Q

Glucose

A

6 carbon carb
Most common monosachride
Primary nutrient supplying energy cell
Bound into the polysaccharide glycogen during glycoyenesis
Sugar found in food → make ATP

Q

Cellular respiration

A
  • Exergonic multistep metabolic pathway
  • organic molecules = oxidized and disassembled by a series of enzymes
    _Potential energy in chem bonds = released
  • energy used to make ATP (endorgonic)
  • oxygen = required
