| Question | Answer |
| Glycogenolysis | Liver process: breaks down liver glycogen, releases glucose into blood Highly responsive to exercise |
| Gluconeogenesis | Liver process: converts metabolic byproducts into glucose and releases into blood |
| Lipolysis | TAG breakdown Sensitive to insulin |
| C | 1. Blood glucose 2. Muscle glycogen |
| Fat fuel sources | 1. Plasma fatty acid 2. Intramuscular triglycerides |
| Rate of energy transfer: CHO vs. protein | CHO is 2x faster than protein |
| Simple lipids | Insoluble Hydrophobic e.g. triglycerides |
| Saturated fatty acid | No double bonds e.g. animal fat |
| Unsaturated fatty acid | One or more double bonds e.g. oils |
| Compound lipid | Lipid + another molecule e.g. phospholipid, glycolipid, lipoprotein |
| Lipoprotein types | Chylomicrons HDL LDL VLDL |
| Chylomicron | packaged triglycerides from diet |
| High Density Lipoproteins | “good cholesterol” ~50% is protein |
| Low Density Lipoprotein | “bad cholesterol” ~25% is protein |
| Very Low Density Lipoprotein | mostly triglyceride inside made in the liver |
| Anabolism | Tissue building |
| Catabolism | Tissue breakdown |
| Proteins | Long chains of amino acids |
| Alanine-glucose cycle | (insert image) |
