catabolism is

• Metabolism involving the synthesis of biopolymers

• Metabolism involving the degradation of biopolymers

anabolism is

• Metabolism involving the synthesis of biopolymers

• Metabolism involving the degradation of biopolymers

Intermediate metabolism: synthesis of biological compounds occurs in a series of organized steps, with several well defined intermediates, also called ----------. The sum of all steps in the synthesis or breakdown of a product referred to as a metabolic pathway

• anabolites

• catabolites

• metabolites

• chocolate bites

Types of metabolic pathways

• linear

• branched, converging

• branched,diverging

• cyclic

• spiral

Which of the following is not a product of catabolism?

• NADH

• NADPH

• FADH2

• ATP

What is the role of NAD+, NADP+, and FAD in anabolism?

• They are reduced cofactors

• They are oxidized cofactors

• They are neutral cofactors

• They are basic cofactors

NADH, NADPH, FADH2 are (more than one answer)

• reduced co-factors

• proton holders

• oxidized cofactors

• electron holders

catabolism can be the ---------- of pathways; mwhile anabolism can be the ---------- of pathways

• convergence, divergence

• divergence, convergence

anabolism doe snot require ATP

• true

• false
