A
They frequently result in the production of gaseous products.
B
They typically occur at high temperatures.

Verified step by step guidance1
Begin by understanding the nature of organic chemistry reactions in biological systems. These reactions are often complex and involve the transformation of organic molecules.
Consider the environmental conditions within cells. Cellular reactions typically occur at moderate temperatures, not high temperatures, due to the delicate nature of biological systems.
Evaluate the type of bonds involved in cellular reactions. Organic reactions in cells usually involve covalent bonds rather than ionic bonds, as covalent bonds are more common in organic molecules.
Reflect on the role of enzymes in cellular reactions. Enzymes are biological catalysts that significantly increase the rate of reactions without being consumed in the process.
Conclude that enzymes are crucial for facilitating organic reactions in cells, allowing them to proceed at a significant rate under physiological conditions.
