For BIOCHEM
1. When we refer to "anabolic" biochemical reactions, what do we mean? Give an example of an anabolic reaction. (You can describe in words, you dont need to show a balanced reaction).
2. Stage 1 of metabolism refers to the beginning of deigestion of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. Where do proteins begin stage 1 digestion? What happens at the beginning of Stage 1 digestion of proteins?
3. Which coenzymes serves as an oxidizing agent in glycolysis?
4. Write the net reaction for glycolysis.
