Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Gluconeogenesis (literally, “formation of new sugar”) is the metabolic process by which glucose is formed from noncarbohydrate sources, such as lactate, amino acids, and glycerol.
Detailed explanation-2: -Glycogenesis or glycogen synthesis is a multi-step process that begins with converting glucose to glucose-6-phosphate via hexokinase or the liver isoform of hexokinase known as glucokinase. This process is an essential step as the addition of a phosphate group traps glucose within the cell.
Detailed explanation-3: -Gluconeogenesis is the process of synthesis of glucose from carbohydrate.
