Enzymes affects the reactions in living cells by changing the?
Enzymes act as catalysts. They speed up the reaction time.
What is the effect enzymes have on reactions in living cells?
An enzyme lowers the activation energy of a reaction meaning that the reaction can occur at a much lower temperature. Enzymes are essential for supporting life, without enzymes the daily reactions that take place within all living organisms could not take place and life would cease to be able to exist.
What chemical reactions within the body sometimes require special proteins called to catalyze the reaction?
The (general) name of proteins that makes chemical reactions inside the body work is 'enzyme'. Enzymes have a 'catalyst' function. There is one for each specific biological reaction.
What is a sequence of chemical reactions within a cell?
The reactions that occur in cells are both anabolic (building up) and catabolic (breaking down). The catabolic reactions provide the energy for the anabolic reactions. The sum total of all catabolic and anabolic reactions in the cell is called metabolism.
What represents the collection of chemical reaction that occur in a cell?
METABOLISM
How are the chemical products of the light trapping reactions coupled to the synthesis of carbohydrates?
Basically, the light-trapping reactions trap sunlight within them. The products of these reactions are glucose and chlorophyll. These products are coupled to the synthesis of carbohydrates because when carbohydrates are synthesized, glucose is created. Both reactions have a product of glucose. This is how they are related/coupled.

Are Chemical reactions in cells faster than the same reactions outside cells?
True chemical reactions in cells are faster than the same reactions outside cells. The substance upon which an enzyme acts is called the substrate.
What are the two stages in photosynthesis?
Photosynthesis is performed in two stages:Light reactions (or light-dependent reactions): Energy from sunlight is required.Dark reactions (or light-independent reactions): No sunlight is required. However, energy formed by the light-dependent reactions is needed.

Sugars are created during?
Sugars are created during the light independent reactions of photosynthesis. Sugar is the byproduct of the photosynthesis and is a chemical reaction within a plant's cell.

METABOLISM
What kind of reaction takes place within the grana?
Light-dependent reactions use the excited electrons produced by the light-capturing events that are used to produce ATP.
Where convert light reactions within the chloroplast?
Photosynthesis consists of light-dependent reactions and light-independent reactions. These light reactions occur within the chloroplast thylakoids, where the aforementioned chlorophyll pigments are found.
How is heat from the sun an exothermic reaction?
Exos= outside , thermos=temperature or heat So within the definition itself it can be known that in exothermic reactions heat is released. In chemical reactions the energy supplied is use in breaking of bonds, but energy is release by making bonds. In exothermic reactions, the energy supplied is sufficient for chemical reaction to occur (to break existing bonds) and the excess energy is given in the form of heat (from making new bonds).If the reaction is exothermic, it means that the total energy it took to break the bonds is less than the total energy released when forming new bonds -- so net energy is released in the form of heat. for example 2H2 +O2 ----> 2H20 which is exothermic reaction. Combustion reactions in general are exothermic reactions.
