39) stored energy. is (are) the most abundant form of fats in our body and is (are) a good source of 40) T/F Glycogen, the storage form of glucose, is primarily stored in skeletal muscle and liver cells.

Certain low-carb, high-protein diets call for eating large amounts of protein hydrolysate. This strategy can be dangerous, because while body weight can drop quickly, this is largely due to water loss, rather than fatty acid oxidation. Why might this diet approach end up with so much water being lost?

fill in the blanks Glycogen is built from the protein scaffold (             ) with glucose forming a glycosidic bond with the amino acid (              ).

Would substituting fiber and complex carbohydrates (larger % cellulose) for the simple sugars and starches (high sucrose and amylose/amylopectin) help Morgan lose weight, why? Yes, because complex carbohydrates like cellulose are largely indigestible so they pass through               the digestive tract without being absorbed. Yes, cellulose contains less glucose residues than amylose or amylopectin. Yes, because the fructose in sucrose is much more responsible for weight gain than the glucose. No, because cellulose, amylose, and amylopectin are all composed of glucose so it doesn’t               matter.

Briefly explain why chicken fat, which largely consists of various triacylglycerols, has such a higher energy content per mole compared to sucrose.

Lipids are highly oxidized molecules, so they can be greatly reduced for energy during catabolism (degradation). True Or False

Back in the 1930s, a chemical called DNP (2,4-Dinitrophenol) was prescribed as a weight loss pill. Describe how DNP is a metabolic poison , and why it was thought to be a good mechanism for weight loss?
