Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The given reaction is favorable or not is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

A biochemical reaction refers to a chemical reaction in which one molecule is transformed into different molecules present inside the cell of the living beings. These reactions occur via the help of certain biological enzymes that can alter the rate of the chemical reaction. The term hydrolysis refers to a chemical reaction which takes place when water ruptures one or more chemical bonds. In case of biological hydrolysis, the cleavage of biomolecules takes place in such a way that the larger molecules get break down to smaller ones.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The given reaction using curved arrow symbolism is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

The term hydrolysis refers to a chemical reaction which takes place when water ruptures one or more chemical bonds. In case of biological hydrolysis, the cleavage of biomolecules takes place in such a way that the larger molecules get break down to smaller ones. The term coupled reactions refer to a pair of reactions that take place together. Although these reactions are represented in the form of two different chemical reactions, they are actually a single chemical reaction.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The given reaction can be used to synthesize ATP from ADP is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

The term coupled reactions refer to a pair of reactions that take place together. Although these reactions are represented in the form of two different chemical reactions, but they are actually a single chemical reaction.
