The series of reactions that involve pigments is called light reaction. It is defined as the reaction of something, especially the iris of the eye, to different intensities of light.
Such reactions are called Exothermic reactions. Their change in enthalpy is negative. Such reactions are favorable at low temperature.
Calvin Cycle
This branch of chemistry is called electrochemistry.
Metabolic pathways. These pathways involve a series of interconnected chemical reactions that convert molecules into energy or create necessary building blocks for the organism. Each step is catalyzed by specific enzymes to maintain a balance of energy and essential molecules in the organism.
Nuclear Fusion. This process involves 'fusing' together two smaller nuclei to form a bigger nucleus.
While many reactions involve oxygen, only combustion reactions require oxygen as a reactant.
Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.
Reactions that involve nuclei, called nuclear reactions, result in a tremendous amount of energy. Two types are fission and fusion.
A negative ion is called an anion, while a positive ion is called a cation.
An enzyme is a specific kind of protein that catalyzes reactions by lowering the activation energy needed for the reaction to occur.
Energy yielding reactions are called catabolic reactions. These reactions involve breaking down complex molecules into simpler ones, releasing energy in the process. Common examples include glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.
