a. first; second

b. second; third

c. third; sixth

d. sixth; third

36. Glycerol can be converted to carbohydrate through

a. gluconeogenesis

b. beta oxidation

C. glycogenesis

d. oxidative phosphorylation

37. Why do plant-based fats (oils) tend to be liquid at room temperature, unlike animal fats, which are solid at room temperature?

a. Because plant-based oils have higher unsaturated fatty acid content

b. Because plant-based oils have higher saturated fatty acid content.

c. Because plant-based oils have no unsaturated fatty acid content.

d. Because plant-based oils have both unsaturated and saturated fatty acids content.

38. After stored fat is broken down to glycerol and released into the blood stream, it can be used for any of the following EXCEPT

a. build molecules necessary for membranes

b. be oxidized for energy

c. convert to amino acids

d. be stored in body fat for later use

39. When dietary fat enters the small intestine, the releases bile and the

releases lipases.

a. gallbladder; pancreas

b. pancreas; gallbladder

c. liver, pancreas

d. pancreas; liver

40. Chylomicrons are a type of

a. lipoprotein

b. cholesterol

c. triglyceride

d. fatty acid

Answer 1

35. Omega 3 fatty acids have their first double bond at third carbon, while omega 6 fatty acids have their first double bond at the sixth carbon. Option c is the correct answer.

36. Glycerol can be converted to carbohydrate through gluconeogenesis. Option a is the correct answer.

37. Why do plant-based fats tend to be liquid at room temperature, unlike animal fats, which are solid at room temperature? Because plant-based oils have higher unsaturated fatty acid content. Option a is the correct answer.

38. After stored fat is broken down to glycerol and released into the bloodstream, it can be used for any of the following except convert to amino acids. Option c is the correct answer.

39. When dietary fat enters the small intestine, the gallbladder releases bile and the pancreas releases lipase. Option a is the correct answer.

40. Chylomicrons are a type of lipoprotein. Option a is the correct answer.

Answer 2

35. Option C is correct as omega-3 fatty acids have their first double bond on the third carbon atom but the omega-6 fatty acids, have their first double bond at the sixth carbon atom.

36. option A is correct it is gluconeogenesis

37. Option A is correct becuase plant fats have higher unsaturated content hence are liquid at room temperature and the animal fats are having higher saturated content hence are solid at room temperature

38. Option C is corrrect answer

39. option C is correct as bile is released by the liver and stored in the duodenum while pancreatic lipase is released by the pancreas

40. Option A is correct chylomicrons are the type of lipoprotein
