Study Notes
Metabolism
- Metabolism includes all chemical reactions within a cell, comprising two main processes.
- Anabolism: chemical reactions that build up cell structures and constituents, requiring energy.
- Catabolism: chemical reactions that break down macromolecules into smaller ones, producing energy.
Energy Production in Microorganisms
- Energy in microorganisms is produced in the form of ATP through three ways, dependent on the type of electron acceptor.
