- Respiration
Respiration is the breakdown of large glucose molecules into simple molecules such as carbon dioxide and water with the simultaneous release of energy inside living cells. It is an enzyme mediated process. Main processes: Glycolysis (glucose to pyruvate,...
- #87 Respiration, Glycolysis
Respiration is the oxidation of energy-containing organic molecules. The energy released from this process is used to combine ADP with inorganic phosphate to make ATP. All cells obtain useable energy through respiration. Most cells use carbohydrate,...

Differences between Catabolism and Anabolism
Comparison between
Catabolism & Anabolism
| Anabolism | Catabolism |
| 1. It is a constructive process of metabolism | It is a destructive process of metabolism |
| 2. In anabolism, complex molecules (e.g. proteins) are synthesized from simple molecules (Amino acids) | In catabolism, complex molecules (e.g. Glycogen) are broken down into simple molecules (glucose) |
| 3. It is an energy (ATP) requiring process | It is an energy (ATP) releasing process |
| 4. It is a ?Up-hill? process | It is a ?Down-hill? process |
| 5. E.g. Protein synthesis, Glycogen synthesis, Photosynthesis | E.g. Glycogenolysis, Glycolysis, Digestion, cellular respiration |
