Do carbs equal energy

[miss usa]

I was looking at a couple of the post made here and i came across these terms could you please explain them

• Glucogenesis
• Gluconeogenesis
• Glycogenolysis

Thanks i think it has to do with carb conversion from reading the energy metabolism thread.

Glycogenesis is glycogen synthesis from glucose ( glucose -> glycogen)

Gluconeogenesis is glucose synthesis largely from structural components of noncarbohydrate (CHO) nutrients (protein -> glucose)

Glycogenolysis is the glucose formation from glycogen (glycogen -> glucose)
