Answer 1

CATABOLISM:-

• It is a metabolic chemical process used for breakdown of complex molecules to simple small molecules.
• In this state body releases energy in different activities.
• Exp. glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, the breakdown of muscle protein in order to use amino acids as. etc..

ANABOLISM:-

• It is a metabolic chemical process used to build molecules required for the energy to do different activities by the body.
• Anabolism is in function during rest or sleep.
• Exp. gluconeogenesis etc..

HOPE IT HELP...

THANKU..

Answer 2

Catabolism

$\bigstar$ The destructive metabolic process in which complex molecules are broken down into simpler molecules is known as catabolism.

$\bigstar$ The metabolic process releases energy.

$\bigstar$ Hormones like adrenaline, glucagon, and cortisol involves in this process.

$\bigstar$ Catabolism helps in burning fats and calories.

Example : Cellular Respiration.

Anabolism

$\bigstar$ The constructive metabolic process in which complex molecules are formed from simpler molecules are known as anabolism.

$\bigstar$ The anabolic process requires energy.

$\bigstar$ Hormones like insulin, growth hormones , estrogen and testosterone involves in this process.

$\bigstar$ Anabolism helps in muscle growth.

Example : Photosynthesis
