Chapter 23, Problem 17RQ

What is the general outcome of anabolism?

To determine

The general outcome of anabolism.

Answer to Problem 17RQ

The general outcome of anabolism is carbohydrates ,lipids,protein,nucleic acid.

Explanation of Solution

Anabolism is a process in which the energy is used to produce larger biomolecules from smaller molecules.The process in which larger molecules like lipids protein nucleic acid are produced is anabolism. The energy obtained in the form of ATP –the higher energy molecule obtained while catabolic process- is used up to produce all larger biomolecules. Which are the product obtain by this process helps to build muscles in the body. The product obtain from the anabolism is same as what we have intake in the form of food that are protein, carbohydrates.If we have taken carbohydrates the molecule produce after anabolism are molecules which helps to build muscles strength. It is directly opposite process then catabolism.

Conclusion:

Therefore, The general outcome of anabolism is carbohydrates,lipids,protein,nucleic acid.
