Answer:

Anabolism:

  • Anabolism is the synthesis of large molecules from simple molecules.
  • It requires energy since it involves synthesis.
  • Also called endergonic process.

Catabolism:

  • Breakdown of large molecules to smaller ones.
  • It produces large amount of energy.
  • Also called energy yielding metabolism

Both processes are the types of metabolism.

Both are opposite to each other.
