When an energy-requiring reaction is driven by an energy-yielding reaction,it is called a/an
A)exergonic reaction.
B)endergonic reaction.
C)endo-exergonic reaction.
D)coupled reaction.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A reaction in which energy released by an exergonic reaction is used to drive an endergonic reaction is called a coupled reaction. This allows an energy-requiring reaction to occur by harnessing the energy yielded by another reaction.
