    Metabolism comprises all chemical reactions within cells and their vicinity, including cellular processes like locomotion, cell division, and reproduction. Broadly, metabolic reactions are divided into catabolism and anabolism. Catabolism involves degradative and exothermic reactions that break down complex molecules into simpler forms, acquiring free energy. Anabolism consists of biosynthetic reactions that use this energy to synthesize complex biomolecules from simpler precursors.

    Metabolism comprises all chemical reaction taking place within
    the cells and it's vicinity. It also involves various cellular
    processes such as locomotion, salute update, cell division and
    reproduction etc.

    These are bio synthetic reactions.
    In these reactions complex biomolecules are synthesized from
    there simple precursors.
    These are endothermic or endergonic reaction.
    the energy acquired during catabolism is consumed during
    analysis.
