All made from glucose
Why do we need glucose ?

Some other molecules
are “polar” and will mix
well with water:

Some molecules are not
polar (non-polar) and don’t
mix well with water:

Production of energy
Remember cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration (includes Kreb’s cycle):
Glucose + O2
CO2 + H2O + ATP (energy)
Production of energy
cellular respiration
three subpathways
glycolysis
Kreb’s cycle
Electron transport chain
Fig. 10-12
Glycolysis
split glucose in half
pyruvate gets converted to acetyl-CoA
Other ways to make pyruvate/acetyl CoA
Glycolysis

New Zealand
USA
Mediterranean
countries
high meat
intake
(saturated fats)
olive oil
(unsaturated fats)
high
incidence of
CV disease
lower

Hawaii or CA
low consumption

These studies indicate that diet (fats)
is more of a factor than genetics
(heredity)
Atherosclerosis
Fat deposits in walls
of blood vessels
contribute to:
hypertension
heart attacks

anorexia nervosa
“When she weighed 65 kg (140 pounds),
Melanie thought of herself as fat and ugly.
Her menstrual periods stopped when her
weight dropped to 45 kg (100 pounds).
Now that she weighs 40 kg (90 pounds), all
her friends tell her she is too skinny, but
she is sure they are wrong because she
still thinks of herself as chubby. She wants
to lose even more weight. Melanie has an
eating disorder called anorexia nervosa.
Her body is not getting the nutrition it
needs. She could die the the situation
remains untreated.” (BT3, pg. 326)
