Process of metabolism
Anabolism. it is a process of synthesis.
- The body’s cells use the process of anabolism to create complex molecules from simple ones.
- Anabolism takes a lot of energy to happen. That energy is supplied by its other half called Catabolism.
Catabolism. it is the break down of large complex molecules in the body.
- Glycolysis. the process via which the body breaks down glucose and generates energy, and the hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which powers the muscles are two perfect examples of catabolism.
