Concept Introduction:

Metabolism of monosaccharides in human body revolves around glucose. It comes from hydrolysis of ingested polysaccharides or glycogen. The pathway that provides energy from glucose is glycolysis pathway. In glycolysis, glucose or monosaccharides with six carbon atoms is converted into two molecules of pyruvate in 10 steps.
