The body uses carbohydrates, fats, and proteins to fuel all its activities. These fuels each start down a different path, but they all ultimately end upproviding energy by going through the TCA cycle and electron transport chain.Identify which compounds can be formed during metabolism from each fuel source.Compounds Formed During MetabolismGlucoseFuel SourcesGlycerolFatty acidsGlucoseGlucogenic amino acidsKetogenic amino acidsAcetyl COA Pyruvate LactateOBU0040OOD000001200000Fat
