There are different types of metabolic pathways – some are anabolic and some are catabolic. Anabolic – this type of pathway requires energy and is used to build up large molecules from smaller ...

anabolic – this type of pathway requires energy and is used to build up large molecules from smaller ones (biosynthesis). catabolic – this type of pathway releases energy and is used to break ...

Anabolic pathways then build new molecules out of the products of catabolism, and these pathways typically use energy. The new molecules built via anabolic pathways (macromolecules) are useful for ...
