You're lucky. You don't have to know the enzyme names that do all of this.

My first thought is it was the Maynard G. Krebs cycle. Something about which I didn't care to know. Remember, the G. is silent, and stands for Walter.

We were learning it (I was glossing over then swiftly forgetting it). This and photosynthesis (okay and my serious procrastination / laziness) are what gave me a D in AP Bio (weighted i think)...

Before I even saw the title of the post I recognized the picture as the Krebs Cycle. That was the hardest thing to learn in A&P and it remains in the background, but I'm always cognizant of it to some degree.

Cause that is utterly fascinating right there.
