Medical term for production of new glucose?
glucogenesis
What are the uses of gluconeogenesis?
Used for the production of glucose which will serve as a energy storage compound in the body
Glucogenesis occurs in the liver due to the action of?
enzymes such as glucose-6-phosphatase, fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase. These enzymes promote the synthesis of glucose from non-carbohydrate sources such as amino acids, lactate, and glycerol. This process helps to maintain blood glucose levels during fasting or low carbohydrate intake.
What is the formation of glucose from proteins and fats?
Gluconeogenesis
Glucogenesis occurs in the liver due to?

What refers to the production of new glucose from the breakdown of protein?
glucogenesis
How glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis are alike?
because at the end of both metabolic processes glucose is produced.
What term refers to the production of new glucose from the breakdown of protein?
glucogenesis
Why gluconeogenesis cannot be considered a reversal of glycolysis even though both pathways share reversible reactions?
In glycolysis you get pyruvate (or lactate) as a end product but in gluconeogenesis you get glucose formed from either Fat or Proteins. There are many intermediate steps before pyruvate is formed from Proteins and Fats. So gluconeogenesis cannot be considered as reversal of glycolysis.
What is synthesis of glycogen?
Sucrose undergoes hydrolysis to produce glucose and fructose.
What is the process called when making glucose from non carbohydrate substances within the liver?
gluconeogenesis
What promotes gluconeogenesis?
Cortisol
