Catabolic.
Catabolism
When large molecules are broken apart to yield smaller ones through hydrolysis reactions which require water
Anabolism
When small molecules are put together to build larger ones through metabolic condensation reactions (water is released)
Digestion
The processes by which food and its components are broken down chemically and mechanically into units that can be absorbed
catabolic.
catabolic and exergonic
Yes, hydrolysis reactions are catabolic reactions because they involve breaking down complex molecules into simpler molecules through the addition of water. This process releases energy that can be used by the cell for various metabolic activities.
it could be anabolic and catabolic
Catabolic: cellulose is broken down to carbon dioxide, water, and carbon monoxide. Exergonic: energy is released which can be used for work. Spontaneous: once the reaction is started, it will go to completion.
The reaction of breaking apart ATP and a phosphate to produce heat is an exergonic reaction. It releases energy in the form of heat. This process is spontaneous because it occurs without the need for an input of additional energy.
it is anabolic process
Forming a triacylglyceride from three fatty acids and glycerol is an anabolic reaction that is endergonic (requires energy input) and non-spontaneous under normal cellular conditions.
Reaction for respiration is a catabolic process. It is where organic compounds are broken into simpler substances through the transfer of electrons.
catabolic
Anabolic reactions are reactions which build molecules up, catabolic reactions break them down. Since protein synthesis is a 'building' reaction it is anabolic.
it is a catabolic reaction as it is breaking down from a large molecule to a smaller more complex one.
