Breaking down of macromolecules into small particles is called a catabolic process. In any catabolic process there is a release of energy. Anabolic reaction combines small particles into a macro molecule and energy is conserved in such a process.
Chemical Change
chemical digestion
Chemical reactions are described based on observations. It may be in terms of changes in color, state of matter, or density.
Biochemistry is the study of a chemical process in living things. Biochemists study microorganisms like proteins and carbohydrates. The process is how they do it, by aid of microscopes, hypothesis and experimentation.
(noun)The act or process of inhaling and exhaling; breathing. Also called ventilationThe act or process by which an organism without lungs, such as a fish or plant, exchanges gases with its environment.The oxidative process occurring within living cells by which the chemical energy of organic molecules is released in a series of metabolic steps involving the consumption of oxygen and the liberation of carbon dioxide and water.Any of various analogous metabolic processes by which certain organisms, such as fungi and anaerobic bacteria, obtain energy from organic molecules.
Answer metabolism
The chemical process by which molecules are broken down into their smaller components is called catabolism.
This process is called hydrolysis.
Compounds (molecules consisting of two or more different chemical elements) can only b separated by chemical reactions.

An organism builds organic molecules through the process of anabolism. It is a type of metabolism that synthesizes complex molecules from simpler ones.
Hydrolysis and other chemical reactions are used during the process of digestion to break large molecules down into their smaller components. Hydrolytic reactions are exergonic reactions.
Metabolism is the set of all chemical process that take place in the body. The processes allow all life sustaining functions needed in the cells of living organisms.
When two molecules react within a cell, their atoms are rearranged. This releases or consumes energy.
Metabolism is the total amount of chemical processes that occur in living organisms. The process causes growth, energy and eliminate waste.
The fungi are breaking down the wood of the dead trees to use their chemical products in building its own structure. This process involves chemical reactions by the fungi, which are all forms of chemical decomposition : the formation of smaller molecules from larger molecules.
chemical reactions that synthesizes molecules from smaller components, usually requiring energy in the process. The anabolic process uses monomers to build polymers such as Amino acids (monomers).
