Cell Theory
All living things are made up of cells. |
What an organism can do, depends on what its cells can do. |
Cellular composition determines what cells can do. |
All cells come from pre-existing cells. |
Anabolism
Build up or synthesize larger molecules from smaller ones. |
Requires energy. |
Provides biochemicals needed for growth and repair. |
Occur by dyhydration synthesis, removing a molecule of water to join two smaller molecules. |
