Lactose in milk is hydrolyzed, absorbed through the intestines, and then utilized for
energy metabolism. Oligosaccharides that are not hydrolyzed in the digestive tract
cannot be absorbed nor used for energy. Choose the best explanation for why
these oligosaccharides would be necessary in human milk (or infant formula).
A) These oligosaccharides prevent weight gain
in infants.
B) These oligosaccharides absorb excess
energy, allowing infants to sleep.
C) These oligosaccharides train the digestive
tract to tolerate high levels of sugars, necessary
for a typical adult American diet.
D) These oligosaccharides provide fiber and
prevent constipation.
(a) What is protein turnover? Give 1-2 examples.
(b) What are the main differences between glucogenic and ketogenic amino acids?
Enzymes that digest lipids are produced by what organs?
