Glycogenolysis is an example of which type of metabolic reaction?

Solution

Metabolism is of two types. Catabolism (breakdown of molecules) and anabolism (two or more molecules combine to form a larger molecule).

Since glycogenolysis is breakdown of glycogen to glucose, it is a catabolic reaction. It occurs in cells of muscle and liver.
