Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Gluconeogenesis is a ____ process.
A
anabolic
B
catabolic
C
hyperbolic
D
androbolic
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Gluconeogenesis is the metabolic pathway in the body used to create glucose. It is an anabolic reaction, meaning it uses energy to build more complex molecules. This process is necessary to keep a constant supply of glucose sugar to be used as energy. Glycolysis is the reverse process of gluconeogenesis.

Detailed explanation-2: -Gluconeogenesis is the metabolic process by which organisms produce sugars (namely glucose) for catabolic reactions from non-carbohydrate precursors.

Detailed explanation-3: -Glycogenesis is an anabolic process that requires ATP energy to assemble excess glucose molecules into more complex glycogen granules.

Detailed explanation-4: -Glycolysis, which literally means “breakdown of sugar, ‘’ is a catabolic process in which six-carbon sugars (hexoses) are oxidized and broken down into pyruvate molecules. The corresponding anabolic pathway by which glucose is synthesized is termed gluconeogenesis.

Detailed explanation-5: -Glycogenesis is an anabolic process that requires energy. It consists of the following steps: 1. Glucose phosphorylation.
