Summary of the Different Metabolic Pathways of

Glucose

After reading through the discussion topic, be able to summarize the concepts learned by doing the
following learning activities:

A) Using a tabulated format, indicate the starting molecule for each step of the pathway, the molecules
involved in the process and the number of ATPs produced during each cellular respiration process:

B) Obtain a LABORATORY RESULT from your parents, siblings or any relative that underwent a
laboratory procedure (Urine Analysis).

 Examine the CLINICAL CHEMISTRY and tabulate the result:
