I believe you may be talking about histimines. They are the body's reaction to foreign things. They are what cause the swelling, sneezing and generally bad effects.

What is the definition of condensation synthesis?

Condensation synthesis is a chemical reaction in which two molecules combine by the removal of a small molecule, typically water. This process forms a larger molecule through the bonding of the two smaller molecules. It is commonly seen in the formation of biological polymers like proteins and nucleic acids.


Is a neutralization reaction the same as a condensation reaction?

No, a neutralization reaction is not the same as a condensation reaction. A neutralization reaction typically involves an acid reacting with a base to produce water and a salt, while a condensation reaction involves the joining of two molecules with the elimination of a small molecule, often water. These reactions serve different purposes and occur under different conditions in chemistry.


What molecule is created when polymers are made?

When polymers are formed, small molecules called monomers undergo a chemical reaction, typically polymerization, to create long chains of repeating units. During this process, water molecules may be released in a reaction known as condensation polymerization. In addition to water, other small molecules can also be produced, depending on the specific reaction conditions and types of monomers involved. Overall, the primary outcome is the formation of a larger polymer molecule from its constituent monomers.


Why is catalyst effective in small amounts?

Catalysts are effective in small amounts because they facilitate chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur, allowing reactants to convert to products more easily. They are not consumed in the reaction, meaning a single catalyst molecule can participate in multiple reaction cycles. This efficiency allows a small quantity of catalyst to influence a large number of reactant molecules, enhancing the overall reaction rate without the need for large amounts of the catalyst itself.


What is a small molecule that specifically binds to another molecule?

Caffeine is a small molecule that can bind to adenosine receptors in the brain, preventing adenosine from binding and causing alertness.

How does a condensation reaction get its names?

A condensation reaction is one in which two or more molecules combine into a larger molecule often with the loss of a small molecule, such as water.


What does A condensation reaction typically produces?

A condensation reaction typically produces a larger molecule by combining two smaller molecules and eliminating a small molecule like water. It is a reaction where two molecules react to form a larger molecule with the loss of a small byproduct such as water, alcohol, or ammonia.

Can a person who is allergic to bee stings eat honey?

Yes, a person who is allergic to bee stings can typically eat honey without any issues. This is because the allergens in bee venom that cause the allergic reaction are not present in honey. However, there is a small chance of a cross-reaction in rare cases, so it's best to consult with a healthcare provider if there are concerns.
