In chemistry, metathesis is used to describe reactions that interchange atoms or groups of atoms between molecules. When at least one atom undergoes a change in oxidation state, the reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction.
Biological energy is frequently stored and released by means of redox reactions. Photosynthesis involves the reduction of carbon dioxide into sugars and the oxidation of water into molecular oxygen. The reverse reaction, respiration, oxidizes sugars to produce carbon dioxide and water.here are simple redox processes, such as the oxidation of carbon to yield carbon dioxide (CO 2) or the reduction of carbon by hydrogen to yield methane (CH 4), and more complex processes such as the oxidation of glucose (C 6 H 12 O 6) in the human body through a series of complex electron transfer processes.
