13
Q

Is glucose oxidized or reduced during glycolysis?

A

Oxidized, because it loses the H+ and goes to NADH

14
Q

What are the 2 possible steps of glycolysis?

A

Glucose turns into 2 pyruvic acids OR

IF NO OXYGEN IS AVAILABLE the pyruvic acid turns into lactic acid

16
Q

How many ATP & NADH is produced in the formation of acetylCoA?

A

No ATP

2 NADH

17
Q

How many ATP & NADH are produced in the krebs cycle?

A

6 NADH
2 ATP
ALSO 2 FADH2
AND 4 CO2

18
Q

What is chemiosmosis

A

When the H+ produced moves to the cristae of the mitochondria from the matrix, making the cristae high in acidity. The H+ is pushed back with ADPase, making ATP

19
Q

Where is H2O made and how many?

A

In the ETC, 6

20
Q

What is made in the ETC?

A

34 ATP

6 H2O

21
Q

Define Gluconeogenesis

A

Where glucose is made from non carbohydrate sources when glucose levels are low.

22
Q

Ketogenesis

A

AcetylCoA are produced from fats, they bind creating ketones

23
Q

Define keto acidosis

A

Elevated number of ketones

24
Q

Define ketones

A

Ketones are made when fats are catabolism’s to create ATP (chains of acetylCoA)

25
Define urea
Excess amino groups that are removed in the liver and converted to a molecule
26
Define absorptive state
The four hours after a meal where food is absorbed and stored
27
Postabsorptive state
When no food is taken in, the stored food is used for ATP
28
What hormone is made during the absorptive state?
Insulin bc it provides glucose for consumption
29
3 lipoproteins
Chylomicrons HDL LDL
30
4 functions of the liver
Make bile Filter blood Clotting factors Stores iron
31
BMR defined
The rate at which the body consumes oxygen at rest
32
Name 4 characteristics of enzymes
Speed up reactions Catalyzes only 1 reaction Has optimal pH and temp Works by lock and key reaction
33
Define beta oxidation
Where fatty acids can be broken down and turned into acetylCoAs
34
Can fatty acids be turned into glucose?
No, bc In B- oxidation, it happens in the formation is acetylCoA & that is no reversible.
35
What do ketones in the body indicate?
Lipolysis is happening frequently in the body, which is the breakdown of fats
36
Define demination
Removing a NH2 group, takes it to the liver
37
The absorptive state uses what process with glucose
Glucogenesis (stores glucose as glycogen)
38
The post absorptive state uses what process with glucose
Glycogenoylsis(glycogen to glucose) | Gluconeogenesis(glucose from non carb sources)
