Difference between Futile cycle and Metabolism

Futile cycle vs. Metabolism

A futile cycle, also known as a substrate cycle, occurs when two metabolic pathways run simultaneously in opposite directions and have no overall effect other than to dissipate energy in the form of heat. Metabolism (from μεταβολή metabolē, "change") is the set of life-sustaining chemical transformations within the cells of organisms.

Similarities between Futile cycle and Metabolism

Futile cycle and Metabolism have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Adenosine triphosphate, Catalysis, Enzyme, Gluconeogenesis, Glucose, Glycolysis, Homeostasis, Hydrolysis, Metabolic pathway, Pyruvic acid.

Adenosine triphosphate

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a complex organic chemical that participates in many processes.

Catalysis

Catalysis is the increase in the rate of a chemical reaction due to the participation of an additional substance called a catalysthttp://goldbook.iupac.org/C00876.html, which is not consumed in the catalyzed reaction and can continue to act repeatedly.

Glycolysis

Glycolysis (from glycose, an older term for glucose + -lysis degradation) is the metabolic pathway that converts glucose C6H12O6, into pyruvate, CH3COCOO− + H+.
