Document Summary

Identify the nutrients involved in energy metabolism and the high-energy compounds that capture the energy released during their breakdown. Define the following: metabolic pathway, anabolic, catabolic, substrate, intermediate, product, oxidative phosphorylation. Note: a substance is oxidized when it loses 1 or more electrons. A substance is reduced when it gains 1 or more ele(cid:272)t(cid:396)o(cid:374)s. i(cid:374) o(cid:396)ga(cid:374)i(cid:272) (cid:272)o(cid:373)pou(cid:374)ds it is easie(cid:396) to follo(cid:449) h a(cid:374)d o if a (cid:272)o(cid:373)pou(cid:374)d gai(cid:374)s. O or loses h, it has been oxidized. If a compounds loses o or gains h it has been reduced. What is the common intermediate in energy production pathways that are shared by all three macronutrients? (what do they all (or most) end up becoming at some point?) Carbohydrate (glucose) glycolysis = glucose pyruvate can either progress through aerobic or anaerobic metabolism. Aerobic pyruvate acetyl coa which enters tca cycle, then process proceeds to etc. Outline the steps in the cori cycle and where each step takes place.
