Title: What is the difference between catabolism and anabolism.? Post by: FISH0818 on Sep 25, 2012 Catabolism is the metabolic process that breaks down large molecules into smaller ones, usually with the help of water. For example, your body break down sucrose, which is table sugar (C12H22O11) into simpler sugar, glucose (C6H12O6):
C12H22O11 + H2O = C6H12O6 + C6H12O6 Anabolism is the opposite, buildup of larger molecules from smaller ones. C6H12O6 + C6H12O6 = C12H22O11 + H2O Title: What is the difference between catabolism and anabolism.? Post by: midkidd on Sep 25, 2012 Content hidden
