What organs are capable of turning lactate in glucose?
The conversion of lactate to glucose (see gluconeogenesis ) takes place almost exclusively in the liver, but lactate can be metabolized by the kidney and nervous tissue as well.
What is the name of the biochemical pathway describing the conversion of lactate to glucose?
gluconeogenesis or glyconeogenesis. It happens in the cori cicle, for instance - during exercise the muscles use the accumulated glucose to produce energy, producing lactate. Then the lactate goes in the blood stream and is used (mainly) in the liver to produce glucose again
The end product of the anaerobic phase of glucose metabolism is?
lactic acid
Explain how cells obtain energy from cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration is a process that releases chemical energy from sugars and other carbon based molecules to make ATP when oxygen is present. It takes place in the mitochondria. :) -Biology Textbook
Why can't we survive with only fermentation?
not enough ATP is produced for our bodies to function
What cellular process ATP by breaking down glucose into lactate?
Glycolysis
What do you get as products after breaking down of glucose in the absence of oxygen?
Energy and lactic acid (lactate).

Which of the following are true about oxaloacetate?
It is an intermediary in the synthesis of glucose from lactate
Why do erythrocytes produce l lactate from glucose?
erythrocytes lack a mitochondria do produce energy via ATP, however, they are able yp produce L-lactate from glucose. this is necessary for the production of energy to maintain membrane integrity and produce energy anaerobically by converting glucose to lactate.
Is there a glucose shot?
Yes; the solution called "Ringer's Lactate" is a mixture containing water, essential salts and electrolytes, and glucose.
Does lactic acid fermentation breaks down glucose to release energy in anaerobic respiration?
It doesn't break down glucose per se. It breaks down the pyruvate produced from glycolysis into lactate. Only the liver has the ability to convert lactate back to pyruvate.
What has the author Marc Beaudoin written?
Marc Beaudoin has written: 'Glucose, lactate and lactate dehydrogenase levels in the human kidney carcinoma cell line A498 (ATCC HTB-44)'
What is the brains source of energy?
Glucose is the main source of energy of the brain. It is converted to ATP inside the brain. However, the brain cells (neurons) themselves use some glucose. The other glucose is first metabolized and converted to "Lactate" by cells inside the brain called "Astrocytes". The lactate produced will then enter the neurons and then is converted to ATP.
What processes release energy from glucose?
The process by which ATP is manufactured from glucose is called cellular respiration. There are two steps within cellular respiration: glycolysis and (in the presence of oxygen) aerobic respiration. Without oxygen, fermentation reactions (to produce lactate or alcohol) take place, but produce less net energy.
Which of the following is the correct pairing between the initial reactant and major product of a type of fermentation?
Glucose; lactate
