• The process of transferring glucose into energy 
• photosynthesis and respiration
• Transference of glucose to glycogen

Which of the following is NOT a metabolic process in animals

• Respiration 
• Formation of lipid molecules
• The reactions of photosynthesis
• Breakdown of excess proteins

• So you don't get out of breath
• It stops your heart rate increasing
• Reduces water loss
