Answer :

  • All the living organisms are made of small or big chemicals.
  • The chemicals are constantly being synthesized and transformed into other biomolecules through a set of different chemical reactions which are called as Metabolic reactions.
  • In short, Metabolism is the sun total of all the chemical reactions occuring in an organism.
  • It is said to be the defining property of a living organism.
  • There are two types of metabolism : Anabolism and Catabolism.
  • Anabolism is a synthesis reaction. For ex : Photosynthesis.
  • Catabolism is a break down reaction. For ex : Respiration.
