Metabolism:
• Metabolism: refers to the entire network of chemical processes involved in maintaining life.
• Energy metabolism: the ways that the body obtains and spends energy from food.

• Anabolism: The building of compounds from small molecules into larger ones. Energy is used for this process to take place.
• Catabolism: The breakdown of molecules into smaller units. Energy is released in this process.– Ex: Glucose catabolism results in the release of
CO2 and H2O

ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate):
• The main energy source of cells. • Used for muscular contractions,
enzyme activity, etc.• Catabolism results in the production of
many ATP molecules: energy.• Used by the body when energy is
needed.• Hydrolysis breaks the bonds in ATP,
thus releasing energy.

Metabolic Efficiency:
• Food energy is converted to ATP with approximately 50% efficiency.
• The other 50% is released as heat.
• When ATP is needed for energy, ~50% are used.
• Overall: 25% of food becomes energy
75% is released as heat.

Metabolism: FON 241; L. Zienkewicz
How is energy produced?Three stages:
1. Proteins, Carbohydrates and Fats are broken down during digestion and absorption into smaller units: AA’s monosaccharides and fatty acids.
2. These smaller compounds are further broken down into 2-carbon compounds.
3. Compounds are degraded into CO2
and H20.

Metabolism: FON 241; L. Zienkewicz
Helpers in reactions:
• Enzymes: proteins that facilitate chemical reactions without being changed in the process; protein catalysts.
• Coenzymes: assist enzymes in their activities.

1. Glucose breakdown
Glycolysis: A reaction in which glucose is degraded to pyruvate; net profit: 2 ATP. An anaerobic pathway.
Glucose
Pyruvate
Lactic Acid Acetyl CoA
Oxygen available
2 ATP
Less oxygen available
![Page 12: Metabolism: FON 241; L. Zienkewicz Metabolism Chapter 7.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649e845503460f94b866e5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Metabolism: FON 241; L. Zienkewicz
The path from Pyruvate to Acetyl CoA is NOT reversible.

• Urea excreted via the kidneys
• Water needed for urea excretion
![Page 17: Metabolism: FON 241; L. Zienkewicz Metabolism Chapter 7.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649e845503460f94b866e5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Metabolism: FON 241; L. Zienkewicz
The TCA Cycle:
• Functions to convert Acetyl CoA to CO2 and to produce energy.
• Oxaloacetate combines with Acetyl CoA to begin the cycle.
• The result: produces potential ATP (energy).
![Page 18: Metabolism: FON 241; L. Zienkewicz Metabolism Chapter 7.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649e845503460f94b866e5/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Metabolism: FON 241; L. Zienkewicz
The Electron Transport Chain:
• The primary site for ATP (energy) synthesis.• Uses Oxygen to convert products of the TCA
cycle into energy.

Why is fat higher in energy?•Fat’s carbon-hydrogen bonds can be easily oxidized, yielding energy (ATP).
•1 glucose molecule yields 38 ATP when oxidized.
•1 fatty-acid (16-C) will yield 129 ATP when oxidized.
![Page 20: Metabolism: FON 241; L. Zienkewicz Metabolism Chapter 7.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649e845503460f94b866e5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Metabolism: FON 241; L. Zienkewicz
Weight Maintenance:
• Dietary fat can be easily transformed into body fat.
• Surplus protein leads to:1. Replacing daily losses.
2. Increased protein oxidation (energy).
3. Storage as fat.
• Surplus carbohydrate leads to:1. Storage as glycogen.
2. Increased CHO oxidation (variable w/ diet).
3. Storage as fat.
