Dehydration synthesis and hydrolysis

Catabolism

Hydrolysis: Breaking down a larger molecule by adding a water molecule.

Hydrolysis: breaking down of a larger molecule by adding a water molecule.

Phosphorylation: addition of a phosphate group to a molecule to break it down into smaller components.

Gain of oxygen

Molecule gaining or losing hydrogen or oxygen.

Addition or removal of a group.

Opposite reactions, reversable.

Anabolism

Dehydration synthesis: removal of a water molecule to create a bond between two separate molecules.

Phosphorylation: removal of a water molecule to create a larger molecule in cases where a phosphate ion is present.

Decarboxylation: removal of a carboxyl group to form a larger compound.

Loss of oxygen

Oxidation and reduction

Phosphorylation and decarboxylation

Phosphorylation and hydrolysis

Coupled reactions, opposites of each other.
