An Overview of Metabolism and Biochemical Energy

Stage 1 Bulk food is hydrolyzed in the stomach and small intestine to give small molecules. [Pg.833]

Stage 2 Fatty acids, monosaccharides, and amino acids are degraded in cells to yield acetyl CoA. [Pg.833]

Acetyl CoA is oxidized in the citric acid cycle to give CO2. [Pg.833]

The energy released in the citric acid cycle is used by the electron-transport chain to oxidatively phosphorylate ADP and produce ATP. [Pg.833]

FIGURE 20.1 An overview of catabolic pathways for the degradation of food and the production of biochemical energy. The ultimate products of food catabolism are CO2 and HjO, with the energy released in the citric acid cycle used to drive the endergonic synthesis of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) from adenosine diphosphate (ADP) plus phosphate [Pg.833]
