Explanation:

A catabolic process is a process by which complex compounds are broken down into simpler components or molecules and releases energy. 

Whereas, the anabolic process creates complex molecules broken down in catabolism by utilizing energy and these molecules remain in the organism to be used again.

Photosynthesis is an anabolic process as it combines carbon dioxide and water in the presence of solar energy to form a complex substance called glucose in the leaves.

Respiration is a catabolic process as it breaks down complex molecules into simpler ones with release of energy in the form of ATP molecule.

Answer:

Catabolic Process:-

Catabolism is the set of biochemical reactions that break down complex molecules into simpler ones. Catabolic processes are thermodynamically favorable and spontaneous, so cells use them to generate energy or to fuel anabolism. Catabolism is exergonic, meaning it releases heat and works via hydrolysis and oxidation.

Cells can store useful raw materials in complex molecules, use catabolism to break them down, and recover the smaller molecules to build new products. For example, catabolism of proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and polysaccharides generates amino acids, fatty acids, nucleotides, and monosaccharides, respectively. Sometimes waste products are generated, including carbon dioxide, urea, ammonia, acetic acid, and lactic acid.

example:-During cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen react to yield carbon dioxide and water

During cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen react to yield carbon dioxide and waterC6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O

Anabolism Process:-

Anabolism or biosynthesis is the set of biochemical reactions that construct molecules from smaller components. Anabolic reactions are endergonic, meaning they require an input of energy to progress and are not spontaneous. Typically, anabolic and catabolic reactions are coupled, with catabolism providing the activation energy for anabolism. The hydrolysis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) powers many anabolic processes. In general, condensation and reduction reactions are the mechanisms behind anabolism.

example:- Glycerol reacts with fatty acids to make lipids:

Glycerol reacts with fatty acids to make lipids:CH2OHCH(OH)CH2OH + C17H35COOH → CH2OHCH(OH)CH2OOCC17H35

Photosynthesis:-

Photosynthesis is a process by which phototrophs convert light energy into chemical energy, which is later used to fuel cellular activities. The chemical energy is stored in the form of sugars, which are created from water and carbon dioxide.
