Answer:

METABOLISM:

Metabolism refers to all of the chemical reactions that take place within an organism by which complex molecules are broken down to produce energy and by which energy is used to build up complex molecules. An example of a metabolic reaction is the one that takes place when a person eats a spoonful of sugar.

Examples of metabolism:

-self feeders like algae and green plants use the energy of sunlight to assemble inorganic precursors, chiefly carbon dioxide and water, into the array of organic macromolecules of which they are made. the process is photosynthesis.

-all other organisms, including human secure all our energy from organic molecules(food we eat). humans are heterotrophs, and are totally dependent on ingested preformed organic molecules to meet all the energy needs and also dependent on preformed organic molecules as the building blocks to meet the anabolic needs.
