Metabolism Overview and Classification Quiz

Catabolism involves the TCA cycle, while anabolism involves hydrolysis reactions.

Catabolism involves breaking down complex molecules, while anabolism involves building complex molecules. (correct)

Catabolism requires energy, while anabolism releases energy.

Catabolism is a divergent process, while anabolism is a convergent process.

Catabolism is a divergent process transforming common end products into various complex molecules.

Catabolism involves the degradation of energy-rich fuel molecules to capture chemical energy in the form of ATP. (correct)

Catabolism is known for the synthesis of complex end products from simple precursors.

Catabolic reactions are oxidative in nature using NAPDH as an electron donor.
