Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glycolysis is the process of breaking down glucose for energy, which would be active in leg muscle cells during intense activity like running. Gluconeogenesis, on the other hand, is the process of generating glucose from non-carbohydrate sources and occurs in the liver to maintain blood glucose levels, especially during prolonged exercise or stress.
