In each individual cell of a human there are many chemical reactions taking place, performing the necessary functions for being a large, complex, multicellular organism. Chemical reactions are catch-all phrase for the breaking and reforming of chemical bonds between molecules (substrate(s) of the reaction) which are transformed into different molecules (product(s) of the reaction). Chemical reactions can occur spontaneously (without added energy or intervention), and indeed some of the chemical reactions necessary for life processes can be spontaneous. But in the case of many processes in our body, these processes are actually many chemical reactions that occur in a specific order. For example, in order to get energy out of a molecule of glucose, a series of reactions must take place in order to break the bonds between the carbons of the glucose molecule. Plus, you have to rely on a series of...
