Explanation / Answer

Catabolic pathways are those that generate energy by breaking down larger molecules into small ones. In the catabolic pathway the energy is stored for later use or released as heat. Two parts of catabolic pathways are cellular respiration and fermentation. Anabolic pathways are the processes that require energy to synthesize larger molecules from smaller molecules. Both types of pathways are required for maintaining the cells energy balance. In eukaryotes the common catabolic pathway can take place.
