What else can I help you with?
The process that releases chemical energy for use by the cell is called?
The process is called cellular respiration. It involves breaking down glucose molecules to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the energy currency of the cell.
The major enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of carbon dioxide is called?
The major enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of carbon dioxide is called ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO). RuBisCO is a key enzyme involved in the process of photosynthesis in plants and algae.
What is the name for the process by which plants make their own food?
The process by which plants make their own food is called photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, plants use sunlight to convert water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and glucose, which serves as their source of energy.
How does NADP convert into NADPH?
NADP converts into NADPH through a process called reduction, where it gains electrons and a hydrogen ion to become NADPH. This conversion is essential for carrying out various cellular processes, such as photosynthesis.
The process of adding oxygen or removing hydrogen from a molecule is called?
carbohydrates
What is the process of electron gain called?
The process of electron gain is called reduction. For example, if Br gains an electron, its oxidation number is reduced from 0 to -1, and will be written as Br-. The opposite of this (electron loss) would be called oxidation, or ionization.
Can oxidation be reversed in any way?
Yes, oxidation can be reversed through a process called reduction, where electrons are gained by the oxidized substance.
What is it called when chlorine becomes chloride?
When chlorine becomes chloride, the chlorine gains an electron to form an anion. This process is called oxidation. Oxidation always occurs with reduction (loss of an electron from another substance) in an oxidation reduction reaction.
What is this change in oxidation state called?
This change is called oxidation (increase of ox. state) or reduction (decrease)
Can oxidation or reduction takes place alone why or why not what are such reactions called answer in chemistry?
These reactions are called redox reactions.Isolated reduction/oxidation is not possible.
When an atom looses an electron what is called?
It would be a positive ion, which is called an anion. (pronounced an-ion)
What do you call a reaction where a substance has gained oxygen?
ok im not shore but i think its called reduction
The gain of electrons by an element is called what?
The loss of an electron is called oxidation. Its opposite is reduction.The loss of an electron increases the charge by +1.
The process of losing or gaining electrons is called what?
The process of losing or gaining electrons is called oxidation or reduction, respectively. Oxidation involves the loss of electrons, while reduction involves the gain of electrons. These two processes occur simultaneously in a redox reaction.
When a molecule gains oxygen or loses electrons its called?
When a molecule gains oxygen, it is called oxidation. When a molecule loses electrons, it is called reduction. Together, oxidation and reduction make up redox reactions.
The loss of electrons by a molecule atom or ion is called?
oxidation. Gaining electrons is called reduction.
The addition of an electron to an atom or molecule is called?
Reduction = addition of electrons. Generally negatively charged species is formed as a result
