Glucose

Front 1

Glucose

Back 1

1) The only carbohydrate to be directly used for energy or stored as glycogen

2) Most important part of carbohydrate metabolism

Front 2

Galactose and fructose must be concverted ?

Back 2

to glucose before they can be used

Front 3

Galactosemia ?

Back 3

do not covert galactose to glucose

Front 4

The ultimate goal of the cell is to convert glucose into

Back 4

carbon dioxide and water

Front 5

The three patways for Glucose are ?

Back 5

1) Hexone Monophosphate shunt
2) Embden-Meyerh of patway
3)Glycongenesis for storage

Front 6

Gluconeogenesis ?

Back 6

conversiton of amino acids by the liver and other specialized tissue, susch as the kidney

Front 7

Glycolysis ?

Back 7

metabolism of glucose molecule to pyruvate or lactate for production of energy

Front 8

Anaerobic glycoslis ?

Back 8

without a oxygen is imporatn for tissue such as muscle

2) b) Tissue can derive ATP from glucose in an oxygen deficient environment by converting pyruvic acid into lactic acid

Front 9

Glycogenolysis-

Back 9

a) process by which glycogen is converted back to glucose 6 phoshate for entry into the glycolytic pathway

b) Breakdown of glucose n to glycogen for storage

Front 10

Hexone Monophosphate shunt

Back 10

1) Glucose 6- phosphate enter
2) Detour of glucose-6 phospate from the glycoltyic pathway to be come 6-phosphate acid

3) NADPH is important to erythrocytes that lack mitochondria and are therefore incapable of the TCA cycle

Front 11

Glucose in the liver reacts

Back 11

ATP with Hexokinase to form G-6 phophsate

Front 12

Embden-Meyerh of patway

Back 12

5) Glucose is broken down into two, three carbon molecules of pyruvic acid that can enter the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA cycle) on converstion to acety-coenzyme A

Front 13

Embden-Meyerh of patway

Back 13

aerobic pathway This requires oxygen

Front 14

First step for all three pathways requires glucose to be converted to ?

Back 14

glucose 6 phsophate using the high energy hexokinase.
