Assume that you have 93 molecule of glucose. All of heglucose is absorbed into the cell and 40% is immediately utilizedthrough glycolysis and the TCA cycle. The remaining 60%is stored as glycogen and later in the day approx. 75% of thepreviously stored glycogen is utilized for energy production byrunning through glycolysis and the TCA cycle. Calculate thenet APT production from all of these reactions. Bespecific

So basically 78.87 molecules of glucose go through glycolysisand TCA which leaves 13.95 stored as glycogen.
