because at the end of both metabolic processes glucose is produced.
Alpha cells in the pancreas detect low blood sugar and secrete glucagon. Glucagon travels to the liver to stimulate breakdown of glycogen reserves (glycogenolysis) and stimulate gluconeogenesis (production of new glucose).
Once your pulse/heart rate increased during working out, your metabolism speeds up too. During the process of metabolism, there is gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis involved. This is the normal mechanism of body to produce energy.
Insulin is an anabolic hormone as: 1) it promotes glycogen synthesis & inhibits glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis in carbohydrates. 2) it promotes lipogenesis & inhibits lipolysis. 3) promotes protein synthesis & inhibits protein degradation
Glycogenolysis is when the glucagon binds to the glucagon receptors , the liver cells convert the glycogen polymer nto individual glucose molecules and release into the bloodstream, while Gluconeogenesis is is the biosynthesis of new glucose
Gluconeogenesis
Glucagon
Yes, glycogenolysis occurs in the cytosol of the cell. It is the breakdown of glycogen to release glucose molecules for energy production. The enzymes responsible for glycogenolysis are found in the cytosol of cells.
Yes, glycogenolysis is the breakdown of glycogen into glucose, which can increase blood glucose levels.
It occurs in the liver.
Phosphorolysis
Glucose formation primarily occurs in plants during the process of photosynthesis, where carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose using sunlight as the energy source. In animals, glucose is mainly formed through the breakdown of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in the liver via processes like glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis.
