👉 Metabasis is a concept in physics and chemistry, particularly related to the study of molecular dynamics simulations. It refers to the process by which molecules interact with each other at very small scales, such as atoms or subatomic particles. In this context, "metabolism" might be interpreted as the process by which chemical energy is converted into kinetic energy for the motion of individual molecules within a molecule. This conversion occurs because molecules in a system are constantly undergoing collisions and vibrational transitions that generate heat
