Are anabolic pathways spontaneous?

You would expect a catabolic reaction to be spontaneous because this type of reaction involves the release of energy. You would expect reactions that require energy (anabolic reactions) not to be spontaneous due to the need for an input of energy.


What are all reactions in the body called?

Generally in a body two type of reactions take place, catabolic and anabolic. Catabolic reactions are the type of reactions in which bio-molecules in our body split into their constituents to release energy; while anabolic reactions are those reactions in which new bio-molecules are synthesized in our Body. Together both reactions are known as METABOLISM.


What is the difference between catabolic and anabolic reaction?

catabolism,where energy is rich complex macromolecules are degrade into small molecules.Energy released during this process is trapped as chemical energy usually as ATP. Ananolism,(biosynthesis) the cell synthesise complex molecules from simpler precursors.this needs energy.


Why is cellular respiration anabolism?

Anabolism means to build up molecules from smaller, simpler substances in the body. Hence some bodybuilders take anabolic steroids to increase muscle mass. Cellular respiration is the breakdown of fuel molecules eg glucose, to release energy. Breakdown reactions are called catabolism (catabolic reactions). So respiration in cells is catabolic, not anabolic.


Is the Calvin cycle anabolic or catabolic?

Fermentation is usually used to refer to reactions which produce energy without using oxygen. These reactions involve the breakdown of food molecules eg glucose to release energy. Breakdown reactions are called catabolic reactions, so fermentation is catabolic and not anabolic.Fermentation process does not produce any energy molecules, its purpose is to recover NAD's that were used in the Glycolysis to use them again in the next Glycolysis process. All Fermentation processes are the subset of a Catabolic reactions, although, their product do not include the release of energy as the other catabolic reactions do.Also, Fermentation is an Anaerobic Respiration, which happens only in the cells that can not undergo the Aerobic Respiration.


what are the following processes releases energy to be used by a cell?

Chemical reactions that release energy are called exergonic. Cellular processes that release energy are called catabolic, or catabolism. {I remember this by thinking 'What does a cat do with its claws to your furniture - it breaks things down.' Also, anabolic steroids are for 'building up'.} The main energy producing catabolic reactions occur using Respiration that releases usable biochemical energy in the form of Atp.


How are polymers built and broken down?

The breaking down of some complex molecules, such as polymers, occurs through a process known as hydrolysis.Hydrolysis takes place in the presence of water containing an acid or a base as catalyst. The water causes polymers to breakdown to monomers. Hydrolysis reactions break bonds and release energy.


What kind of reactions release energy?

Exothermic reactions release energy.


How are anabolism and catabolism related?

Anabolic pathways store energy by building molecules. Catabolic pathways release energy by breaking down molecules. Analogies will vary but should show the relationship of products and reactants.


How do polymers affect humans?

Polymers can release reactants that are harmful to humans. Not only can they harm humans, but they can harm the environment as well.


What are the sustained release polymers?
