16: Sugar Metabolism

Students trace glucose through glycolysis to pyruvate, calculate net ATP and NADH yield, explain how fructose and galactose enter the pathway, describe NAD+ regeneration through fermentation, identify regulatory control points responsive to energy demand and hormonal signals, and contrast gluconeogenesis bypass reactions with irreversible glycolytic steps including reciprocal regulation between the two pathways.
