Metabolism
1 Catabolism : breakdown of substances
2 Synthesis or anabolism : formation of new product
3 Energy transfer from one substance to another
Chemical Equilibrium
1 Metabolic process proceed in the direction of chemical equilibrium.
2 In chemical equilibrium, the concentration difference between the reactant and the product determines the direction of the reaction.
ATP
1 This is the source of activation energy for metropolitan reaction
2 This is converted to ADP(adenosine diphosphate) and phosphoric acid.
