Document Summary

Combine small molecules to make large ones. Break large molecules into 2 or more smaller ones. Adp + p = atp: catabolism. Remove an electron (h+/h-) from a molecule. Add electron (h+/h-) to a molecule: oxidation. Requires oxygen (final acceptor molecule in chains) Glycolysis: glucose > pyruvic acid (pyruvate) + 2 atp, occurs throughout cytoplasm. Krebs cycle: pyruvate > co2 + nadh + fadh2 +2 atp, occurs only in mitochondria. Electron transport: nadh and fadh2 (separately) > h2o + 34 atp. Glycogenesis: glucose > glycogen (stored in liver, controlled by insulin. Glycogenolysis: glycogen > glucose (released into bloodstream, controlled by glucagon. Gluconeogenesis: conversion of amino acids or glycerol > glucose, fats. Lipolysis: triglycerides (adipose tissue) > fatty acids and glycerol. Gluconeogenesis: glycerol > glucose, glucose then broken down by carbohydrate pathways. Beta oxidation: fatty acids > acetyl coenzyme a, allows entry into krebs cycle.
