Combustion is a physiochemical process that takes place at high temperatures. It is the process in which the oxidation of organic substances (such as coal) takes place. It releases energy in the form of light and heat and it does not involve any enzyme (biocatalyst).

Metabolism refers to converting food to energy, conversion of complex substances into simpler substances, and eliminating metabolic wastes. It is the sum of all life-sustaining chemical reactions that take place within the body. It is of two types: Catabolism (reactions that involve the breakdown of complex substances) and anabolism (reactions that involve the synthesis of complex substances).
