Isomers
Different compounds with same molecular formula
Structural isomers
Atoms arranged in different sequences
Stereoisomers
Same sequence of molecular formula but differ in arrangement of atoms in space
Geometric isomer
Same structure but flipped
Enantiomers
Mirror image isomer

Small molecule to big molecule
Catabolic
Macromolecules broken down into subunits
Hydrolysis
