OKAY - Amphibolic pathway is a metabolic pathway used in both catabolism and anabolism. TCA cycle, for example, acts as an amphibolic pathway since it is involved in both breakdown as well as synthesis of biomolecules. The only other thing that comes to mind is that they are better regulated via positive and negative feedback mechanisms because the product of one reaction serves as the determinant of the opposite reaction. Not sure Confounded Face Hope someone else can chime in.
Biology - The only science where multiplication and division mean the same thing.
