Enzymes
Large molecules are formed through a variety of chemical reactions, such as polymerization or condensation reactions. To break these molecules down, typically a hydrolysis reaction is needed, where water is used to break the bonds holding the large molecules together.
The special proteins that break large molecules of nutrients into smaller molecules are called enzymes. Enzymes are biological catalysts that facilitate biochemical reactions, such as the digestion of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. For example, amylase breaks down starch into sugars, proteases break down proteins into amino acids, and lipases break down fats into fatty acids and glycerol. These reactions are essential for nutrient absorption in the body.
Dunno i think they just somehow magically break down the large food molecules
well, enzymes are proteins that break up food molecules and digestion is when large protein molecules are broken down
No, photosynthesis does not break down large food molecules; instead, it is a process that converts light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis, plants use sunlight to transform carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. The glucose produced can then be used as a source of energy or as a building block for larger organic molecules, but the process itself is not about breaking down food molecules. Instead, it synthesizes them.
they break down larger molecules If a cell organisation is disturbed , lysosomes break down and digest.
When large molecules are broken down they actually turn into a different substance. Proteins break down into amino acids. Lipids break down into fatty acids. Carbohydrates break down into simple sugars. And those are just a few of them. Large molecules need to break down so that they can change into other substances so they can dissolve or help the body another way.

No, catabolic reactions break down large molecules into smaller ones, releasing energy in the process. Anabolic reactions, on the other hand, use energy to synthesize large molecules from smaller ones.
The Enzymes speed up the process in which orgaic molecules breakown. They help the molecules break down. Therefore speeding up the process. Thats the Low-down. Hope it helped :)

Enzymes are the special proteins that can break down large molecules into smaller molecules. These biological catalysts speed up chemical reactions in cells by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur.
Yes, enzyme pathways involve a series of enzyme-catalyzed reactions that either break down or build molecules. These pathways are essential for biochemical processes in living organisms and are tightly regulated to ensure proper function.
