What is the difference between chemical reactions and metabolic pathways?
chem reaction: each of the individual steps
Metabolic pathway: the whole series of steps to get us from the big starting point to the big ending point
How are chem. reactions going to be driven? Why?
By an enzyme (which is a type of protein)
this is bc in a biological system, we can’t rely on this to happen by chance… we need the chem reaction to be controlled/directed so the cells can actually function. In these systems we have metabolic pathways. This is a series of chem reactions that are each
