Understand the definitions of each term: Metabolism is the sum of all chemical reactions in a cell, including both catabolic and anabolic pathways.
Catabolism refers to the breakdown of molecules to obtain energy, while anabolism is the synthesis of all compounds needed by the cells.
Glycolysis is a specific metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose into pyruvate, releasing energy and forming ATP.
Recognize that metabolism encompasses both catabolic and anabolic processes, as well as specific pathways like glycolysis.
Conclude that metabolism includes all other processes listed, as it is the overarching term for all cellular chemical reactions.
