Answer:
--> French fries are digested in the intestine, breaking them into smaller molecules.(Catabolic process)
--> A body builder exercises to build muscles through protein synthesis. (Anabolic process)
--> A child eats a milkshake, which provides her with energy (catabolic process).
Explanation:
CATABOLISM is the process by which living organisms break down large or complex molecules into smaller molecules with the release of energy for their own use. Foods that we consume contains different nutrients which includes carbohydrates, fats &oil, and protein. These nutrients are made available for our body cell use and maintenance through the process of catabolism. Through catabolic processes, these nutrients are broken down into its smaller constituents with the release of energy which is used immediately to power molecular machines that support cell, tissue, and organ function. The following are examples of a catabolic process as it involves breakdown:
--> French fries are digested in the intestine, breaking them into smaller molecules and
--> A child eats a milkshake, which provides her with energy
In contrast, anabolic process involves the building up larger molecules from smaller ones. It uses ATP molecules generated by catabolic reactions as a form of energy to create new molecules that form new cells and tissues, and revitalize organs. For example, muscles can be built from the synthesis of proteins. This is also called anabolic training.
