Chemical Reactions Week - A Preview Tribute

This week we'll be discussing life's chemical reactions. We'll also be discussing how enzymes work to speed up the chemical reactions iThe main reactions we will highlight are:
  1. Dehydration Synthesis and Hydrolysis - how biomolecules are formed and broken down
  2. Cellular Respiration - how life makes the energy it needs to live from the food we eats(or makes)
  3. Photosynthesis - how plants make food (that we can then use to make energy)
In addition to these chemical reactions we'll also be discussing how enzymes work to speed up the chemical reactions in living things. Yay! Enzymes!

In honor of Chemical Reactions Week...
