hydrolysis, sulfonation: -OH, -SH, -NH2 added or unmasked.
Oxidation - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔The combination of a substance with O2
Reduction - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔The act of reducing
Deamination - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔Bodily process in which amino groups are
removed from excess proteins. This happens most often in the liver, though
it also occurs in the kidneys.
Hydrolysis - 🧠 ANSWER ✔✔A chemical process in which a molecule of
water is added to a substance.
