• Photosynthesis is an example of Anabolism.

Catabolism -

• It is the total of the processes that takes place in breaking down.
• It converts complex substances to simple substances.
• It releases energy.
• The potential energy is converted into Kinetic.
• It helps in various activites of the body.
