The metabolic process by which organisms produce sugars (namely glucose) from non-carbohydrate sources such as amino acids and glycerol.
The process of breaking down glucose into pyruvate, releasing energy and pyruvic acid, which is fundamental to cellular respiration.
A hormone produced by the pancreas that regulates blood sugar levels by facilitating the uptake of glucose into tissues
