Stoffwechselkreislauf
Stoffwechselkreislauf refers to the cyclical processes involved in metabolism within living organisms. It describes how chemical substances are continuously transformed, utilized, and regenerated to maintain life. These cycles are essential for energy production, building and breaking down cellular components, and eliminating waste products. Key examples include the Krebs cycle, also known as the citric acid cycle, which is central to cellular respiration, and the Cori cycle, which plays a role in carbohydrate metabolism between muscles and the liver.
The Stoffwechselkreislauf involves a series of interconnected biochemical reactions. Nutrients absorbed from food are broken down
Intermediates within these cycles are often recycled, meaning they are regenerated after a series of reactions
