Reactions in Fuel Metabolism Flashcards
1
Q
Glycogenesis
A
Glucose –> glycogen, decreases blood glucose
2
Q
Glycogenolysis
A
glycogen –> glucose, increases blood glucose
3
Q
glucogenesis
A
amino acids –> glucose, increase blood glucose
4
Q
protein synthesis
A
amino acids –> protein, decrease in blood amino acids
5
Q
protein degradation
A
protein –> amino acids, increase in blood amino acids
6
Q
fat synthesis
A
fatty acids and glycerol
–> triglycerides, decrease in blood fatty acids
7
Q
fat breakdown
A
triglycerides –> fatty acids and glycerol, increase in blood fatty acids
