how many reactions are involved in glycolysis
10
what happens overall in the prep phase of glycolysis
glucose -> G3P
what happens overall in the payoff phase of glycolysis
G3P -> pyruvate
what do high energy state molecules do to the glycolysis pathway
slow it down
what do low energy state molecules do to the glycolysis pathway
drive the pathway
what is produced in a single krebs cycle
2 co2
1 gtp
1 fadh2
3 nadh
3 h+
which ETC protein is the most dangerous to block
4
apart from glucose, which other molecule supplies energy in brain metabolism
ketone bodies
what happens during high energy bursts in the muscles
glycogen is converted to lactate
what happens during low energy burst in the muscles
glucose/fatty acids/ketone bodies converted to CO2
