Endothermic reactions require energy input to occur. The energy needed is absorbed from the surroundings, resulting in a decrease in temperature during the reaction.

Exothremic Reactions
This is a very fast reaction.
Activation energy is the term used to describe the energy required to start a chemical reaction by breaking the initial bonds between atoms or molecules. This energy barrier must be overcome in order for the reaction to proceed.
The energy stored in the chemical bonds between atoms is potential chemical energy.

Anabolic reactions are chemical processes in the body that build molecules and require energy. Another term used to describe them is biosynthetic reactions.
Anabolic - Term describing enzyme-catalyzed reactions in a cell that involves the synthesis of complex molecules out of simpler subunits and which uses energy.(From Sparknotes)
Activation energy describes the energy that is required to get chemical reactions started.
Exothremic Reactions
Activation energy describes the energy that is required to get chemical reactions started.

Light reactions require light to fix photons into Redox molecules. These are temporary, and to fix this energy for long term storage, the plants use the 'dark reactions' such as the Calvin cycle. It is sort of a misnomer, because they don't HAVE to occur in the dark, just that they don't require light.
The term for this ratio is "efficiency". It is used to measure how well a device converts input energy into useful output energy.
METABOLISM. Metabolism is the sum of the group of reactions to obtain energy
