1. What is metabolism?
2. What are the two types of metabolism?
3. Which metabolic reaction requires an input of energy?
4. Which metabolic reaction releases energy?
5. Which reaction yields a more complex molecule and is reductive?
6. Which reaction yields a simpler molecule and is oxidative?
7. What are the products of catabolism? Which part of the cell does this pathway take place?
8. What are the products of anabolism? Which part of the cell does this pathway take place?
9. Which reaction is divergent? Why?

11. How can you relate waterfalls to a mole of glucose?
12. What are the steps in catabolism?
13. What is the common pathway of the degraded complex molecules?
Chemical pathways by which living things function, especially those that provide cellular energy, such as the transformation of energy from food into the energy of ATP. Metabolism also focuses on chemical pathways involving the synthesis of new biomolecules and the elimination of waste.
