Study Notes
### Anabolism
- Connects smaller molecules to create larger molecules.
- Requires energy
Catabolism
- Breaks down molecules
- Releases energy
Metabolism
- Refers to all the energy-requiring processes within a living organism
- Includes anabolism and catabolism
Anabolic Reactions
- Use energy to build, create, or assemble cellular components
Catabolic Reactions
- Do not require energy
- Break down food molecules, releasing energy for the cell to use.
