Document Summary
16. 2: introduction: fats, carbohydrates and proteins are used for energy or to build structures, metabolism is the chemical changes that occur within a cell to either manufacture energy, store energy or build new cell structures. 34 molecules of atp from one molecule of glucose: occurs in the mitochondria and requires oxygen, each food molecule can enter one or more of these reactions to make energy, ex. In glycolysis, g6p will undergo a series of reactions that will result in the production of. If too much accumulates, then glycolysis will also be slowed. 16. 13: the metabolism of glucose the citric acid cycle. In the presence of oxygen, the pyruvate will enter the citric acid cycle to produce large quantities of atp while giving off co2 and h2o. This is the fasted state (post-absorptive: the body"s goal in this state is to maintain blood glucose levels by utilizing stored nutrients, including fats and glycogen.
