What is a glucogenic amino acid? correct answers - amino acids that are catabolized to pyruvate or an intermediate of the TCA cycle - can be used for glucose synthesis What is a ketogenic amino acid? correct answers - amino acids that are catabolized to acetyl CoA or acetoacetate - cannot give rise to the net synthesis of glucose but rather lead to the formation of fatty acids, ketone bodies, or their precursors Which amino acids are exclusively ketogenic? correct answers - leucine - ly...
