Carbohydrate Metabolism Overview

 Ingestion and Digestion:

 Ingestion: Carbohydrates are taking in by food and beverages such as bread, rice, potatoes, and more.

 Digestion: Carbohydrates that are taken for digestion are divided into the basic sugars by the help of the digestive enzymes. For example, if the foods that contain starches are swallowed, these are broken down by enzymes such as amylase to glucose.

 Absorption:

 Small Intestine: These are absorbed through the pile of small intestine into the blood stream in case of the simplified sugars. Glu is the most abundant sugar and often transported to other tissues as aeras.

 Transport and Utilization:

 Bloodstream: These transport glucose in the blood to cells that located in several parts of the body.

 Cellular Uptake: Glucose is an everyday sugar that in the human body is taken into cells with the help of insulin which is released by the pancreas.

 Metabolism in Cells:

 Glycolysis: In cells glucose is fused through glycolysis to form pyruvate and in so doing ATP is generated.

 Aerobic Respiration: In aerobic condition it goes to the mitochondria and through Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphrylation ATP and CO₂ is formed in large amount.

 Anaerobic Respiration: Under anaerobic conditions pyruvate is converted to lactate. Online Etymology.

 Exhalation of CO₂:

 Carbon Dioxide Production: Meanwhile in aerobic respiration the by product formed is CO2.

 Transport to Lungs: CO₂ is then taken back to the lungs in the blood stream of the body The diagrams of Stella’s respiratory system Below are the diagrams of Stella respiratory system File Stella Respiratory System. pptx.

 Exhalation: It dissolves into the blood type, and disperses in the alveoli in the lungs before exhaling it out of the body.

 Subject to the problem field diagram shown in Appendix A, each of the following subproblems has a detailed explanation:Subject to the problem field diagram shown in Appendix A, each of the following subproblems has a detailed explanation:

 Eating Carbohydrates:

 Carbohydrates when consumed, are being processed in the body and are converted into glucose in the body system.

 Transport and Energy Production:

 Glucose enters in the blood and is delivered to cells.

 In the intracellular maters glucose is used to synthesize ATP through glycolisis and other related processes.

 CO₂ Production and Removal:

 The by products of glucose used for energy production in aerobic respiration includes CO₂.

 It removes it from the cell to the blood stream of the body.

 From here it gets distributed within the body and finally gets to the lungs were it goes from the blood to the alveoli and out of the body through the lungs.

 Diagram Insights:

 Possibly the graph depicts how the complexes of carbohydrates are assimilated and transformed into glucose and the last process of elimination of CO₂ from the body.

 Some of the include; breaking down of starches into glucose, glucose utilization in the cells, expelling of CO₂ as a by product of aerobic respiration.

 This structure of this draft outline should reflect the processes in carbohydrate metabolism, and the role of CO₂.
