👉 Metabolizing is a process in which an organism converts its stored energy or nutrients into usable energy form. This occurs through various metabolic pathways, such as protein synthesis, carbohydrate metabolism, fat oxidation, and nucleic acid synthesis. In simple terms, it's like breaking down food to make energy that you can use for activities you do on the go. Metabolizing helps organisms survive in their environment by providing them with the nutrients they need to function effectively.
