glycolysis
|
|
CHO absorbed from the diet and is stored as glycogen undergoes
a) glycogenesis b) glycolysis c) gloconeogenesis d) none |
glycogenesis -> transformed into fat
|
|

gluconeogenesis
occurs in LV- synth sugar from protein and glycogen breakdown |
|
insulin is composed of ___ number of chains
|
2 chains
a&b linked by c |
|
function of insulin
|
lower blood sugar
|
|
regulation of insulin
|
blood sugar concentration
|
|
insulin is metabolized and destroyed in
a) LV b) KD c) SP d) Pancreas |
LV, KD
|
|
true statement about insulin
a) promotes glycogenolysis b) promotes glyconeogenesis c) promotes protein syth d) all |
promo protein synth
also: promo fat synth from glucose inhibit gluconeogenesis promo glucose uptake by beta cells decrease Blood Sugar |
|
Function of Glucagon
|
increase Blood Sugar
|
|
True for Both Insulin and Glucagon
a) Promo fat synth b) create ketone bodies c) regulated by blood sugar concentration d) composed of 2 chains |
regulated by blood sugar concentration
Insulin- uptake glucose into Beta Cells Glucagon- stim alpha cells in pancreas to release glycogen->glucose |
|
Where is Glucagon Metabolized
a) LV b) KD c) SP d) Pancreas |
LV only
|
|
mechanism of glucagon
|
increase blood sugar via trigger alpha cells in pancreas to release glycogen-> glucose
|
|
Functions of Glucagon
|
increase BS
-promo glycogenolysis -promo gluconeogenesis -promo lipolysis-> ketone bodies -promo protein breakdown |
|
increases blood sugar
a) insulin b) glucagon c) catecholamines d) all |
gulcagon
catecholamines |
|
_____regulates catecholamines
|
stress
fight/flight |
|
what is the mechanism of catecholamines
|
inhibit insulin release
promo glucogenolysis mobilize FA from adipose tissue |
|
not a mechanism of catecholamines
a) inhibit glucagon b) inhibit glycogenolysis c) promo fat synth d) none |
none are mechanisms of catecholamines
Catecholamines inhibit insulin promo glycogenolysis mobilze FAs |
|
what inhibits GH
a) insulin, hi BS b) glucagon, lo BS c) glucagon, hi BS d) insulin, lo BS |
insulin
hi BS |
|
Increases GH
a) Hi BS b) Lo BS c) Stress d) none |
Lo BS- peaks at nite
Stresses |
|
antagonizes insulin
a) catecholamine b) beta cells c) ACTH d) GH |
GH
- antag insulin - increase protein synth - mobilize fat |
|
Mechanisms of GH
|
antag insulin
increase protein synth mobilize fat |
|
T/F
Catecholamines and GH mobilze FAs |
True
|
|
regulated by stresses
a) catecholamine b) GH c) glucocorticoid d) All |
ALL
|
|
Increases BS
a) insulin b) glucagon c) catecholamine d) glucocorticoid |
All EXCEPT insulin
|
|
T/F
glucocorticoid is regulated by hyperglycemia |
F
Hypoglycemia glucocorticoid increases BS |
|
Mechansism of Glucocorticoid
|
stim gluconeogenesis
reduce tissue use of glucose |
|
pathology of type 1 diabetes
|
complete lack of insulin
|
|
pathology of type II diabetes
|
hi or normal insulin then no insulin
|
|
pathology of gestational diabetes
|
combo of insulin xu and resistance
|
|
cause of type 1 diabetes
a) overweight b) drugs c) pancreatic disease d) autoimmune |
autoimmune - destruction of beta cells
|
