What type of chemical reaction is also known as an anabolic reation ?

Question

Hi, I am a first year student styding Mental Health

Answer 1

Anabolism is the metabolic process that builds larger molecules from smaller ones. One way of categorizing metabolic processes, whether at the cellular, organ or organism level is as anabolic or catabolic.

Anabolic processes tend toward "building up" organs and tissues. These processes produce growth and differentiation of cells and increase in body size, a process that involves synthesis of complex molecules. Examples of anabolic processes include growth and mineralization of bone and increase of muscle mass.

Catabolism is the metabolic process that breaks down molecules into smaller units. It is made up of degradative chemical reactions in the living cell. Large polymeric molecules (polysaccharides, nucleic acids and proteins) are processed into their constituent monomeric units (i.e. monosaccharides, nucleotides and amino acids, respectively).

Answer 2

A chemical reaction which produces a large molecule from smaller ones is called anabolic reaction for eg: the reaction of photosynthesis.

Answer 3

A reaction that builds something (hence anabolic steroids help build muscle). Catabolic reactions break things down.

Answer 4

Anabolism is a chemical upbuilding of complex substances by protoplasm

Answer 5

Yes. It's called Arnold Schwarzenegger!

Answer 6

Honey if you are a first year student you better get used to looking up your own answers!

Answer 7

It's supposedly defined as making larger molecules out of smaller ones.

Here's a couple I can think of, but I'm not guaranteeing they're correct.

oh + h --> h2o
hoh + co2 --> h2co3

Answer 8

Photosynthesis
syntheses of any macromolecules like glycogen,fat,protein etc...
