Substrates
Reactants. "Substrate" is another possibility.
The reactants of enzyme-catalyzed reactions are known as substrates. Substrates bind to the active site of an enzyme, where the reaction takes place. Enzymes help lower the activation energy required for the reaction to occur.
Metabolic pathways. These pathways involve a series of enzyme-catalyzed reactions that help regulate the flow of energy and molecules within a cell. Each step in a metabolic pathway is carefully controlled to ensure proper functioning and homeostasis in the cell.
The dark reaction, also known as the Calvin Cycle, occurs in the stroma of the chloroplasts. This process uses ATP and NADPH generated from the light-dependent reactions to convert carbon dioxide into glucose through a series of enzyme-catalyzed reactions.
The reactions in which the products do not recombine to form reactants are called irreversible reactions. They are supposed to complete and are represented by putting a single arrow (-------->) between the reactants and products.

The substrate is the molecule affected by the enzyme.

The splitting of water and oxygen happens in the chloroplasts of plant cells during the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis. This process, known as photolysis, is catalyzed by the enzyme complex photosystem II.
The dark reaction, also known as the Calvin Cycle, occurs in the stroma of the chloroplasts. This process uses ATP and NADPH generated from the light-dependent reactions to convert carbon dioxide into glucose through a series of enzyme-catalyzed reactions.
Dark reactions, also known as the Calvin cycle, take place in the stroma of chloroplasts in plant cells. These reactions use the products of the light-dependent reactions to convert carbon dioxide into glucose through a series of enzyme-catalyzed steps.
Enzymes act upon specific molecules called substrates. Each enzyme has a unique shape that allows it to bind to a specific substrate, facilitating a chemical reaction to occur. This specific binding of enzyme to substrate is key to the enzyme's ability to catalyze reactions in living organisms.
Oxidation-reduction reactions are catalyzed by enzymes known as oxidoreductases. These enzymes facilitate the transfer of electrons between molecules, leading to an oxidation or reduction reaction. Common examples include dehydrogenases, reductases, and oxidases.
During the second stage of photosynthesis, known as the light-independent reactions or the Calvin cycle, carbon dioxide is converted into glucose using the energy stored during the light-dependent reactions. This process takes place in the stroma of the chloroplast and involves a series of enzyme-catalyzed reactions that ultimately produce glucose, which is a form of stored energy for the plant.
