What molecule is split during the light reactions of photosynthesis of release oxygen?
Water is split during light reactions to release oxygen.
Proteins that catalyze reactions are called?
Proteins that catalyze reactions are generally called enzymes.
The process of forming a larger molecule from its monomer is called what?
Many terms can describe this process. The reactions involved are called dehydration synthesis (aka condensation) reactions or more specifically polymerization reactions. However the process can be called an anabolic process.
What are the reactions of the first stage of the photosynthesis called?
This is called the light phase oh photosynthesis as opposed to the dark phase. During the light phase, photons excite enzymes on the thylakoid. Also can be known as Light-Dependent Reactions
Are chemical reactions that occur in cells called biochemical reactions?
The generation of carbon dioxide and the composition of enzymes.
Sometimes an atom loses or gains an electron. What is this called?
ionization Redox reactions
Chemical reactions that release energy do if occur or don't?
These are called exothermic reactions.
What chemical reaction release thermal energy?
only nuclear reactionsChemical reactions that release free energy are called exergonic reactions. Fire and cellular respiration are examples of exergonic reactions.
Reactions involving the particles in the nucleus of an atom are called what?
Nuclear Fusion. This process involves 'fusing' together two smaller nuclei to form a bigger nucleus.
What are chemical reactions that release energy in the abscence of oxygen called?
that's exothermic reactions in general. :)
Reactions that release heat as bonds are broken are called .?
exothermic
What is the most reactive group of nonmetals whose atomsgain one electron in chemical reactions called?
The halogens, group 17
Why enzymes are called hydrolytic enzymes?
Careful! Not all enzymes are hydrolytic. Hydrolytic enzymes catalyse reactions in which there is breaking of molecules (involving the participation of water molecules). There are enzymes which catalyse reactions in which molecules join together to form a larger molecule (condensation reactions)
What is is involved in Red-ox reactions?
REDoxREDUCTION:-addition of electron or removal of oxygen or addition of hydrogen is called reduction.oxidation:-removal of electron,addition of oxygen and removal of hydrogen is called oxidation.Edit : the transfer of electrons between reactants is one of the choices.
What Drug block release of a substance that causes allergic reactions are called what?
Antihistamines
Which subatomic particle determines reactivity?
Electrons, for chemical reactions
How its called The ordered sequence of reactions that move store and release energy?
metabolic pathways
