Anabolism is the synthesis of complex molecules in living organisms from simpler ones together with the storage of energy.

Examples of anabolism: bone growth and mineralization, and muscle mass build-up.

Catabolism: the breakdown of complex molecules in living organisms to form simpler ones, together with the release of energy.

Examples of Catabolism: glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, the breakdown of muscle protein in order to use amino acids as substrates for gluconeogenesis, the breakdown of fat in adipose tissue to fatty acids, and oxidative deamination of neurotransmitters by monoamine oxidase.
