24
Q

the processes by which cells synthesize biomolecules and generate energy

25
energy-yielding metabolism. The process of breaking down larger molecules to extract energy and create reaction substrates
Catabolism
26
biosynthetic metabolism, the process of synthesizing larger molecules for maintenance and new cell generation
Anabolism
27
waste products from the cell
Metabolites
28
utilizable energy that is used in anabolism

Levels/Class of Cellular Reactions
Class I or Fueling Reactions: the nutrients are absorbed and some of the wastes are removed. Class II or Biosynthesis Reactions: formed higher or more complicated molecules. Class III or Polymerization Reactions: biopolymers are formed from monomer units from the Class II.
