Document Summary

Energy is defined as the capacity to do work. The high energy phosphate bonds release energy when they are broken. When glucose is oxidized, it creates energy and heat. The energy is used to create atp from adp and pi which in turn releases more energy into work. Coupling of these reactions is not efficient. Approximately 60% of the energy released by the oxidation of a substrate is lost as heat only 40% is used for biological work: this is how we get body heat. Glycolysis of glucose to pyruvate produces nadh which produces atp. Nadh is the substrate for etc (end game is to produce large amounts of atp so other pathways are there to make acetyl coa to make nadh for etc) Glucose and fatty acid metabolism generate most of the atp (cid:396)elati(cid:448)el(cid:455) little f(cid:396)o(cid:373) amino acids.
