How to build a larger Bio-molecule
Dehydration Synthesis (also called Condensation Reaction)
joins monomers by “taking” H2O out one monomer donates OH–
other monomer donates H+ together these form H2O
requires energy & enzymes
enzymeThis is an example of an
Anabolic, endergonic
reaction.

How to break down a larger molecule
Hydrolysis (also called Digestion)
use H2O to breakdown polymers reverse of dehydration synthesis takes off one monomer at a time
H2O is split into H+ and OH–
H+ & OH– attach to ends
requires enzymes releases energy enzyme
This is an example of an
Catabolic, exergonic
reaction.

Some enzymes require other atoms or molecules in order to
function:
-Cofactors: inorganic ions, such as iron, copper, or zinc that bind to
enzymes in order to help break down specific substances.
-Coenzymes: organic molecules that are required by certain enzymes to
carry out catabolic reactions.
