- Metabolic ketoacidosis is a common problem with diabetics, which is caused by which of the following? Excessive oxidation of fatty acids, leading to an accumulation of ketone bodies in the blood. Excessive oxidation of glucose, leading to an accumulation of ketone bodies in the blood. Excessive oxidation of proteins, leading to an accumulation of ammonia in the blood. Hyperglycemia.arrow_forwardAll of the following statements about glucose are true except: Glucose is metabolized in the cytoplasm of prokaryotic organisms. On a low-carb diet, keto acids from glucogenic amino acids will be used to synthesize glucose. Glucose is metabolized in the mitochondria of mature red blood cells. Under non-starvation conditions, the brain relies exclusively on glucose as its fuel source.arrow_forwardα-Ketoglutarate is converted into: pyruvate that is part of alanine synthesis. glutamate that is part of alanine synthesis. alanine by a reaction with oxaloacetate. alanine by transfer of an NH3 group. glutamate by a reaction with oxaloacetate.arrow_forward
- Which of the following processes would happen on a large scale during starvation (and not in a person who eats regularly)? Chylomicrons deliver lipids to adipose (fat) cells Gluconeogenesis in the liver and kidney; glucose is secreted into blood Protein catabolism in muscle cells; liberated amino acids are funneled into the Krebs cycle Triglycerides previously stored in adipose tissue undergo lipolysis; glycerol is used by the liver for gluconeogenesisarrow_forwardAll of the following statements about amino acid metabolism in humans are true except: The process metabolizes both essential and nonessential amino acids. The process removes the a-amine group from an amino acid. The urea cycle generates arginine, a nonessential amino acid. The urea cycle is unusual in that no ATP is produced or hydrolyzed.arrow_forwardCarnitine shuttle is used to Transport FA chains from the adipose tissue to the liver. Transport FA chains from the blood-stream to the cytosol. Transport FA chains from the cytosol to the mitochondrial matrix. Transport FA chains from the mitochondrial matrix to the cytosol.arrow_forward
- Which statement about steroids is TRUE? Cytochrome P450 monooxygenase introduces oxygen atoms into calcitriol. Cytochrome c oxidase requires cholesterol for full activity. All classes of steroid hormones have a different number of carbon atoms. Cholesterol is excreted from the organism only in the form of bile salts. All steroids are usually hydrophilic, so they can be transported without the help of lipoprotein particles.arrow_forwardDiabetic patients may experience elevated levels of ketogenesis which, in turn, leads to acidosis. The acidosis will trigger hyperventilation. Why? The patient is able to take in a greater amount of oxygen with hyperventilation. Hyperventilation allows increased expiration of carbon dioxide and water. Hyperventilation allows increased expiration of the ketone bodies. The increased contractions of respiratory muscles used during hyperventilation. decreases the amount of acid produced in the body. Hyperventilation has no effect on acid-base homeostasis and is only used as a clinical sign for diagnosis.arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements regarding ketone body formation is not true? O the two other ketone bodies are derived from acetoacetate O ketone bodies are formed in the liver and circulated to other tissues in the body O ketone bodies are essentially soluble forms of fatty acids that can be used for energy O ketone bodies are not the preferred energy source for any type of tissue in the human bodyarrow_forward
