- The hormone insulin enhances the transport of glucose (sugar) from the blood into most body cells. Its secretion is controlled by a negative-feedback system between the concentration of glucose in the blood and the insulin-secreting cells. Therefore, which of the following statements is correct? A decrease in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn further towers blood glucose concentration. An increase in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn lowers blood glucose concentration. A decrease in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn increases blood glucose concentration. An increase in blood glucose concentration stimulates insulin secretion, which in turn further increases blood glucose concentration. None of the preceding is correct.arrow_forwardWhat is the fate of hydrogen atoms removed from glucose during glycolysis when oxygen is present in muscle cells? How does it compare with the fate ofhydrogen atoms removed from glucose when the amount of available oxygen is insufficient to support aerobic respiration?arrow_forwardWhich of the following is an active form of glucose to initiate the process of glycogenesis? Select one: a. AMP glucose b. Glucose-1-phosphate c. UDP glucose d. Adenosyl glucosearrow_forward
- Although rabbits cannot digest the cellulose in their all-plant diet, bacteria that live in their cecum can. However, to make full use of the nutrients released by bacterial action, a rabbit must produce and eat a special type of feces. Why must the rabbit reswallow this material to obtain the nutrients released by bacterial action?Some people who have gallstones experience pain after they eat, with fatty meals causing the greatest discomfort. Why do such meals trigger gallbladder pain? Diabetes insipidus is a medical disorder in which a person produces an unusually large amount of highly dilute urine. Some cases are caused by a gene mutation, but in most people, diabetes insipidus arises after a head injury. Explain how an injury to the head could affect kidney function.Marine mammals and desert rodents both have highly efficient kidneys that produce only a tiny amount of very concentrated urine. What selective pressure shaped this trait in both animals?arrow_forwardIn the Alanine Cycle, different organs work together to produce glucose from protein. Which statement below best describes what happens in which organ? a)In liver, pyruvate is transaminated to alanine; in the muscle, alanine is deaminated and pyruvate is used for ATP synthesis. b)In muscle, pyruvate is transaminated to alanine; in the liver, alanine is deaminated and pyruvate is used for gluconeogenesis. c)The liver exports glucose for use by the brain; in the muscle, alanine is deaminated by the urea cycle for use in ATP generation. d)In muscle, pyruvate is transaminated to alanine; in the liver, alanine enters the urea cycle for excretion.arrow_forwardThe reason you breathe heavily while exercising is that your body is trying to take in oxygen to fuel aerobic respiration and generate enough ATP to replenish the ATP you use during exercise. If you are exercising vigorously, the need for ATP might be greater than the amount of oxygen you can inhale. In this situation, your body cells generate ATP through lactate fermentation. As you continue vigorous exercise, your muscles might begin to "burn," causing you to stop and rest. This burning sensation is the result of a chemical buildup in your muscle cells. Based on this information, which of the following chemicals likely causes pain in over-exercised muscles? A. Lactate B. NADH C. Ethanolarrow_forward
- During the FEED cycle, the two major effects of INSULIN on the liver involves ____. Select one: a. glucose consumption (glycolysis and glycogen synthesis), fatty Acid and TAG synthesis b. glucose release and fatty acid synthesis c. TAG and fatty acid degradation d. gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysisarrow_forwardWhich of the following statements about glucose metabolism is correct? A. Glucagon increases the rate of glycolysis B. Glycolysis requires NADP+ C. In glycolysis, glucose is cleaved into two three-carbon product D. The end-product of glycolysis in red blood cells is pyruvate E. Glycogen is synthesized in the liver in response to insulin and exported to other tissues for use as a metabolic fuelarrow_forwardThrough anaerobic repsiration, cellular pyruvic acid is converted to? A. Lactic acid B. Glucose C. ATP D. Fatty acidsarrow_forward
- Athletes often use whey products to prepare for competition because whey proteins: Group of answer choices are mild stimulants that produce alertness and reduce reaction time provide all the essential amino acids needed to build new muscle tissue elevate testosterone and estrogen in the blood of male and female athletes, respectively produce rapid weight loss by burning excess body fat and sparing glycogen produce free radicals that promote many of the body's beneficial responses to exercisearrow_forwardhGH is an important part of fat metabolism, muscle development, and bone growth. Synthetic hGH can be used to treat children and adults suffering from hGH deficiency. More recently, competitive athletes have began taking hGH in an attempt to improve athletic performance. The use of hGH for athletics is banned by many major sporting organizations. A recent study of 44 athletes who took daily injections of hGH over 20 days showed that, on average, the athletes gained 4.2 lbs of muscle, but the gain in muscle did not translate to increased athletic performance.Evaluate each statement regarding the use of hGH by competitive athletes to determine whether the statement is an example of an ethical, economical, societal, or environmental issue. Athletes who play professional sports should be encouraged to take synthetic hormones to improve performance because their job is to win. Athletes who took hGH did not improve their sport performance but did improve their appearance and marketability.…arrow_forwardIn order to use lipids to produce ATP the first step is beta oxidation of fatty acids which occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell TRUE or FALSE If glucose stores are getting low, non-carbohydrate molecules such as lipids and proteins will be used to make ATP. This is referred to as glucose sparing TRUE or FALSE Our dietary source of carbohydrates comes predominantly from plants. TRUE or FALSE Essential nutrients can be produced in the liver by the interconversion of different macromolecules in the liver. TRUE or FALSE The major lipid in the american diet is triglycerides. TRUE or FALSE All proteins from animal products are complete proteins. TRUE or FALSEarrow_forward
