  Anatomy
• reactions are building reactions, and the consume energy


  Anabolic

  anabolism
• Reactions break materials down and release energy

  Catabolic
• Release energy

  Catabolism
• Complex molecules are broken down to simpler ones and energy is released. Break materials down and release energy.

  Catabolic reaction
• Energy-requiring metabolic reactions. They are building reactions, and they consume energy.
