In the intestines

Question 2

Answer 2

Oligopeptidase

Question 3

Whey can we use amino acids for storing or utilizing energy

Answer 3

When we have excessive amount of proteins or in case of starvation or diabetes

Question 4

What are the proteins that are first to be degraded in case of starvation

Answer 4

Proteins within the muscle

Question 5

Which two processes happens in the liver in case of starvation

Answer 5

Getting rid of non-essential proteins and breakdown of triacylglycerol

Question 6

In which case we won’t breakdown amino acids?

Answer 6

When we would like to recycle them

Question 7

Where does breakdown of amino acids to urea occure

Answer 7

In the liver

Question 8

Which enzyme catalyses the transfer of amino group from alpha - amino acid to alphaketoglutarate

Answer 8

Aminotransferase

Question 9

To Which amino acid alpha ketoglutarate turns when she gets an amino group

Answer 9

Glutamate

Question 10

Which Call factor takes the amin group

Answer 10

PLP

Question 11

What is left when the amine group is taken from the L amino acid by aminotransferase

Answer 11

Alpha Quito acid

Question 12

What is the name of the first reaction of breakdown of amino acids

Answer 12

Transamination

Question 13

What is the name of the step when the amine group is released from that glutamate

Answer 13

Deamination

Question 14

Which cells can make the step of transamination

Answer 14

All The cells in our body

Question 15

Does all the cells can make that step off transamination and urea cycle

Answer 15

No , only the liver because other cells Cant release ammonium via the urine and the cell can be toxicated by the ammonia

Question 16

Which amino acid transport amine group from the cells of the body to the liver

Answer 16

Alanine

Question 17

Where does the alanine cycle occur

Answer 17

In the muscle

Question 18

To whom glutamate transport it’s amine group

Answer 18

To pyruvate

Question 19

Which products do we get when glutamate transport it’s amine group to pyruvate

Answer 19

‘Alanine

Question 20

Which enzyme catalyzes the reaction of transporting the amine group flight from glutamate to pyruvate

Answer 20

Alanine aminotransferase

Question 21

Where does the glutamine cycle occur

Answer 21

In the muscle cells and other cells in our body

Question 22

What can be the origin of free ammonia ion?

Answer 22

Amino acid that does not undergoes transamination and other molecules contain nitrogen lake nucleotides

Question 23

In which case is there is a high activity of the urea cycle

Answer 23

Starvation and high-protein diet

Question 24

What are the substrates off the Urea cycle

Answer 24

Carbamoyl phosphate and aspertate

Question 25

What are the products of the urea cycle

Answer 25

Fumarate and urea
