1. Section 2.4
Chemical Reactions

2. Chemical reactions change substances into different substances by breaking and forming bonds.

3. Chemical reactions are responsible for all the actions of organisms.
Examples
Photosynthesis
Respiration (breathing)
Digestion

4. Metabolism is all the chemical reactions in an organism

5. Oxygen+Sugars CO2 + Water (Reactants) (Products)
Reactants are changed in a reaction
EXAMPLE:
Products are formed in a reaction
Oxygen+Sugars CO2 + Water
(Reactants) (Products)

6. Activation Energy: energy required to start a reaction.

7. Exothermic Endothermic Two Types of Reactions Energy EXITS!
The prefix “exo-” means “out”
Example:
respiration
Energy goes IN!
The prefix “Endo” means “into”
Example:
- photosynthesis
