Document Summary

Total of all chemical processes that occur in body: metabolism includes: Catabolism (energy-releasing process) where large molecules broken down to smaller molecules. Anabolism (energy-requiring process) where small molecules joined to form larger molecules. Two or more reactants chemically combine to form a new and larger product: chemical bonds made, energy stored in the bonds, responsible for growth, maintenance and repair, produce chemicals characteristic of life: carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. A large reactant is broken down to form smaller products: chemical bonds broken, energy released, energy in carbohydrates, lipids, proteins is used to produce energy which drives anabolic reactions, e. g. active cell membrane transport, muscle contraction, protein synthesis. Adp + pi + energy =atp: some energy released from breaking a chemical bond is not captured and stored as atp but is lost as heat, heat is used to maintain body temperature.
