Biosynthesis (also called biogenesis) is an enzyme-catalyzed process in cells of living organisms by which substrates are converted to more complex products.[1] The biosynthesis process often consists of several enzymatic steps in which the product of one step is used as substrate in the following step. Examples for such multi-step biosynthetic pathways are those for the production of amino acids, fatty acids, and natural products.[2] Biosynthesis plays a major role in all cells, and many dedicated metabolic routes combined constitute general metabolism.
The prerequisites for biosynthesis are precursor compounds, chemical energy (such as in the form ATP), and catalytic enzymes, which may require reduction equivalents (e.g., in the form of NADH, NADPH).
Commonly known complex products of biosynthesis include proteins, vitamins, and antibiotics. Most organic compounds in living organisms are built in biosynthetic pathways.

Does the bio synthesis of ribosomal subunits occur in the nucleus?
In the nucleolus of the nucleus to be exact. Google nucleolus.
Is hair a physical or chemical change?
Hair (newly grown) is a product of many (bio)chemical synthesis reactions.
Which bio-molecule is involved in dehydration synthesis?
Dehydration synthesis refers to a reaction where molecules are joined by forming water. One molecule should have an should have a hydroxyl group, while the other molecule should have a hydrogen atom for dehydration synthesis to occur.
Which reaction is NOT an exergonic reaction a protein synthesis b digestion c fire d cellular respiration e movement?
Protein synthesis, it's an endergonic reaction. (AP bio ch 5&6 test?)
What is the key regulatory step in cholesterol biosynthesis?
Well, cholesterol bio-synthesis is controlled by the regulation of HMG-CoA Reductase. This happens near the beginning of the pathway, so in my opinion would seem to be the key step in the process. There are actually 5 steps considered to be the bio-synthesis pathway of cholesterol. They all seem to me as important but it's just my opinion. Hope it helps.
