Reaction 25.5 Hb (aq) + Glucose (aq) ⇄ Hb-Glucose (aq)  A patient’s blood glucose levels can fluctuate significantly (especially before and after meals). Alternatively, the diabetic A1C marker can be used which measures the percentage of hemoglobin-glucose (Hb-Glucose) in a patient's blood. Using Reaction 25.5, explain why clinicians can use the A1C marker (i.e. levels of Hb-Glucose) in a patient’s blood as a proxy for glucose levels in the blood?

Organic Chemistry of Metabolic Pathways

Metabolic pathways allude to the arrangement of chemical catalyzed reactions that lead to the transformation of a substance into the final product. Metabolic pathways incorporate a progression of reaction where the substrate is changed continuously and the transitional metabolites are persistently recovered.

Glucogenesis

Glucogenesis is a metabolic pathway in which glucose is produced from carbon substrates that are not carbohydrates. This process is observed in plants, animals, fungi, bacteria and other micro organisms. The general  definition for glucogenesis or gluconeogenesis is as follows,
