Metabolism explains how the cells in the body use nutrients to meet its needs. cells may start with small, simple compounds and use them as building blocks to form larger, more complex structures (anabolism). these anabolic reactions involve doing work and so require energy. alternatively, cells may break down large compounds into smaller ones (catabolism). catabolic reactions usually release energy. determine whether the following reactions are anabolic or catabolic.
1. oxidation reaction
2. muscle tissue breakdown -> release of amino acids
3. adipose tissue formed from fatty acids
4. a-oh + h-b -> ab + hoh
5. ab + hoh -> a-oh + h-b
6. beta oxidation of fatty acids
7. gluconeogenesis
8. nadh+h2 -> nad+

Subduction zones form when an oceanic plate collides with another oceanic plate or continental plate. the continental crust is lighter and less dense than oceanic crust. continental crust's density is approximately 2.7 grams per cubic centimeter. oceanic crust is thinner and the average density is about 3.3 cubic centimeters. when the two crustal plates converge the oceanic plate always bends and subducts beneath a continental plate. once the oceanic crust subjects, the rocks are subjected to changes in heat and pressure. because of this, we would expect to find rocks in the area of a subduction. a) clastic b) igneous c) metamorphic d) sedimentary
