  1. 2. Synthesis of glucose from Glycogen.
  2. 3. The sum of all chemical reactions that take place in a cell or organism.
  3. 10. Process where NADH and FADH2 are re-oxidized and the energy released drives ATP synthesis.
  4. 13. Uncoupling agent used as a diet drug in the past. Causes fuel molecules to be catabolized rapidly and energy is released as heat.
  5. 16. Formation of glucose from non-carbohydrate precursors.
  6. 18. Molecule from the citric acid cycle that inhibits PFK-1 through feedback inhibition.
  7. 20. Enzyme in first step of glycolysis, facilitates phosphorylation of glucose.
  8. 21. Cycle that breaks down Acetyl-CoA to CO2 and captures energy as NADH and FADH2.
  9. 23. Organ in which gluconeogenesis occurs.
  10. 24. A reaction that replenishes a citric acid cycle intermediate.

  1. 1. Preferred fuel for brain and kidney, also the only fuel for red blood cells.
  2. 2. Enzyme which catalyzes formation of glycogen from UDP-glucose.
  3. 4. A process that is both anabolic and catabolic.
  4. 5. Enzyme that catalyzes conversion of G-6-P to G-1-P to be used for glycogen synthesis.
  5. 6. To convert chemical energy stored in glucose to usable chemical energy.
  6. 7. Catalyzes second step of glycolysis, converts G-6-P to F-6-P.
  7. 8. Enzyme in step 6 of glycolysis, in which GAP is oxidized to form 1,3-BPG and help produce NADH.
  8. 9. Enzyme that catalyzes the lysis of Fructose-1,6-Bisphosphate to form DHAP and GAP.
  9. 11. Hormone that activates PFK-2, which catalyzes formation of F-2,6-BPG, which activates PFK-1.
  10. 12. Enzyme that catalyzes addition of a phosphate to Fructose-6-Phosphate. Also the rate determining step of glycolysis.
  11. 14. Couples electron transport and ATP synthesis.
  12. 15. Site of Oxidative Phosphorylation.
  13. 17. enzyme that catalyzes the dehydration of 2-PG to form Phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP).
  14. 19. Breaking down molecules to obtain energy and building blocks.
  15. 22. Site of the Citric Acid Cycle.
