Are the chemicals reactions in equilibrium within living cells?

Nah
Reactants capable of interacting to form products in a chemical reaction must fi
rst overcome a thermodynamic barrier known as the reaction's
Activation Energy
Catabolism is to anabolism as ________is to __________.
exergonic;endergonic
Catabolism is the opposite of anabolism. Catabolism involves the breaking down o
f food molecules into usable energy by the cell and anabolism involves USING the
energy to create polymers and macromolecules.
The only pairs coupled in the list you provided that share the same opposite rel
ationship is "exergonic" (energy-releasing reaction) and "endergonic" (energy-co
nsuming reaction).
Which of the following is a statement of the first law of thermodynamics?
Energy can't be created or destroyed
