The liver regulates metabolic processes and nutrient conversion.

Ingestion and assimilation of food, vitamins, and minerals.

The process of using nutrients for energy and building blocks.

The breakdown of food molecules, releasing stored energy.

The process of building complex compounds from nutrients.

The liver's role in metabolizing nutrients, detoxifying blood, and synthesizing proteins.

The series of reactions that convert glucose into energy, primarily through glycolysis and the citric acid cycle.

The anaerobic process of breaking down glucose in the cytoplasm to produce pyruvic acid and a small amount of ATP.

An aerobic process in mitochondria that converts acetyl CoA to carbon dioxide while generating high-energy electrons.

The level of glucose in the blood, normally between 80 to 110 mg per 100 mL when fasting.

The process where fats are used as energy sources and can be converted to glucose or stored as adipose tissue.

The process of breaking down proteins for energy, especially during starvation, through gluconeogenesis.

Organic compounds needed in small amounts for normal metabolism and essential enzyme function.

Inorganic substances necessary for various bodily functions, including nerve conduction and enzyme activation.

The rate of metabolism when a person is at rest, awake, and not digesting food.

The total energy expended by the body in a day, expressed in calories.

An eating disorder characterized by chronic refusal to eat and extreme weight loss.

A severe form of protein-calorie malnutrition resulting in tissue wasting and fluid imbalances.

The brain region that regulates body temperature and maintains homeostasis.

A condition resulting from excessive loss of fluid through sweating while trying to cool down.
