Metabolism (One)
Glycolysis
- ONE Glucose Molecule creates TWO Pyruvate Molecules
- ATP used but 4 are produced along with H+
-
Aerobic
- When slower energy expenditure occurs and sufficient oxygen present, energy production sustained over longer time.
- Pyruvate molecules enter mitochondria within the cell
- It’s slower but total energy yield is greater.
-
Anaerobic
- When energy is required quickly
- High-intensity Expenditure
- Pyruvate → Lactate (by accepting H+)
- It can't be sustained for long
-
Nutrients for Energy
- Glucose can be made from all carbohydrates, some amino acids and the glycerol portion of fats.
- Macronutrients consumed in excess can contribute to fat storage
- Glucose and Fatty Acids are mainly used for energy (AA to a lesser extent)
-
Acetyl CoA
- Enter TCA Cycle and Generate ATP
- Synthesis Fat (Lipogenesis)
