- Please answer these biochemistry questions and briefly explain 1. Which is false about metabolic regulation? A: reactions with a large negative delta G are likely to be regulated B: reactions that require ATP are regulated C: glucagon and epineprine both stimulate glycogen breakdown D: all steps of all metabolic processes under strict regulation I picked D since all steps require sple extent of regulation however, "strict" regulation is limited to the irreversible steps 2. which is not a redox reaction in electron transport chain?

Blood Glucose levels are normal *Glucose-6 phosphate, *fructose-6 phosphate, *fructose-1,6 biphosphate, *glyceraldehyde-3 phosphate, *1,3-biphosphoglycerate, and *phosphoenolpyruvate levels are ALL increased Pyruvate, ATP, and RBC concentration are all at a decreased levelarrow_forward
- You are a genetic analyst and you have a patient with inherited defects of glycolysis. Specifically, this patient has severe symptoms that stem from issues in their erythrocytes (red blood cells). You find that your patient has a deficiency in Hexokinase (HK). Given this information and keeping in mind what you learned about the steps of glycolysis, bisphosphoglycerate (BPG), and the importance of 2,3 BPG for hemoglobin oxygen binding what do you predict will be the effect of this mutation? Select all that apply. decreased 2,3BPG concentrations reduced flow of metabolites through glycolysis increased 2,3BPG concentrations increased flow of metabolites through glycolysis decreased hemoglobin oxygen affinity increased hemoglobin oxygen affinity 000000arrow_forwardWhat is glycogenesis?

She and her family are concerned and ask the following questions. Based on what you know about skeletal muscle glycogenolysis and muscle metabolism, please respond to each question with a thoughtful answer that describes the metabolism in these various scenarios in language that your patient will understand, while also being sure to include the role of the relevant metabolic pathways, specific enzymes, and stimulus for their activity: I’m not sure I understand the issue. Can you explain how muscle glycogen is used normally during exercise? I really like to take long walks; will Istill be able to do this with my friends? As a result of this deficiency, will I need to get up at night to eat to maintain my blood glucose levels? Do I need to worry about producing excessive lactate during intense anaerobic exercise?arrow_forward
