Amino acids
Assimilation in liver
When short supply of glucose&
glycogen occurs, liver converts amino
acids glucose
Assimilation in the cells
Glucose
Amino acids have to pass - Glucose in liver for

through liver before reach respiration

blood circulatory system Glucose glycogen (in liver)
Liver synthesizes plasma

proteins frm amino acids
Plasma proteins = for blood When blood sugar level falls, body

clotting, osmoregulation

needs energy : glycogen glucose
- Once glycogen store in liver

is full (excess glucose lipid

)by liver
- Excess amino acids cannot be
stored in body, broken down

in liver deamination
- Urea produced and
transported to kidneys to be
excreted

- Amino acids enter cells for Glucose molecules reach body

synthesis of new protoplasm cells oxidised release energy
& repair of damaged tissues during cellular respiration
- Important building block

synthesis enzymes and -energy for muscle contraction,
synthesis of proteins
hormones

- A.acids synthesis proteins of Excess glucose stored as glycogen in
plasma membranes muscles
