Question

An example of anabolism is A. breakdown of starch or glycogen to glucose. B. DNA replication. C. oxidation of fats to carbon dioxide and water. D. NONE of A-D are examples of anabolism E. glucose oxidation to pyruvate.

Answer 1

Answer: Option B) DNA replication.

Step-by-step explanation:

Anabolism is a constructive process in which complex molecules are synthesized from simpler ones, and it consumes rather than produce cellular energy.

So since DNA replication involves the synthesis of newly synthesized strands that contains nucleotides complimentary to the free nucleotides present in the splitted parent strand; DNA replication is described as an example of anabolism.
