What is the term that refers to the production of new glucose from the breakdown of protein?

Gluconeogenesis is the term that refers to the production of new glucose from the breakdown of protein or other non-carbohydrate sources like amino acids.


What are the term used when the person having blood glucose level below and above the critical level?

The term used when a person has high levels of glucose circulating in the blood is Hyperglycemia. For someone who has low levels of glucose the term is Hypoglycemia.Hyperglycemia- The term used when blood glucose levels are too high.Hypoglycemia- The term used when blood glucose levels are too low.The general term for a rapid loss or gain of glucose is 'glucose shock.'A fasting blood glucose level above 126 milligrams per deciliter is considered hyperglycemic. A blood glucose level of below 50 milligrams per deciliter is considered hypoglycemic.


Is there another name for glycolysis?

Glycolysis is an older term for glucose.


Is glycogen storage long term or short term?

Glycogen storage is considered short term, as it is the body's primary way of storing excess glucose for quick energy release during times of need, such as exercise or fasting. It is stored in the liver and muscles and can be rapidly broken down to release glucose when required.


What is the long term supply of glucose to cellular respiration?

The long-term supply of glucose to cellular respiration comes from the breakdown of complex carbohydrates stored in the body, such as glycogen in the liver and muscles, as well as from dietary sources. When glucose levels in the blood are low, the body can also convert other molecules, such as fats and proteins, into glucose through processes like gluconeogenesis.

What is glucogenolysis?

I think you have your terms confused, the term glucogenolysis is, I believe, a mix-up of the term glycogenolysis, which is the breakdown of stored glycogen into glucose. Gluconeogenesis is the formation of new glucose from amino acids from protein breakdown and glycerin from fat breakdown. Glucogenolysis does not occur as glucose is not required to split. Instead, when the blood glucose level is too high, Glycogenesis occurs in which glucose is converted to the storage form glycogen.

Does glycogen meet short term or long term needs of energy?

Glycogen meets the long-term needs of energy. This is due to the fact that readily available glucose gets stored in the liver as glycogen. When blood glucose levels fall this glycogen is then converted back into glucose for energy requirements.


Where does the body store carbohydrate short term?

Carbohydrates are absorbed by the body and converted into glucose. The glucose can be stored as fat or as glycogen in the liver or the muscles. There is no short term storage of carbohydrates.


What compound can be made from glucose and serves as long term energy storage?

Carbs and fats can be used as long term storage and are sometimes converted from glucose.
