"Our bodies are in a dynamic balance between anabolism and catabolism." pg.970, Anatomy and Physiology text book
anabolism: energy requiring building phase, in which simpler substances are combined to form more complex ones.
catabolism: Energy requiring process when living cells break down substances into simpler ones.
I would say that our lives reflect this truth as well....break down, build up, break down, build up. What is true for the cell is true for the whole. I really do love what I am studying at the moment.
