There was Corinth, which was the richest commercial city of ancient Greece. Thebes is the birthplace of Hercules (whom the Greeks called Herakles), the legendary hero. There was also Sikyon, which was very influential in painting, sculpture, and drama.
An anabolic reaction is one that makes complex molecules from smaller one, examples of this being protein synthesis, photosynthesis etc.his is known as constructive metabolism. A catabolic reaction is one that breaks larger molecules into smaller ones with the release of energy. The most obvious example of this is respiration, as you are breaking a large molecule (glucose) into smaller molecules and releasing energy as you do it.
I would say that it is a catabolic process. Anabolism is the metabolic process that builds larger molecules from smaller ones. One way of categorizing metabolic processes, whether at the cellular, organ or organism level is as 'anabolic' or 'catabolic', which is the opposite.he process cannot be anabolic because the word glycolysis is derived from the greek words 'glycos' for sugar & 'lysis' for splitting. But the whole process of respiration is both catabolic as well as anabolic and hence called Amphibolic Pathway.
