Anabolism Definitions:

  1. Synthesis of complex molecules from simpler molecules with the input of energy and reducing power.

    Prescott's Microbiology 9th Edition by Joanne Willey, Linda Sherwood, Christopher J. Woolverton



  2. Metabolic reactions involved in the synthesis of macromolecules, usually requiring an input of energy.

    Essential Microbiology by Stuart Hogg



  3. Energy-consuming process of incorporating nutrients into protoplasm through biosynthesis.

Anabolism Notes:

Anabolism, also known as biosynthesis, is the biological synthesis of complex and larger molecules from simple and smaller ones through biochemical reactions. These kind of reactions are not spontaneous, require energy, therefore they are called endergonic reactions.
