Q. 18.2 - An Introduction to General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry

Question

What stages of catabolism involves the conversion of small molecules into $C{O}_2,H_{2}O$ and energy for synthesis of ATP.

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The breakdown of fat in adipose tissue to fatty acids, and the oxidative deamination of neurotransmitters by monoamine oxidase. 

Step 1: Given information

We have to find the stage as we know there are four stages.

Step 2: Explanation

Glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, the oxidative deamination of neurotransmitters by monoamine oxidase, the breakdown of muscle protein to use amino acids as gluconeogenesis substrates, the breakdown of fat in adipose tissue to fatty acids, and the breakdown of fat in adipose tissue to fatty acids are all catabolic processes.The third stage is composed of.The digesting stage is the initial stage. Major organic molecules including proteins, lipids, and polysaccharides are digested outside of cells into their smaller components. In the third stage, energy is stored.
