Question

For some months now, I have been having a behind the scenes correspondence with a regular viewer of UD, whom we shall call EP. He works with industrial robots, and has been fascinated by the way the ribosome works as a nano-scale automated machine cell. Accordingly, a process sequence diagram (‘map”) has been developed, based on accessible descriptions of the ribosome in action. The result is a fascinating look at the ribosome as industrial robot work-cell.

Answer 1

The reaction has two reactants with ions that seem to switch places.
The reaction has a single reactant that changes into two or more products.
The reaction involves oxygen reacting with a hydrocarbon and giving off heat.
