Bonding:

• Covalent: When atoms share electrons
• Ionic: Opposite charges attract
• Hydrogen: In polar molecules the negative region of one molecule attracts to the positive region of another

Polymerisation:

• Linked to form polymers
• Monosaccharides to polysaccharides
• Peptides to polypeptides

• Joining of molecules, producing water

Hydrolysis:

• Breakdown of molecules using water

Metabolism:

• All the chemical processes that take place in living organisms
