Document Summary
Lecture 14 - carb metabolism: glycogenolysis, glycolysis, and gluconeogenesis textbook readings: review chapter 8. 2, ch. 11. 4 (energy yields, respiratory quotients, and reducing equivalents) & intro to chap. 12, 12. 1, 12. 2, 12. 4, 12. 5, & 12. 8: explain why the oxidation of organic molecules is so important to a living organism. (sec. 11. 4: compare and contrast the structure of starch and glycogen. (sec. 12. 8: explain why the glycogen stores in liver are used differently than the glycogen stores in muscle. (sec. Identify and briefly describe the two phases of glycolysis. (sec. 12. 1: list the tissues that synthesize glucose and the tissues that use glucose as the primary energy source but cannot synthesize it. (sec. 12. 5: write the net reaction for glycolysis and for gluconeogenesis. (table 12. 1 and table 12. 2) Identify which reactions are unique to gluconeogenesis. (sec. Slow respiration: oxygen (aerobic) includes all of these processes. Fast respiration: oxygen is not required (anaerobic) includes both of these processes.
