1. Ketone bodies are made in the mitochondrial matrix of liver cells when lipids are limiting.
True or false
#Ketone bodies are made in mitochondrial matrix of liver cell in response to "unavailability of blood glucose"................... hence the above statement is FALSE

Which of the following is/are true of ketone bodies? (Select any/all that apply) Ketone bodies are soluble in blood Ketone bodies are made when carbohydrates are not available for ATP production Ketone bodies are made by liver cells
Chapter 18Ketogenesis and Ketone Bodies Resouroa x previous 22 of 24 Ketogenesis and Ketone Bodies Part B When the body runs out of glucose, the brain, heart, and skeletal muscle can use ketone bodies for their metabolic needs. When this happens, the body switches over to a metabolic state known as ketosis. Ketone bodies are made in the liver by combining acetyl CoA groups together Sort the following molecules based on whether or not they are biologically occurring ketone bodies...
A second hallmark of glycogen-synthase deficiency is high levels of ketone bodies. Which of the following explains this symptom? A) When tissues are starved of glucose, the liver responds by making ketone bodies B) Beta oxidation is intact in these patients. Therefore, the liver of these patients can still readily create the substrate of ketone-body synthesis, acetyl-CoA, despite low levels of pyruvate. C) Since glucogenic intermediates, like pyruvate, are needed for anaplerosis, Krebs intermediates are low. This leads to a...
Hi the automatic grader for my biochemistry assignment is saying im getting things wrong but i cannot figure out which. Please tell me which are wrong with corrected answers. Thanks! DUE AT MIDNIGHT PLEASE HELP ASAP Question 23 (2.5 points) Saved Which of the following is true? Bile salts are amphipathic, which means they can act as an acid or a base. In the intestines, triacylglycerols must be broken down to monoacylglycerol and two fatty acids for transport into intestinal...
When the body runs out of glucose, the brain, heart, and skeletal muscle can use ketone bodies for their metabolic needs. When this happens, the body switches over to a metabolic state known as ketosis. Ketone bodies are made in the liver by combining acetyl CoA groups together. Sort the following molecules based on whether or not they are biologically occurring ketone bodies. Drag each item to the appropriate bin. Bin #1: Biological Ketone Bodies Bin #2: Nonbiological ketones A....
1 points SA Liver cells and smooth muscle cells both possess the BP-adrenergic receptor. Activation of this receptor by circulating adrenaline leads to glycogen breakdown in a liver cell and relaxation in a smooth muscle cell. These different outcomes following interaction with the same initial stimulus can be traced to different intracellular proteins that become engaged in the response in these two types of cells. True False
1 pts Question 11 After absorption, nearly all fructose enters hepatocytes (liver cells) on the first pass and enters glycolysis for energy production, or if consumed in excess will get transformed into triglycerides. True False 1 pts Ouestion 12
Hi the automatic grader for my biochemistry assignment is saying im getting things wrong but i cannot figure out which. Please tell me which are wrong with corrected answers. Thanks! Which of the following is true regarding glycogen metabolism? O Glycogen synthase is activated by phosporylation. Glycogen phosphorylase kinase activates glycogen phosphorylase through phosphorylation. The activation of PKA is downstream of insulin signaling in muscle cells. O Glycogen phosphorylase releases free glucose from the ends of glycogen Question 7 (2.5...
1) Glucose enters human enterocytes (intestinal epithelial cells) against its concentration gradient. A Na+ ion enters the cell with each glucose molecule, and while the glucose transporter does not hydrolyze ATP, it depends on a pre-existing gradient of Na+ ions that is created by the Na+/K+ ATPase. This is an example of ____________. A. primary active uniport B. secondary active antiport C. primary active symport D. secondary active symport 2) Which statement is FALSE? A. Acetyl CoA is oxidized to...
the liver by HDL 17. Ir you have been on a J-day hunger fast to protest the lack of gen control laws in this country.you a. synthesize glycogen in muscles and in the liver b. convert excess glucose into triglyeerides and release the triglyceride as Vi c, transport ehylomicrons to liver and muscle cells d, increase the amount of ketone bodies in your blood e. have lower insulin levles, whieh would inhibit glaconeogenesis 18. An injection of a large amount...
