Anabolism is characterized as the assembly of large molecules from small molecules.
Anabolism is the set of chemical reactions of molecular synthesis of the organism considered. It is the opposite of catabolism, set of degradation reactions.
The reactions of the anabolism are reductions and are not spontaneous, they are endergonic reactions that is to say that they require a contribution in energy to take place. We can also talk about biosynthesis.
These reactions allow living organisms to synthesize essential metabolites from the basics provided by the diet and result in the building or renewal of tissues.
Examples: photosynthesis, protein biosynthesis.
