Chemical reactions drive all of the activities within living cells.
The organelle responsible for controlling all chemical reactions within an animal cell is the nucleus. It houses the DNA, which contains the instructions for cellular activities, including the regulation of chemical reactions. The nucleus also controls the synthesis of proteins that are essential for carrying out these reactions.
Genetic Cell
To initiate a chemical reaction an activation energy is necessary.

The chemical reactions of the cell are called metabolism. Metabolism consists of two main types of reactions: catabolic reactions, which break down molecules to release energy, and anabolic reactions, which build molecules using energy. These reactions are essential for the cell to function and maintain life.
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the compound essential to all chemical reactions in a cell. ATP serves as the primary energy currency of the cell, providing the energy necessary for various cellular processes.
it controls all chemical reactions in the cells and contains chromosomes
Enzymes speed up chemical reactions in a cell. without enzymes, many chemical reactions that are neccassarry for life would either take to long or not occur at all.
The sum of all chemical reactions in a cell is known as metabolism. Metabolism consists of catabolic reactions (breakdown of molecules to release energy) and anabolic reactions (building of molecules using energy). Together, these reactions enable cells to grow, reproduce, maintain their structures, and respond to their environments.
All of chemical reactions in cells breakdown molecules and make molecules.
