- Cyanide is a highly toxic molecule. It bonds to a cytochrome in the electron transport chain located in the mitochondria, rendering the electron transport chain useless. The ingestion of cyanide, therefore, results in death due to which of the following? a) Starvation, due to an inability to create glucose. b) Build up of lactic acid. c) Inability to take in oxygen through the lungs. d) Cellular death from lack of energy.arrow_forwardHemoglobin glycation (so named to distinguish it from glycosylation, which is the enzymatic transfer of glucose to a protein) is a non-enzymatic process that involves reaction of the N-terminal amino group of hemoglobin and glucose. The amount of glycated hemoglobin (GHB) is usually about 5% of total hemoglobin (and corresponds to a blood glucose concentration of 120 mg/100 mL). However, in people with untreated diabetes this value may be as high as 13%, which indicates an average blood level of about 300 mg/100 mL -dangerously high. One of the aims of insulin therapy is to maintain GHB values of about 7%.

- All 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_forwardIn 2-page worth of words (around 500), discuss in depth the risks and hazards of CYCLAMATE in the body.

BPA-free plastics are often manufactured with a related compound, bisphenol S (BPS), which has effects similar to BPA. Imagine you are part of a group lobbying for increased control of BPA and BPS in manufactured products. How would you best summarize the results of this study to help support your case? A. I read a study once that said BPA was bad. B. A 1998 study from Case Western University proved that BPA causes birth defects. C. A 1998 study found that increasing exposure to BPA-leaching plastic sources increased the percentage of abnormalities in mouse oocytes, which could lead to an increased risk of birth defects. D.
