Question

multiple choice question
catabolic reactions release energy. because of this, they can be classified as which of the following?
o exergonic
o endergonic
o metabolic
o anabolic

Explanation:

Exergonic reactions release energy. Catabolic reactions break down complex molecules into simpler ones and release energy, so they are exergonic. Endergonic reactions absorb energy. Metabolic is a general term for all chemical reactions in an organism. Anabolic reactions build complex molecules from simpler ones and consume energy.

Answer:

Exergonic
