Epinephrine causes muscles to contract and the heart and lungs to increase respiration and blood flow. In combination with epinephrine causing glucose production and secretion from the liver, how does epinephrine elicit a system wide response?
Multiple Choice
A.) Glucose provides energy for muscle contractions, which are stimulate by high concentrations of oxygen. Oxygen is provided by the increase in respiration and blood flow.
B.) Glucose provides energy for muscle contractions, resulting in high levels of pyruvic acid. The pyruvic acid is flushed from the muscle cells by the increase in respiration and blood flow.
C.) Muscle contractions require copious amounts of ATP, which is produced by the oxidation of glucose. Oxygen is provided by the increase of respiration and blood flow.
D.) Oxygen stimulates muscle contraction, and is supplied to the muscles by the increase in respiration and blood flow. ATP provides the energy for muscle contractions, and is formed in the liver when glucose is converted to glycogen.
Homework Answers
Answer is C:
Muscle contractions require copious amounts of ATP, which is produced by the oxidation of glucose. Oxygen is provided by the increase of respiration and blood flow.
Epinephrine or adrenalin is a hormone & neurotransmitter. Epinephrine is normally produced by both the adrenal glands and certain neurons. It plays an important role in the fight-or-flight response by increasing blood flow to muscles, output of the heart, pupil dilation, and blood sugar.

To prepare for the cross-country meet, a skier decides to significantly increase the amount of carbohydrates in his diet (a technique also known as carbohydrate loading). Why might this be beneficial to the cross-country skier? Check all that apply.The liver can store copious amounts of ingested carbohydrates as glycogen, which can then be slowly broken down to release the glucose needed to fuel aerobic respiration.As long as oxygen is present, the glucose stored in the ingested carbohydrates can provide a steady...

26. Why did Jessie’s carnitine deficiency cause her to have abnormally low plasma glucose levels at the end of a fasting study, when compared to a healthy person who has fasted for the same length of time? In the absence of carnitine, the liver stores large amounts of glycogen; absorption of glucose to create these stores depletes blood glucose Carnitine acts as a hormone and stimulates glucose release from the liver; lack of carnitine results in loss of hepatic glucose...
