Q

How do we get energy from creatine?

A

Transfer its phosphate to ADP to get ATP

20
Q

What is the ratio between quantity of enrgy sources to their availability?

21
Q

Does Slow switch fibers contain small amount of mitochondria?

A

No, it has a lot of them

22
Q

Which process fast switch is specializes at?

A

Lactic fermentation

23
Q

Marathon runners need more slow or fast switch fibers?

A

Slow swich

24
Q

Which enzyme is highly present in fast switch fiber muscles?

A

Lactate dehydrogenase

25
In which state the glucose Alanin occurs?
Starvation
26
During Cori cycle, which metabolic process is been stressed in the muscle?
Glycolysis
27
Which product lS sent out from the muscle to the liver during Cori cycle?
Lactate
28
Which product is sent out from the liver to the muscle during Cori cycle?
Glucose
29
Why do we want to turn pyruvate to lactate during glycolysis?
To earn nad+
30
How turning pyruvate to lactate helps us to do glycolysis?
Because we get more nad+ who is essential for step 6 of glycolysis
31
In case of starvation, who is the first that we want give glucose to
Brain
32
How can we utilize alpha keto acid?
Insert to krebs cycle, In the muscle or make acetyl CoA
33
Which reaction alanine aminotrasterase catalyzes?
Glutamate transfer its amine to pyruvate to get alanine
34
In wich tissue we are able to find a lot of alanine aminotransterase
In the muscle
35
What is the end product of gluconeogenesis?
glucose
36
What are the sources of pyruvate in gluconeogenesis?
Lactate and alanine from the muscle
37
What are the sources of gluconeogenesis?
Lactate, alanine, glutamine, glycerol
38
Can we get glucose from fatty acids
No
39
To which product ketogenic amino acid break?
Acetyl CoA
40
What is the major energy source of the liver
Fatty acids
41
How can we use acetyl coa
Energy (krebs cycle), ketone bodies, build fatty acids
42
How many acetyl coa are there in the original of ketone bodies
2
43
What is the by product of generating ketone bodies
Acetone
44
Does Keto acyl transfer is present in the liver
No
45
Which enzyme breaks down keto bodies and does not present in the liver
Beta ketoacyl coa transferase
