The answer is a ‘series of steps in which enzymes work one
at a time to convert a compound to a related compound’. The intermediate products of metabolic pathways are called metabolites. An example of a metabolic cycle is the Glycolysis and Krebs cycles. The product in each step of the
metabolic pathways becomes the substrate
of the next step in the pathway. There are two types of metabolic pathways;
anabolic and catabolic
<span>Compare: both RNA and DNA have 3 nitrogenous bases: Adenine Cytosine and Guanine. Also b</span>oth have a phosphate groups in their nucleotides<span>
Contrast: </span>RNA is a polymer with a ribose AND a phosphate backbone. It has four different nitrogenous bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine, and uracil.
DNA<span> is a long polymer with deoxyriboses AND phosphate backbone. It also has four </span>different<span> nitrogenous bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine.

Just like the bacteria, the archaea have evolved a diverse array of metabolic pathways. As extremophiles, their metabolism shows many adaptations to the extreme environments of their habitat. There are facultative and obligate anaerobes and aerobic organisms in this kingdom.
