No. I have been taught the terms endothermic and exothermic but i think it is the same thing. if you think of bonds as energy then a catabolic reaction, which is just the breaking of bonds, gives off heat energy making it exothermic. I think i got that right butdon't quote me :P hope this helps

OK Ive just looked up endogonic and im not rewriting my answer but they are pretty much the same just thermic is heat and gonic is energy

Are endergonic reactions catabolic processes?

No, endergonic reactions are not catabolic processes. Endergonic reactions require energy input to proceed, while catabolic processes involve the breakdown of molecules to release energy.


Are catabolic pathways endergonic processes?

No, catabolic pathways are exergonic processes.


Is the process of cellular respiration endergonic, catabolic, or anabolic?

Cellular respiration is a catabolic process.


Is the process that is catabolic endergonic?

No, catabolic processes are typically exergonic, meaning they release energy.


Is the process endergonic, anabolic, or catabolic?

Is a catabolic reaction endergonic or exergonic?

A catabolic reaction is typically exergonic, meaning it releases energy.


Forming a triacylglyceride from three fatty acids and glycerol...identify this reaction as either anabolic or catabolic endergonic or exergonic and spontaneous or non spontaneous.?

Forming a triacylglyceride from three fatty acids and glycerol is an anabolic reaction that is endergonic (requires energy input) and non-spontaneous under normal cellular conditions.


Is protein synthesis is a catabolic reaction?

No, protein synthesis is an anabolic reaction, as it involves the creation of new proteins within a cell. Catabolic reactions, on the other hand, involve the breakdown of complex molecules into simpler ones to release energy.


Burning paper identify as either anabolic or catabolic endergonic or exergonic and spontaneous or non spontaneous?

Catabolic: cellulose is broken down to carbon dioxide, water, and carbon monoxide. Exergonic: energy is released which can be used for work. Spontaneous: once the reaction is started, it will go to completion.


Is making ATP endergonic or exergonic?

making ATP is endergonic. This is because after ATP hydrolysis to form ADP + P, we now are at a lower energy state and for ATP to be formed again it has to be fueled by catabolic pathways, eg respiration. this energy input allows ATP to be formed and thus we see that phosphorylation of ADP requires energy input (endergonic) to form ATP. Converting ATP into ADP and P itself is EXERGONIC.


Does a catabolic reaction absorb or require energy?

A reaction is endergonic when it requires a net input of energy; if the products contain more energy than the reactants. So, no an endergonic reaction takes in energy. An exergonic reaction releases energy. In an exergonic reaction, the reactants contain more energy than the products.


Is anabolism an endergonic or exergonic process?

Anabolism is an endergonic process.
