  • Entire collection of free amino acids throughout the body is called amino acid pool.
  • All tissues and biomolecules in the body are constantly being degraded, repaired and replaced through a process known as turnover.
  • The citric acid cycle includes a series of oxidation-reduction reactions in mitochondria that results in the oxidation of an acetyl group to two molecules of carbon dioxide and reduce the coenzymes that are reoxidized through the electron transport chain, linked to the formation of ATP
  • Urea cycle is the cyclic biochemical pathway that produces urea for excretion.
