Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
All of the chemical reactions of the cell are called
A
metabolism
B
catabolism
C
redox reactions
D
phosphorylation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -metabolism, the sum of the chemical reactions that take place within each cell of a living organism and that provide energy for vital processes and for synthesizing new organic material.

Detailed explanation-2: -Metabolism (pronounced: meh-TAB-uh-liz-um) is the chemical reactions in the body’s cells that change food into energy. Our bodies need this energy to do everything from moving to thinking to growing. Specific proteins in the body control the chemical reactions of metabolism.

Detailed explanation-3: -Chemical reactions that take place inside living things are called biochemical reactions. The sum of all the biochemical reactions in an organism is referred to as metabolism.

Detailed explanation-4: -A cell’s metabolism refers to the combination of chemical reactions that take place within it. Catabolic reactions break down complex chemicals into simpler ones and are associated with energy release. Anabolic processes build complex molecules out of simpler ones and require energy.

Detailed explanation-5: -Catabolism is the metabolic process by which the cell breaks down complex molecules. The purpose of catabolic reactions is to provide the energy and components needed by anabolic reactions.
