Formation of glucose from non-sugars is called _________ .
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is C gluconeogenesis
The synthesis of glucose from non-carbohydrate precursors, a process called gluconeogenesis. The major non carbohydrate precursors are lactate, amino acids, and glycerol.
Glycolysis is the process in which glucose is broken down to produce energy, forming two molecules of pyruvate, ATP, NADH and water. The process takes place in the cytosol of the cell cytoplasm.
Glycogenesis is the process of glycogen synthesis, in which glucose molecules are added to chains of glycogen for storage.
Glycogenolysis is the breakdown of the molecule glycogen into glucose, a simple sugar that the body uses to produce energy.
