Answer:

Anabolism is the process of making larger molecules from smaller molecules, which requires energy. ... An example of anabolism is the process of combining many glucose molecules to create glycogen, which is used to fuel the body during strenuous workouts or periods when there is a lack of food.

Example-

of anabolic processes include the growth and mineralization of bone and increases in muscle mass.

✒ What is Anabolism?

  • Anabolism is the process by which the body utilizes the energy released by catabolism to synthesize complex molecules.
  • These complex molecules are then utilized to form cellular structures that are formed from small and simple precursors that act as building blocks.
  • These reactions require energy, known also as an endergonic process.
  • Anabolism is the building-up aspect of metabolism, whereas catabolism is the breaking-down aspect.
  • Anabolism is usually synonymous with biosynthesis.

✒ Examples of Anabolism

  • Formation of disaccharides and water with the help of combining simple sugars.
  • Formation of dipeptides by combining Amino acids.
  • Formation of lipids when glycerol reacts with fatty acids.
  • Process of photosynthesis to form glucose and oxygen.

✒ Examples of Anabolism Hormones :-

  • Insulin – It promotes absorption of glucose.
  • Anabolic steroids – It helps in stimulating muscle growth.
  • Anaerobic exercise – It helps in building muscle mass.

✒ Stages of anabolism :-

✏ There are three stages in anabolism.

  1. Production of precursors such as monosaccharides, nucleotides, amino acids, and isoprenoids.
  2. Activation of the above-mentioned precursors into reactive forms with the help of energy from ATP.
  3. Assemble the precursors to form complex molecules such as polysaccharides, nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids.
