Catabolism of Proteins & Fats Lecture Materials

These are the Metabolism: Catabolism of Proteins & Fats Lecture materials of the Virtual Cell Biology Classroom. The resources below are used to supplement an actual college cell biology course. Anyone taking, teaching or interested in biology may find these materials helpful and is welcome to use them.

Virtual Cell Biology
Classroom







You have free access to a large collection of materials used in a college-level introductory Cell Biology Course. The Virtual Cell Biology Classroom provides a wide range of free educational resources including Power Point Lectures, Study Guides, Review Questions and Practice Test Questions.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
These lecture learning objectives are a study guide based on the VCBC Catabolism of Proteins & Fats Lecture PowerPoint:

  • ​What other main types of organic molecules go through the biochemichal pathways of cellular respiration?
  • How do protein molecules enter the catabolic biochemical pathways of aerobic respiration? 
  • How must proteins be processed or changed in order to enter the pathways of aerobic respiration?
  • How do fat molecules enter the catabolic biochemical pathways of aerobic respiration?
  • How must fats be processed or changed in order to enter the pathways of aerobic respiration?

LECTURE POWERPOINT
Versions of Aerobic Respiration PPT: 
​Printing: 
The best way for students to print out the PowerPoint Show is to download the PDF version. Select Print, and, when the Print screen comes up, go to the Print Handling options. Under Page Scaling, select "Multiple pages per sheet", Under Pages per sheet, select "2". That uses up less paper, placing two slides on each page.

CATABOLISM OF PROTEINS & FATS HOMEWORK
Word document of a single essay question given to students at the end of lecture. This tool helps the students review the main messages of the lecture while allowing the instructor to assess the class' understanding of the material.

​REQUIRED READINGS
Here is what you need to read, in addition to the PowerPoint, to master this topic. Check Moodle for additional readings.
​​
PRACTICE TEST & REVIEW QUESTIONS
These multiple choice / matching practice test questions and essay review questions are designed to help you better understand the material from this lecture. ​

METABOLISM PROJECT ASSIGNMENT
Word document instructions for writing a paper on the relationship between metabolism and nutrition. Allows students to choose one of three options. The Calorie King website has a food database to help you with finding grams of carbohydrates, fiber, protein & fats of common food items, for Option 1 of this project.
