b. absorption
c. metabolism
d. hydrolysis

2. Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that:
a. splits glucose into two molecules of pyruvate.
b. generates glucose from glucogenic amino acids.
c. synthesizes glycogen
d. creates glucose molecules from glycogen.

3. A factor that promotes maximum production of ATP in cellular metabolism is the presence of:
a. oxygen
b. carbon
c. nitrogen
d. chromium

4. When needed for a source of energy, fatty acids are broken down and become:
a. pyruvate.
b. acetyl CoA.
c. glucose.
d. chylomicrons.

5. The first step in using amino acids to make ATP is:
a. deamination.
b. transamination.
c. glycolysis.
d. anabolism.

Answer 1

1) Metabolism
2) Either a or c... Glycolysis is the metabolic pathway that converts glucoseC6H12O6, into pyruvate, CH3COCOO− + H+.
3)Oxygen
4) id go with glucose based off of this-- (During this process, the fatty acids are directly broken down into a usable energy source. Likewise, the fat can be broken down to produce glucose through a process called gluconeogenesis. In this process, fatty acids are broken down to produce glucose which is another form of energy for the body. (not 100% tho sorry)
5)A it is not the last two for sure
