Anabolism
Definition
A fundamental phase of metabolism, characterized by the totality of biochemical processes of assimilation and biosynthesis through which the organism transforms simple nutrients from the environment into complex macromolecular compounds (proteins, nucleic acids, glycogen, and tissues). This cellular structural phenomenon requires a direct consumption of chemical energy, supplied by the breakdown of ATP molecules.
