Where does gycolysis occur?
The cytoplasm.
What is Glycolytic action?
it refers to the breakdown of glucose
What is the breakdown product of glucose that diffused into the mitochondria matrix for further breakdown?
Pyruvic acid
When glucose is needed by the cell which organelles secrete enzymes in order to begin glucose breakdown?
When glucose is needed by the cell, enzymes are secreted primarily by lysosomes and the endoplasmic reticulum. Lysosomes contain hydrolytic enzymes that can break down macromolecules, including glycogen, into glucose. The endoplasmic reticulum is involved in synthesizing proteins, including enzymes that facilitate metabolic processes such as glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. Together, these organelles play a crucial role in the mobilization and breakdown of glucose for cellular energy.
What does the breakdown of starch produce?
The breakdown of starch produces glucose molecules, which can be used by cells as a source of energy through cellular respiration.
What is the sugar product of lactose breakdown?
Glucose and galactose
Which hormone stimulates the breakdown of polymerized glucose?
glucagon
Does glycogenolysis increase blood glucose levels?
Yes, glycogenolysis is the breakdown of glycogen into glucose, which can increase blood glucose levels.
How many FAD and NAD plus molecules are needed for the breakdown of each glucose molecule?
