I learned about glycolysis in school. How does the body generate energy from other molecules?

It's pretty much common sense. I always mix up toluene and xylene degradation though.

Finally, another person with an iq above room temperature. I memorized central metabolism pathways for all model organisms years ago

Glycolysis turns glucose into pyruvate, a 3 carbon intermediate that can be used for aerobic or anaerobic respiration. There are similar pathways for other carbon sources that do the same. Even for lipids, it's convenient for the cell to turn everything into pyruvate

I never had a head for memorizing pathways but I do like the biophysics of metabolism. Y'all got any favorite pathways with weird properties? Stuff like peroxidase breaking diffusion limits
