Large molecules are formed through a variety of chemical reactions, such as polymerization or condensation reactions. To break these molecules down, typically a hydrolysis reaction is needed, where water is used to break the bonds holding the large molecules together.
Yes, a molecule is the smallest unit of a substance that retains all of the chemical properties of that substance. In a chemical reaction, molecules may rearrange or combine with other molecules, but they themselves are not broken down into smaller parts.
Chemical reactions occur when atoms combine to form molecules (synthesis reaction) or when molecules break down into atoms (decomposition reaction). These reactions involve the rearrangement of atoms to form new substances with different properties.
Enzymes are biological molecules that catalyze chemical reactions to break down food molecules into smaller components. These enzymes are produced in the digestive system and help to break down proteins, carbohydrates, and fats into smaller molecules that can be absorbed by the body.
Enzymes are biological molecules that help build up or break down large molecules. They catalyze chemical reactions by lowering the activation energy required for the reaction to occur, making the process more efficient. Each enzyme is specific to a particular substrate or type of molecule.

Fermentation is a metabolic by which sugars turn to acids, gases, or alcohol using yeast or bacteria. The sugar molecules break down, and the energy generated from that reaction enable the other molecules to bind to new molecules, which creates the acids, gases, or alcohols depending on what the surrounding molecules are.

Chemical reactions.
These are two forms of a chemical reaction. The first type is called synthesis and the other decomposition.
In cells, synthesis and decomposition reactions are coupled through metabolic pathways. Synthesis reactions build complex molecules by combining simpler ones, while decomposition reactions break down complex molecules into simpler components. These reactions are interconnected in metabolic pathways, where the products of one reaction serve as substrates for another, allowing cells to efficiently produce and break down molecules as needed.
One example is hydrolysis, where water is used to break the bonds between molecules. Another example is oxidation, where molecules lose electrons and break into smaller fragments. Both of these reactions result in the breakdown of larger molecules into smaller ones.
No .. this would be termed as electrolysis. Synthesis is another name for combination reactions
Glycolysis breaks down glucose into pyruvate molecules, producing ATP and NADH in the process.

they break down larger molecules If a cell organisation is disturbed , lysosomes break down and digest.
