A patient with pancreatic cancer has increased glucagon secretion. Which of the following would you expect this to cause? 1) decreased glycolysis 2) increased glycogen storage 3) decreased insulin secretion 4) increased blood glucose

How does the body obtain most of the glucose it uses for energy?a) From foods containing carbohydrateb) From fatc) From water

Select the best answer or answers from the choices given: A person has been on a hunger strike for seven days. Compared to normal, he has (a) increased release of fatty acids from adipose tissue, and ketosis, (b) elevated glucose concentration in the blood, (c) increased plasma insulin concentration, (d) increased glycogen synthase (enzyme) activity in the liver.

What are the 3 macronutrients and how do each provide energy to the body? Define the fed, post-absorptive, fasting, and starved states. Outline changes in the utilization of glucose, fatty acids, amino acids, and ketone bodies as the body transitions from the fed state to the prolonged starvation state. Describe the impacts of insulin, glucagon, epinephrine, and cortisol on CHO, lipid, and protein metabolism. Describe the major pathways that occur in the liver, muscle, adipose tissue. Describe which hormones exercise tends to increase and potential impacts on pathways we’ve discussed. Describe the cori cycle and the glucose-alanine cycle. Describe differences in primary fuel sources by exercise intensity. Describe classical vs moderate CHO loading in preparation for competition in trained athletes.   Simple to the point answers please!

Insulin: A) Lowers the blood sugar B)  All these answers are correct C) Helps maintain homeostasis D) Facilitates cellular glucose uptake from the blood E) Is released during feasting or the absorptive state

Ann is a 64-year-old diabetic who recently experienced the death of her mother. Now she is caring for her father, who is demanding and becoming confused.

Arlene is a 16-year old soccer player. She is a mid-field player who needs speed and endurance. She has decreased her carbohydrate intake to 40% of total calories in an effort to decrease weight. She notes fatigue in the middle of her 2 to 3-hour practices and weekend games, which affects her performance. Arlene does not like the taste of sports drinks and wishes to find an alternative. Juice leaves her feeling nauseous and with stomach cramps. Your discussion response must answer/provide the following: a. In your own words, discuss the causes of fatigue in an athlete who is on a low- carbohydrate diet. b. Discuss the dietary suggestions you might give to this athlete to get her back to peak performance.

A nutrient that cannot be made by the body in sufficient quantities and that must be obtained from food is a/an:
