How do you reverse dehydration synthesis?
the opposite of the dehydration synthesis is hydrolysis. it does the exact opposite which is to break apart a molecule by adding a water molecule.
The effects of the sympathetic nervous system are essentially opposite of which nervous system?
The effects of the sympathetic nervous system are essential opposite those of the parasympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system accelerates functions such as heart rate and breathing and the parasympathetic slows these bodily processes down. The sympathetic also inhibits digestion, whereas the parasympathetic stimulates digestion. The sympathetic nervous system produces "fight-or-flight" reactions, while the parasympathetic functions under relaxed conditions.
Synthesis reactions where molecules in the human body are made or joined together is called what?
The process of joining unit molecules or monemors together to produce polymers is called dehydration synthesis. The opposite of this (breaking poymers down to monemors) is called hydrolysis. hope this helped?
Why RNA primers are needed during DNA replication and what is their fate?
DNA polymerase cannot begin the synthesis of new DNA.To synthesis a new strand of DNA ,RNA primer is required.The complementary RNA nucleotides,that are added opposite to the single strand of parent DNA are the RNA primer.
What are the hydrolytic breakdown products of protein hydrolysis?
Hydrolysis is the opposite of dehydration synthesis- water is added. A hydrogen* (H) joins to a monomer and a hydroxyl* (OH) joins to the adjacent monomer.
How are photosynthisis and respreation are considered opposite prosses?
The end products of photosynthesis are the reactants in respiration. This leads us to the conclusion that photosynthesis and respiration are opposite processes.

What reaction is the opposite of hydrolysis?
Dehydration Synthesis
Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are processes?
Yes, these are opposite processes

It would be a catabolic reaction or decomposition reaction.
What is the opposite of a synthesis?
It would be a catabolic reaction or decomposition reaction.
What is Opposite of a decomposition reaction?
Dehydration Synthesis
What is the opposite of research?

What is the opposite of a synthesis reaction?
It would be a catabolic reaction or decomposition reaction.
What reaction is opposite of a synthesis reaction?
It would be a catabolic reaction or decomposition reaction.
Is the process of building larger molecules by combining smaller molecules.?
It is called anabolism. The opposite process is termed catabolism.
