The cellulose is hydrolyzed to glucose Free energy is lost as heat.

In enzymatic hydrolysis, cellulose chains are broken down into glucose molecules by cellulose enzymes in a process similar to the conversion of grass and feed cellulose to sugars in the stomach of a cow. Xylanase and hemicellulose enzymes can convert many cellulosic agricultural residues into fermentable sugars.

When carbohydrates are broken down into their constituent sugar molecules by hydrolysis this is called glycation. Hydrolysis reactions can be the reverse of condensation reactions, where two molecules combine to form a larger molecule and expel a water molecule. Acid hydrolysis of cellulose is the classical method of breaking down cellulose to glucose and can be performed with either dilute or concentrated acid.

Why are enzymes important for our bodies
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

Because enzymes have many functions as chemical catalysts in numerous chemical reactions (for example in metabolism). By lowering the activation energy, they make it much easier to carry out reactions. They are also indispensable for signal transduction and cell regulation, often via kinases and phosphatases. They also generate movement, with myosin hydrolyzing ATP to generate muscle contraction, and also transport cargo around the cell as part of the cytoskeleton. Other ATPases in the cell membrane are ion pumps involved in active transport.

Salmonberry leaf cells contain 14 chromosomes. How many chromosomes will a new leaf cell contain after mitosis ?
