Document Summary

List the building blocks of all the main food groups as well as their storage forms in the body. Describe the three chemical reactions/metabolic pathways in the body that produce atp. List how much atp each can form, which one requires oxygen, and where the reactions take place in the cell. Describe where each fuel source enters the metabolic pathways. Describe in detail the full metabolism of glucose by glycolysis and the citric acid cycle (in the presence of oxygen and without oxygen). Describe in detail the full metabolism of fats and amino acids. Explain all the processes involved in the fed state of metabolism and how insulin is involved in this process and all its functions. Explain all the processes involved in the fasted state of metabolism and how glucagon is involved in this process and all its functions. List all the other hormones that help to regulate metabolism and explain how they perform their function.
