Need help, please. In this scenario, a patient has beriberi. Beriberi patients can be treated through a thiamine-enriched diet. The patient was put on a thiamine-enriched diet but not all of their symptoms were alleviated. Through genetic testing, it was found that there was also a small defect in pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase that decreases its normal activity.   1. Explain why this genetic defect can cause beriberi symptoms (i.e. high  pyruvate levels after a high-carb meal).     2. Why did thiamine supplementation not alleviate the symptoms for this  patient?
Select the best answer. What pathways generate reduced cofactors (NADH or FADH2) for the Electron Transport Chain to use? 1. Glycolysis 2. Gluconeogenesis 3. Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Complex Reaction 4. Citric Acid Cycle 5. Fatty Acid β-Oxidation   Question 18 options:   1, 3, 4   2, 3, 4   1, 3, 4, 5   2, 3, 4, 5   1, 2, 3, 4, 5
