Compare and contrast Catabolic an Ansbolic reactions


Catabolic reaction: the metabolic breakdown of complex
molecules into simpler one, often resulting in a release of energy.        

Anabolic reaction: anabolism, or biosynthesis, is the process by which living organism synthesize complex molecules of life from simpler ones.







Catabolic and Anabolic reactions are metabolic process. A Catabolic reaction reaction is one that breaks down large molecules to produce energy an example: is digestion. An Anabolic reaction is one that involves creating large molecules out of smaller molecules an example: is when your body makes fats out of an extra nutrients you eat.
