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