What is the purpose of a catalyst
It Alters (will accept change) the speed of the reaction. (this means it can speed it up with heat or slow it down with cold).

Metabolism can be split into 2 categories, what are they?
Hint: One takes energy and simple building blocks to produce large chemicals and the other breaks down chemicals to produce energy and small building blocks
