Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The sum total of all the chemical reactions that occur in the body is called metabolism. These include anabolic as well as catabolic reactions. Anabolic reactions are synthesis reactions while catabolic reactions are breakdown reactions. To get a measure of metabolism, we perform calorimetry. Calorimetry is the measurement of changes in the state variables of the body.
