Making glucose form an amino acid is a type of a real neat trick. Normally plants make glucose from a reaction involving carbon dioxide and hydrogen with the hydrogen produced from water by photosynthesis. Glucose is a raw material for the production of amino acids. The other way around does not work.
Gluconeogenesis
Fat is made up of fatty acids and glycerol. A triglyceride is formed when a glycerol forms with three fatty acids.
glycerol and carboxylic acid combines to form a lipids.

No. The sub-units for carbohydrates is a monosaccharide such as glucose or fructose. Fatty acids are what results from the sub-unit aliphatic compounds and glycerol.
yes in fasted states (or when you have used your glycogen stores), glucagon or adrenaline can breakdown stored triglycerides (in adipose tissue) into glycerol and fatty acids. The glycerol goes to the liver when it is involved in gluconeogenesis (synthesis of glucose from non-carb source). This is essentially a reversal of glycolysis: The glycerol molecule is converted to dihydroxyacetone phosphate, which then is converted to fructose 1,6 biphosphate and then after a number of steps, is converted to glucose. I dont think the glycerol molecule is converted to pyruvate, but instead joins in the pathway at the step decribed above.
glucose, amino acids, glycerol, fatty acids.
glycerol
soluble end of products such as glucose , amino acids and fatty acids and glycerol
Yes. lipids are broken down to fatty acids and glycerol by hydrolysis, glycerol can be converted to glyceraldehyde - 3 - phosphate which can be a start point for gluconeogenesis, in which glucose is formed.
- CH2- : The monomer of a triglyceride is one glycerol and 3 fatty acids.
triglycerides consist of 3 fatty acids and glycerol. because fatty acids break down to acetyl CoA they cannot be made into glucose. the glycerol portion of a triglyceride can be converted to pyruvate and thus yield glucose. and glycerol is about 5% of a triglyceride molecule. So the answer is 95% of a triglyceride (fatty acid) cannot be converted to glucose.
amino acids glucose fatty acids n glycerol or absorbed in to the blood in the ileum
When completely digested in the body, milk becomes free fatty acids, glycerol, amino acids, glucose, water and minerals.
1 glycerol and 3 fatty acids so the monomers basically are glycerol and fatty acids
Fat is made up of fatty acids and glycerol. A triglyceride is formed when a glycerol forms with three fatty acids.
No. Cellulose is a polymer of a sugar (glucose). Fatty acids covalently bonded with glycerol (by dehydration) to form esters (glycerides) are lipids.
