Catabolism is breaking molecules down into smaller molecules (to get energy). You can remember this if you've ever had a cat -- they break things.
Anabolism is the opposite: building things up (to make useful stuff).
Now look up the definition of synthesis.

Anabolic reactions are reactions which build molecules up, catabolic reactions break them down. Since protein synthesis is a 'building' reaction it is anabolic.
The synthesis of a protein from amino acids is classified as an anabolic process. Anabolic processes involve building complex molecules from simpler ones, such as the formation of proteins from amino acids.
No, enzymes can also be involved in breakdown reactions. Enzymes can catalyze both synthesis (anabolic) and breakdown (catabolic) reactions in the body, depending on the specific enzymatic reaction and the needs of the cell or organism.
All of the decomposition reactions in an organism taken together is called catabolism, while the synthesis reactions are called anabolism.

The synthesis of a protein from amino acids is classified as an anabolic process. Anabolic processes involve building complex molecules from simpler ones, such as the formation of proteins from amino acids.
Anabolic reactions use energy to build complex molecules. These reactions include processes like protein synthesis and photosynthesis, where smaller molecules are combined to form larger, more complex molecules.
Cholesterol synthesis from acetyl CoA molecules
Anabolic reactions are chemical processes in living organisms that build larger molecules from smaller ones. These reactions require energy input and contribute to the synthesis of complex molecules like proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids. By combining smaller molecules, anabolic reactions help organisms grow, repair tissues, and store energy for future use.
The synthesis of complex molecules from simpler ones with the input of energy is called anabolic reactions. These reactions involve building up molecules and require energy input to form bonds between molecules.
Both catabolic and anabolic reactions require enzymes to catalyze the reactions. Enzymes help break down molecules in catabolic reactions to release energy, while they also assist in building up molecules in anabolic reactions to store energy.
Biochemical reactions in anabolic processes help build complex molecules by combining simpler molecules together. This synthesis is driven by enzymes that catalyze the reactions, allowing the formation of larger molecules like proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids essential for the growth and maintenance of living organisms.
