Case 1
After breakfast, Glo Cose entered the Glyco Gate Kiosk. She found a Cornetto voucher, which rewards her 2 ATP coins as her starter scoop. At the Lactato Mini Cone (RBCs), the deal was tiny, just 2 scoops and a plain cone. Enough to survive, but nothing fancy. At the Malata Supreme Cone (Liver), the deal was grand: a full 32-scoop ice cream cone, loaded with Glyco Sprinkles and Fat Fudge Toppings for take-out. At the Fadhuz Speed Cone (Muscles), the service was quick, 30 scoops, good for fast energy but not the max.
As Glo enjoyed her cones, a friend tapped her shoulder and asked: “Uy Glo! Dami niyan ah. Hanggang saan aabot Glucose mo?”

Once upon a time, trouble was brewing inside Hiker Joey’s body. He had been stuck in a snowy cabin for 3 days with no food. Initially, Glyco-genie gave him sugar to keep his brain and muscles running, but when he woke up the second day, Glyco-genie was gone!
That’s when O-LIVER, the de-LIVER-y man arrived and shouted, “No carbs? No problem!” He called his companions Gly Hero-I, Sir Alan the Amigo Acid , and Lenny Lactate.
They used their magic to make a new genie, named Gluco-genie, who can rescue Joey and give him great sugar to feed his brain! Even without eating, Joey can stay alert with the help of Gluco-genie.

A. glycolysis
B. gluconeogenesis
C. glycogenolysis

Lee Vur and, Musc Le are all applying in the Mito Cream Factory. Before employment, each of them undergo Glay-Coli-Sees Training where they are paid 2 coins after completion. However after training, Arbi Se was not accepted because they found out that he did not have an O2 Certification. Those that are employed are paid per cycle of their work. (1 NAD/hour = 2.5 coins, 1FAD/hour = 1.5 coins).

What is the advantage of using glycogen-derived gluCOINS on an Energy Vending Machine (Glycolysis) compared to free gluCOINS?
A. Glycogen-derived gluCOINS enters as glucose-6-phosphate, saving 1 ATP.
B. Glycogen-derived gluCOINS enters as fructose-1,6-bisphosphate, skipping two ATP-consuming steps.
C. Glycogen-derived gluCOINS enters glycolysis as pyruvate, bypassing ATP use entirely.
D. Glycogen-derived gluCOINS requires an extra ATP to be phosphorylated.
A. Glycogen-derived gluCOINS enters as glucose-6-phosphate, saving 1 ATP
