Question

question 23
anabolic reactions that involve ligasesand release water molecules when bonds are formed are called ______ reactions.
a condensation
b transfer
c reduction
d oxidation

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Condensation reactions are anabolic (building - up) reactions. In these reactions, ligases can be involved (for example, in the formation of certain bonds in biochemistry), and water molecules are released as a by - product when new bonds are formed. Transfer reactions involve the transfer of a functional group from one molecule to another. Reduction reactions involve the gain of electrons (or hydrogen in some biochemical contexts), and oxidation reactions involve the loss of electrons (or hydrogen).

Answer:

A. condensation
