| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is Metabolism | network of chemical processes involved in maintaining life |
| Anabolic Pathway | uses small, simple compounds |
| Catabolic Pathway | breaks down compounds into smaller units |
| When are you in an anabolic state | growth, wound healing, pregnancy |
| When are you in a catabolic state | starvation |
