Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The point at which glycerol enters the glycolysis pathway is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Catabolism and anabolism are the two biological processes in which energy is involved. In anabolism, energy is used to form complex molecules. On the other hand in catabolism energy is released when the breakdown of food take place. The three stages involved in the extraction of energy from food are digestion, production of acetyl CoA and common catabolic pathway.
