Venn Diagram Directions
Use the information in your Metabolism Notes (including the terms defined above) to complete the Venn
diagrams at the bottom of this page and on the back. Each of the phrases in the word banks will be used once
and only once. Please write the entire phrase (if you need more space, feel free to draw your own Venn
diagrams on a separate piece of paper and attach them to this sheet).
