Yes, glucose is the preferred source of energy for the brain. The brain relies on glucose for fuel as it cannot store or produce energy from other sources. Adequate glucose supply is crucial for proper brain function and cognitive performance.

What molecule cell most directly use for energy?

The most common way that cells produce energy is by the process of respiration where oxidation of glucose occurs which produces ATP (energy for the cells to use in other processes) The most enery can be gained from beta-oxidation of fatty acids, however this is not used on a regular basis (just during exercise or starvation to conserve glucose for organs such as the brain or liver). It is not commonly used because the stores of fat take longer to build back up than the stores of glucose (which is stored as glycogen)


Why is ATP better than glucose as an immediate energy source for cell metabolism?

Creatine phosphate is a better source of quick energy than glucose because in thermodynamic scale of energy potential Creatine phosphate is a super high energy phosphate compounds which has higher standard free energy of hydrolysis than that of ATP and can give its high energy phosphoryl group to ADP to generate ATP which is used to biosynthesis Glucose. so creatine phosphate stored in muscle is quick enery source to produce ATP than glucoe.

What is the primary source of energy for ATP formation?

Major source of energy is stored Fat in body. About 10 to 15 kg in average adult man of 70 kg weight. It gives 9 kilo calories (Calories.)/ gram of weight. For immediate release of energy, you have Glycogen stored in liver and muscles. About 150 grams each. Then about 1 gram/kg/day is broken down from body. Also other amine acids than 20 amine acids required by body are broken down to give you enegry. ( There are over 300 amine acids are found in nature.) Both give 4 kilocalories/ gram of weight. Glucose enters after Glycolysis and others enter in TCA cycle via Acetyl co A, to give enery to you in biological oxidation.

What dose sugar contain?

Sugar is just glucose, when there is a lot of it. Sugar is a simple carbohydrate. That's why it gives you a random enery boost or makes you hyper when you ingest it :)
