|---|---|
| reactions that release energy | exothermic |
| reactions that require energy | endothermic |
| substance that increases rate of a reaction that would otherwise be too slow | catalyst |
| biological catalyst | enzyme |
| enzymes can link reactions that release energy to reactions that require energy | coupled reactions |
| endothermic reactions (muscle contraction, biosynthesis etc.)can be accomplished as long as you have... | an exothermic reaction available |
