Catabolism together with anabolism is a part of metabolism. It is the set of metabolic pathways in which the molecules are broken down into smaller units and the energy is released. Released energy of catabolism (in a form of ATP) is used for the maintenance and growth of cells. Examples of catabolic processes are glycolysis, the citric acid cycle or degradation of macromolecules: proteins into amino acids, lipids into free fatty acids...

The antiparallel arrangement within DNA molecules refers to Select one:

mylen [45]

Answer:

c. one helix strand that runs from the 5' to 3' direction and the other strand runs from the 3' to 5' direction.

Explanation:

A DNA molecule has two strands of nucleotides with a sugar phosphate backbone each, but orientated on the opposite direction allowing for the base pairs to complement one another, making it a more stable structure. When two biopolymers run parallel to each other but with opposite directionality (alignment) we have an antiparallel arrangement.

I annexed an image of the DNA structure.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
