Concept introduction:
In eukaryotic cells, the organelles function and live separately within a cell, so that they can function much more efficiently. By compartmentalization, the cells contain a biochemical in large amount in a specific compartment, in spite of being present in the whole cell. moreover, compartments also help to increase the surface area for the

Why bother to eat? What are the three primary uses for cellular energy?
ATP yield. Each of the following molecules is processed by glycolysis to lactate. How much ATP is generated from each molecule?
Efficiency of ATP Production in Muscle: The transformation of glucose to lactate in myocytes releases only about 7% of the free energy released when glucose is completely oxidized to CO2 and H2O. Does this mean that anaerobic glycolysis in muscle is a wasteful use of glucose? Explain.
