6C carb

A

hexose- ex. gluctose and fructose

19
Q

aldose

A

aldehyde at 1st C- ex. ribose and glucose

20
Q

ketose

A

ketone group on 2nd C- ex. fructose

21
Q

isomers of glucose (2)

A

galactose and mannose

22
Q

glycosidic bond

A

binds monosaccharides by dehydration

23
Q

major dietary carbs

A

starch, glycogen, saccharose, lactose

24
Q

What mechanism in the small intestines absorbs carbs?

A

Na+ symport through transport mechanisms (SGLT1 & GLUT5 and 2)

25
Catabolic pathways
captures energy by breaking down large molecules
26
examples of catabolic metabolic pathways
glycolysis and glycogenolysis
27
anabolic pathways
use energy combine small molecules to form more complex molecules
28
examples of anabolic metabolic pathways
gluconeogenesis and glycogenesis
29
hormonal regulation of glycolysis
insulin increases formation of glucose, | glucagon increases glycogen storage
30
Other names for TCA
Tricarboxylic acid cycle, | krebs cycle, citric acid cycle
31
ATP synthase reaction
ADP + Pi -> ATP + H2O
32
enzymes used in gluconeogenesis
pyruvate carboxylase, PEP-carboxykinase, fructose 1,6-bisphophatase, glucose 6-phosphatase
33
physiological processes of NADPH
synthesis (fatty acids, sterile hormones and NO), drug metabolism, reduces enzymes in the body (glutathione, cytochrome P450), generation of superoxide, carrying electrons to ETC complexes
