METABOLISM

Catabolism

Decarboxylation

Oxidation

Hydrolysis

Hydrolysis

A chemical reaction
in which water breaks
one or more chemical
bonds.

The addition of
electrons

The removal of
carbon dioxide from
organic acids

Anabolism

Phosphorylation

Reduction

Phosphorylation

Dehydration Synthesis

The synthesis of the
loss of water

Reduction of electrons

Protein getting phosphate
molecules transferred to it

Phosphate and carboxyl groups
both can have an added or
removed molecule. Phosphorylation
acts upon the phosphate groups and
Decarboxylation acts upon the carboxyl
groups.

The both have the power to remove
or add electrons.

Both have couple reactions
occur during the cycle.

Both include either loss
of water or water breaking
things down.
