Lesson: Metabolism Biology

In this lesson, we will learn how to define the terms metabolism, anabolism, and catabolism and describe examples of anabolic and catabolic reactions.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

recall that metabolism is the process by which the body utilizes absorbed food,
define the terms anabolism and catabolism,
state that anabolic reactions make large compounds from multiple smaller ones and catabolic reactions break down large compounds into smaller ones.
