<u>Answer</u>:

The term most correctly explains the cellular process of breaking the large molecules into smaller ones is catabolism

<u>Explanation</u>:

Catabolism is the part of the metabolism that is responsible for breaking the complex molecules into the smaller molecules. The another part of  metabolism is anabolism that builds the simple molecules into the more complex ones.

During the catabolism energy is released from the bonds of the large molecules being broken down. Typically, that energy is further stores in the bonds of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The catabolism increases the concentration of ATP in the cell as it breaks down the nutrients and food.

kirza4 [7]
The answers would be 24 and fertilises. 

Pollen is the male gamete of lily, which is a haploid cell, with only half the chromosomes of the normal diploid ones. Therefore, if the haploid gamete has 12 chromosomes, so the diploid would be 12+12 which makes 24. 

The egg is also a gamete of lily, but it's a female gamete. It is also a haploid cell, with only 12 chromosomes which is given in the question. So, when the sperm fuses and fertilises the egg, the zygote would have 24 chromosomes which is formed by 2 haploid gametes.
