Both Glycogenesis and Gluconeogenesis are Examples of Catabolic Reactions

Question

Both glycogenesis and gluconeogenesis are examples of catabolic reactions.

Accepted Answer

Glycogenesis is the anabolic process of forming glycogen from glucose, while gluconeogenesis is the anabolic process of forming glucose from non-carbohydrate sources. Both processes are opposite to catabolic reactions, which break down complex molecules into simpler ones.
