Question

In which process do some macromolecules get assembled from smaller components and other macromolecules get degraded to yield energy?

Answer 1

Digestion including hydrolysis

Step-by-step explanation:

In the process of digestion, bigger food molecules are broken down into smaller macro molecules. These macro-molecules in later stage are absorbed or accumulated by cell and further broken down to release energy. It is during the process of hydrolysis,

Where big macro-molecules are broken into smaller polymers and further into monomers thereby releasing energy. This chemical process is assisted by an enzyme in the presence of water molecules.
