The coronal plane divides the body into anterior (front) and posterior (back) sections.

Front

What is anabolism?

Back

Anabolism is the process of building up larger molecules from smaller ones, such as protein synthesis for muscle repair.

Front

What is catabolism?

Back

Catabolism is the process of breaking down larger molecules into smaller ones, such as the breakdown of glucose for energy.

Front

What are the components of ATP?

Back

ATP consists of three phosphates, ribose sugar, and adenine nitrogenous base. It does not contain deoxyribose sugar.

Front

What is the role of proteins in the body?

Back

Proteins play a crucial role in building and repairing tissues, as well as facilitating biochemical reactions as enzymes.

Front

What is the difference between anabolism and catabolism?

Back

Anabolism builds molecules and requires energy, while catabolism breaks down molecules and releases energy.

Front

What is the function of ribose in ATP?

Back

Ribose is a sugar that forms the backbone of ATP, linking the adenine base to the phosphate groups.

Front

What is the significance of the anterior-posterior division in anatomy?
