Answer 2

What do believe should be the correct option ?

Answer 3

catabolism and something my problem is I don't know what and I might be wrong

Answer 4

Catabolism stands for the metabolic reaction when a big molecule is broken into smaller derivatives. Anabolism stands for the converse i.e the metabolic reaction in which many smaller molecules are joined to form one big/large molecule.

Answer 5

On the basis of above knowledge, can you eliminate two options ?

Answer 6

are u there ?

Answer 7

I don't know what to eliminate

Answer 8

It will be anabolic since smaller glucose molecules are linked together to form larger cellulose molecule. Also it's endergonic since this process consumes energy.
