Which reactions require enzymes to catalyze reactions calabolic or anabolic?

Anabolic - Term describing enzyme-catalyzed reactions in a cell that involves the synthesis of complex molecules out of simpler subunits and which uses energy.(From Sparknotes)


What is the name given to the sequence whereby a series of chemical reactions is controlled by several enzymes?

That sequence is called a metabolic pathway. Metabolic pathways are a series of chemical reactions that are catalyzed by specific enzymes working together to convert a substrate into a final product.


What are two other processes catalyzed by enzymes?

Enzymes act as a catalyst in biochemical reactions. Hence they are the key players of all the reactions that occurs in cells, such as metabolic conversions, synthesis and degradation of biomolecules and so on.


Which irreversible reactions are involved in glycolysis?

The irreversible reactions in glycolysis are catalyzed by the enzymes hexokinase, phosphofructokinase, and pyruvate kinase. These reactions involve the conversion of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate, fructose-6-phosphate to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, and phosphoenolpyruvate to pyruvate, respectively.


What is the effect that enzymes have on certain chemical reactions in living things?

Enzymes lower the activation energy (or free energy of activation for the very scientific) of the chemical reactions they catalyse. The enzymes can make a reaction proceed much more quickly than it otherwise would by astronomical figures, e.g. 109 times! Enzymes don't affect the equilibrium position, but they do affect the rate.

Why are enzymes beneficial to cells?

Enzymes are beneficial to cells due to the functions that they perform. Most chemical reactions are catalyzed by enzymes in the cell.


What is the relationship of genes and enzymes?

The link is that a metabolism is made up of different reactions and these reactions have to be catalyzed by enzymes, because without these enzymes most of the reactions in the metabolism wouldn't proceed.

A substrate


Rank reactions from fastest to lowest uncatalyzed reaction reaction catalyzed by enzyme A reaction catalyzed by enzyme B?

Reaction catalyzed by enzyme B > reaction catalyzed by enzyme A > uncatalyzed reaction. Enzymes speed up reactions by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur, making them faster than uncatalyzed reactions. The specificity and efficiency of enzyme-substrate interactions determine the rate of reaction catalyzed by different enzymes.


What is the reaction for breaking down glucose?

The reaction for breaking down Glucose is called: GlycolysisThese are biological reactions. They are catalyzed by enzymes. Kinases, dehydrogenases and isomerases are important enzymes in Glycolysis.


A reaction that is catalyzed by an enzyme usually absorbs less energy and is faster than normal reactions?

Enzymes lower the activation energy required for a reaction to occur, making it faster. This allows reactions to proceed more readily at physiological conditions compared to non-catalyzed reactions that may require higher temperatures. Ultimately, enzymes increase the rate of reactions without being consumed in the process.

What is the reactants of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction known as?

Reactants. "Substrate" is another possibility.
