Concept explainers
Interpretation: To contrast the reactants in the first three steps of gluconeogenesis with the products in the last three steps of glycolysis.
Concept introduction: Glycolysis
In the gluconeogenesis pathway, glucose is produced from non-carbohydrate substances. The net overall equation for gluconeogenesis is as follows:
A reactant is defined as the substance that is initially present in the
