Hor much fuel does a small commercial aircraft (737, A320, Embraer) consume during the stages of flight?

I'm guessing that takeoff and landing are more fuel intensive per mile that cruising. And I would also ume that fuel consumption may be different on long (40,000 ft cruising altitude) vs. short routes (20,000 ft cruising altitude). So, I'm looking for that breakdown of fuel consumption at takeoff, cruising, landing on long vs short routes.
