Define anabolism.
Anabolism is the process of building up or biosynthesis of macromolecules from small molecular units into much larger complexes.

In order to convert proteins into amino acids which metabolic process would be active?
Catabolism would be active as proteins are made up of amino acids. Therefore, the process described (proteins into amino acids) is the breakdown, or catabolism, of protein.

Describe the energy transfer process relative to both ATP and ADP.
ATP has the energy (phosphate group) to donate while ADP can accept energy in the form of a phosphate group. Thus, ATP can be reduced (ATP ⟶ ADP + Pi) while ADP can be built into ATP (ADP + Pi ⟶ ATP).

From what source do chemotrophs acquire energy?
Chemotrophs acquire energy from preformed chemicals found in the environment.

An organism that derives its energy by removing electrons from elemental sulfur would be classified as a __________?
This phosphorylation process occurs in the mitochondria of chemotropic eukaryotes.
The catabolism of a single molecule of glucose goes through what 3 distinct transitions?
The breakdown of glucose goes through (1) Glycolysis, then (2) Fermentation or Respiration, and finally through (3) the electron transport chain (ETC).
