    Intermediary Metabolism

    • Primary focus: conversion of energy and nutrients from food into usable forms
    • Directly related to cellular respiration, as it bridges catabolism and anabolism
    • Plays a crucial role in maintaining cellular homeostasis and energy balance

    Role in the Body

    • Enables the body to respond to changes in energy demand and nutrient availability
    • Regulates the flow of energy and nutrients between different cellular pathways
    • Maintains optimal energy levels and redox balance
