Is been long time have done something important on this forum after my NCLEX IN 2009. I've read so many on Hesi A2 on this forum, but no one is really interested in starting a study guide forum. Am helping a friend prepare for her Hesi come February. So I decided to use this forum to helped her. Wish y' all taken Hesi A2!!

What is the process by which food is burned to release enery?

1. Anabolism

2.Metabolism

3.Catabolism

4.Hydrolysis

Specializes in L&D.

To answer the above question the correct answer is CATABOLISM. Can you pls post more study question? Am taken Hesi A2 next week @ Lonestar college in houston,Tx.
