QuestionAnswer
condensation joining together of two or more smaller molecules to from a larger one, water is generated as a product. A-OH + H-B ->A-B + H2O ADP + Pi → ATP + H2O
hydrolysis water reacts with molecules, causing breakage of the bonds that link a molecule together. A-B + H2O ->A-OH + H-B Protein + H2O → Amino acids.
oxidation removal of electrons (or H) from any molecules; reaction of any molecule with oxygen. C6H12O6 + 6 O2 -> 6 CO2 + 6 H2O HA-BH → A-B + 2H
reduction addition of electrons (or H) to a molecule. Monounsaturated fatty acid + 2H → Saturated fatty acid. FAD + 2H → FADH2 A-B + 2H → HA-BH

What can affect reaction rates and how? a.Reactant and product concentration: an increase in the concentration of reactants relative to products will increase the net rate in the forward direction.
2.What can affect reaction rates and how? Conversely, an increase in the concentration of products relative to reactants will decrease the net forward rate. b.Temperature:
3.What can affect reaction rates and how? c.he height of the activation energy barrier: the rate of a reaction increases as the height of the barrier decreases.
