What Organic molecules that catalyze reactions in living systems are?
Enzymes are organic molecules that catalyze reactions in living systems.
Are fats inorganic molecules?
Fats and oils are made up of long hydrocarbon chains, specifically glycerol's and fatty acids. Hydrocarbons are organic molecules, so a fat is organic in nature.
What is a an organic compound?
An organic compound is any member of a large class of chemical compounds whose molecules contain carbon. For historical reasons discussed below, a few types of compounds such as carbonates, simple oxides of carbon and cyanides, as well as the allotropes of carbon, are considered inorganic. The division between "organic" and "inorganic" carbon compounds while "useful in organizing the vast subject of chemistry...is somewhat arbitrary".[1]Organic chemistry is the science concerned with all aspects of organic compounds. Organic synthesis is the methodology of their preparation.
Examples of organic chemicals?
Organic chemistry is a sub discipline involving study of structure, properties and reactions of organic compounds and organic materials. An example of this is photosynthesis.
Give an example of how a functional group can affect the properties of an organic compound?
An atom or group of atoms which gives the specific properties to an organic compound is a functional group or The active part of an organic molecule involved in a chemical reaction is known as the functional group. Examples are, 1-Alcohol R-OH, 2-Carboxylic acid R-COOH, 3-Ether R-O-R, e.t.c
What do organic molecules form?
By chemical reactions they form other compounds. They are the base of life.
The organic compounds that serve as helper molecules in many of the body's chemical reactions are called what?

What is the chemical equation for an organic molecule?
Millions of organic compounds reactions are known !
Why reactions rates are much slower in organic compounds?
the organic paricles are molecules. Because of strong covalent bonding within the molecule, organic compounds do not readily react. Reactions involving organic compounds are generally slower than inorganic reactions.
Do enzymes or lipids cause molecules to change?
Enzymes are the catalytic compounds (proteins) that facilitate organic chemical reactions - NOTE neither lipids or enzymes CAUSE molecules to change.
What refers to the series of chemical reactions that builds organic compounds?
anabolism
What organic molecule seeds up chemical reactions?
Chemical reactions are speeded up by enzymes (= proteins, = organic molecules) or more in general: by catalyst
Where do chemical reactions occur in organic molecules?
Most chemical compounds do not combine with one another automatically, nor do chemical compounds break apart automatically. The great majority of the chemical reactions that occur within living things must be energized. This means that the atoms of a molecule must be separated by energy put into the system. The energy forces apart the atoms in the molecules and allows the reaction to take place.
Organic compounds that help activate enzymes during chemical reactions are called?
coenzymes
What chemical group do all organic compounds have?
carbon. but then all organic molecules also have hydrogen and oxygen too.
A cell builds organic compounds through what kind of chemical reactions?
An organism builds organic molecules through the process of anabolism. It is a type of metabolism that synthesizes complex molecules from simpler ones.
The energy from the sun is converted into chemical energy in the form of organic compounds in a series of linked chemical reactions called a?
biochemical pathway
