What cellular process results in the making of carbohydrates?
Glycogen, a polymer of glucose, is formed as a storage compound in the body. Glycogen may be broken down (glycogenolysis) to glucose for use in respiration. If what you want is a process that forms carbohydrates from non-carbohydrate sources, that would be gluconeogenesis.
What is the difference between glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis?
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
How is glycogen broke down?
The splitting of glycogen to release the single glucose units is called glycogenolysis. Lysis refers to 'splitting'.
What is glycogen supercompensation?
Glycogen supercompensation is a process in which the body's glycogen stores are increased above normal levels through carbohydrate loading. This is typically done before an endurance event to ensure that the body has an ample supply of glycogen for energy. It involves consuming a high-carbohydrate diet coupled with reduced exercise to promote glycogen storage in the muscles and liver.
The chemical process of building glycogen from glucose molecules?
well, you have those glucose molecules and then the enzyme "glycogen synthase" comes in and linkes the glucose molecules by a redox reaction in which water is formed
If a cell reverses the process of beta oxidation what molecule would it be making?
glycogen
What is the name of the process by which glycogen is converted to pyruvatei?
name of the process by which glycogen is converted to pyruvate

What are the three enzymes involved in the conversion of glycogen to glucose?
The process of "glycogenolysis" is the splitting of glycogen in the liver, which in turn produces glucose. Glucagon can be administered in emergency diabetic situations where sugar can't be taken orally.
What is the process of turning glucose to glycogen?
glycogenesis
Formation of glycogen by the liver cell?
The formation of glycogen by the liver cell is one of the best examples of anabolic processes. This is a process through which glucose is converted into glycogen.
What is the difference between glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis?
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
When glycogen is formed from monosaccharides it occurs by a process called hydrolysis?
No. The word hydrolysis has -lysis which means to break down. But if you are making glycogen you are building up. In this case dehydration occurs which is the opposite of hydrolysis (breaking down using water). Water is a by product in dehydration.
When glucose the monomeric subunit found in glycogen is required for energy glycogen is broken down through a process known as?
hydrolysis
How is glycogen broke down?
The splitting of glycogen to release the single glucose units is called glycogenolysis. Lysis refers to 'splitting'.
What is the opposite of glucogenisis?
Glucogenisis is the breakdown of glycogen in the liver to form glucose. The opposite of this process is call Glycogenisis, this is the conversion of glucose into glycogen.
