The Pentose Phosphate Pathway is an example of anabolism.

Explanation:

The pentose phosphate pathway (PPP))is more anabolic as it synthesizes complex molecules like reducing agents (NADPH) and pentose sugar from simpler glucose molecules.

The main functions of this pathway are:

Generation of reducing equivalents like reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) (reduced form of NADP) is used for cellular anabolic reduction reactions of biosynthesis of nucleic acids, fatty acids. The PPP metabolic pathway accounts for about 60% of NADPH synthesis. NADPH functions both as a co-factor and as a fundamental metabolite in cellular biosynthesis.

The pentose sugar or the five-carbon link sugar ribose-5-phosphate (R5P) synthesized in PPP is used for biosynthesis of nucleic acids and nucleotides.

Since the products of phosphate pentose pathway are primarily used for anabolic reactions in biosynthesis, this is more anabolic.

during the process of dna replication, brdu can replace thymidine and incorporate into the newly synthesized dna, cell proliferation thus can be reflected in the extent of brdu incorporation.

the dna molecules have a negative charge because of the phosphate groups in their sugar-phosphate backbone, so they start moving through the matrix of the gel towards the positive pole. power is turned on and dna fragments migrate through gel (towards the positive electrode).
