How do enzymes speed up chemical reactions

by acting as organic catalysts

Which term identifies a reaction that breaks apart macromolecules

Hydrolysis is the opposite to condensation. A large molecule is split into smaller sections by breaking
a bond, adding -H to one section and -OH to the other.
The products are simpler substances. Since it involves the addition of water, this explains why it
is called hydrolysis, meaning splitting by water.
A-B + H2O --> A-H + B-OH
