Glycogenesis is the process of forming glycogen from glucose molecules. This is a way for the body to store excess glucose for later use when energy demands are high, such as during physical activity or between meals. This is anabolic as a more complex molecule is formed from a comparatively simpler molecule using energy.

This is a catabolic process. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is broken down to ADP (adenosine diphosphate) to release energy for various cellular processes. Anabolic processes, on the other hand, involve the synthesis of complex molecules from simpler ones, often requiring energy input.
