Anabolic role of Glycolysis

Image
Anabolic role of Glycolysis Glycolysis  is a catabolic process, because in this process breakdown of glucose(6-C)  into two pyruvic acids(each of 3-C)  and release of energy takes place.  But there are some intermediates that take part in the process of Anabolism. First we should know the difference between Anabolism and catabolism: Catabolism Anabolism 1.        In catabolism the breakdown of complex molecules into simple molecules takes place. 2.        In catabolism the Bonds breakage takes place. 3.        In catabolism the Energy is released due to bond breakage. 1.        In Anabolism the formation of complex molecules by the combination of simple molecules takes place. 2.        The Bonds are formed in Anabolism. 3.        The Energy is consumed in anabolism for bond formation. How Glycolysis also perform Anabolic role?   Some intermediates are formed  during the pocess of Glycolysis. Which la
