Biochemistry Metabolism Quiz

A catabolic pathway that breaks down glucose into pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP.

The anabolic pathway that synthesizes glycogen from glucose.

The anabolic pathway that synthesizes glucose from non-carbohydrate precursors.

An amphibolic pathway that generates energy and intermediates for other metabolic processes.

A catabolic pathway that converts pyruvate to Acetyl CoA, releasing CO2 and producing NADH.

A pathway that produces NADPH and ribose-5-phosphate.

A pathway leading to the synthesis of glucuronic acid, important in detoxification and vitamin C synthesis in animals.

Glucose breakdown in the presence of oxygen, yielding a larger amount of ATP compared to anaerobic glycolysis.

Glucose breakdown in the absence of oxygen, yielding a smaller amount of ATP.

Aerobic breakdown of glucose resulting in a significant ATP production.

Direct transfer of phosphate group from substrate to ADP, forming ATP.

The catabolic pathway that breaks down glycogen to glucose.

A coenzyme crucial in many metabolic processes, including glycolysis

A coenzyme vital for oxidation-reduction reactions.

A coenzyme essential for various biosynthetic processes.
