have no effect on other certain substances such as paper?
Microwaves basically work by acting on the molecules like water that absorb radiation, vibrate and 'cook' the food due to an induced energy. Dry paper and other substances that do not have molecules that are energised significantly to induce heat are therefore not affected.
What type of heat does a microwave produce?
Microwaves heat up food by exciting water molecules within whatever you put ino the microwaves path. This causes them to vibrate, this vibration heats the food up via conduction. Although remember that the water itself is "heated via the radiation of the microwaves.
Can you see micro waves?
No, unless you are not talking about microwaves in the electromagnetic spectrum. The reason we can not see them is because they are not part of the visible spectrum. Microwaves have lower frequencies.Microwaves do use microwaves. The microwave uses microwaves to excite the water molecules making the food cook faster than a conventional oven.
