Catabolic and Anabolic Reactions


Catabolic reaction releases energy that is used to drive chemical reactions, breaks macromolucules into constituent individual subunit.

*catalysed by the enzyme

*beta- lactosidase, enzyme which breaks down lactose into galactose and glucose

Anabolic reaction building up larger molecules from smaller ones.
