2. In anabolism, complex molecules (e.g. proteins) are synthesized from uncomplicated molecules (Amino acids) | In catabolism, complex molecules (e.g. Glycogen) are broken downwards into uncomplicated molecules (glucose) |
3. It is an liberate energy (ATP) requiring process | It is an liberate energy (ATP) releasing process |
4. It is a “Up-hill” process | It is a “Down-hill” process |
5. E.g. Protein synthesis, Glycogen synthesis, Photosynthesis | E.g. Glycogenolysis, Glycolysis, Digestion, cellular respiration |
