Yes, glycerol can be converted into glucose through a process called gluconeogenesis where the glycerol molecule is converted to pyruvate and then to glucose in the liver and kidneys. This process allows the body to use glycerol, obtained from triglycerides, as a source of glucose for energy production when needed.
No, glucose is a sugar. And a carbohydrate. Google sugar.
Approximately 10-15% of triglycerides cannot be converted to glucose. These triglycerides are primarily stored in adipose tissue and are used for energy production through beta-oxidation in the liver, rather than being converted to glucose.
Fats are made of an alcohol called glycerol.
No, wax is not made out of glycerol. Wax is typically made of esters, fatty acids, and alcohols, while glycerol is a sugar alcohol used in various applications such as personal care products and food.
glycerol. Glycerol serves as the backbone to which the three fatty acids are attached in a triglyceride molecule.
Yes, glucose is stored in the body as glycerol. When the body needs more glucose it will convert some glycerol into glucose and put it into the bloodstream. No, glucose is not stored in the body as glycerol. It is stored in the body as glycogen. Glycerol is the backbone of triglycerides, and in order to be used for energy, It must be converted into glycerol-3-phosphate, after that may enter the pathway of glycolysis, or may enter the process of gluconeogenesis (generation of glucose from non-carbohydrates source).
Glucose is made in the body through the process of gluconeogenesis, where molecules such as amino acids, lactate, and glycerol are converted into glucose in the liver. This process occurs when blood glucose levels are low and the body needs to produce glucose to maintain energy levels.
No. Sugars are carbohydrates, such as glucose. These are made of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen and are usually found in a ring structure.
it is anabolic process

In certain organisms including Eukaryotic cells, glycerol produced in the metabolism act as a reserved energy. When the the cells lack in glucose, the stored fat will be digested to form glycerol and fatty acid by the liver's enzyme, resulting in an increase in glycerol and fatty acid in the blood stream. In addition, some cases glucose can be turned to form glucose by liver via glycolysis or gluconeogenesis depending on physiological property of the cells
