What does your body turn glucose into?
The liver stores glucose as glycogen and glucose is required for respiration
Why is glucose your bodies single most important source of energy?
Glucose is very important source. This is because, your brain can use glucose only as a source of energy. Rest of the body can manage without the glucose. Fortunately you get much more glucose from your food than required by your body. Glucose being the primary product of photosynthesis.
Which of these is required for the body's production of energy?
oxygen
Do you use glucose in the from of glucose?
Yes, your body uses glucose in the form of glucose. All other sugars are converted into glucose so your body can use them.
How many molecules of G3P are required to produce one molecule of glucose?
To produce one molecule of glucose, six molecules of G3P are required.
How many turns of the Calvin Cycle are required to produce glucose?
Six turns of the Calvin Cycle are required to produce one molecule of glucose.
How many turns of the Calvin cycle are required to produce a molecule of glucose?
Six turns of the Calvin cycle are required to produce a molecule of glucose.
What is the main storage form of glucose in the body?
The main storage form of glucose in the body is glycogen.
What is the difference between the glucose and glycogen?
Glucose is a monosaccharide (or simple sugar) also known as grape sugar, blood sugar, or corn sugar, it is a very important carbohydrate in biology. Glycogen is a starch like carbohydrate stored in the liver and other animal tissues. It is changed into glucose when the body needs energy. Glucose is found in the body's blood. Everything we eat gives us energy. Glucose basically gives us this energy. The liver takes blood that has too much glucose in it and turns this into glycogen. When the correct amount of energy from the glucose is produced, the liver then turn the glucose into glycogen. The glycogen is then stored . When the body is low on energy (decrease in blood glucose), cells secrete glucagon. This breaks down the glycogen and turns it into glucose and releases it into the blood, so that the body can get the right amount of energy required. This process continues as the body tries to maintain a balance in energy. (:
What is the process where your body uses glucose and oxygen to produce energ?
The process where your body uses glucose and oxygen to produce energy is called cellular respiration. During this process, glucose is broken down into carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the main energy currency of cells. Oxygen is required as the final electron acceptor in this process.
Glycogen to glucose?
Glycogen is a storage of energy within the body, and glucose is the primary form of energy. So for example, if your body requires glucose to survive, when it has plentiful amounts. Your body converts glucose into glycogen for storage. However, if your body has low amount of glucose within it. Your body will rely on the storage of glycogen to break down into its components and use the glucose for fuel.
Where in the body does blood lose glucose?
It loses glucose by exercising
