Physiology and biochemistry

The study of the flow and its transformations within a living system is called:    

Bioenergetics

The sum of all the biochemical processes going on in the human body at any given time is called:      

Metabolism

For glycolysis to proceed which of the following need not be present:

Acetyl-CoA

Why is it necessary to phosphorylate a glucose molecule creating glucose 6-phosphate

To trap the glucose molecule within the cell

Glycolysis yield to molecules of pyruvate what happens to pyruvate following its production

In the presence of oxygen it enters then mitochondria 

In glycolysis each molecule of glucose that is catabolised gives a net yield of how many molecules of ATP

2

The first step in the sequence of enzymatic reactions in the citric acid cycle is the formation of what

Citric acid

Which of the following are Co enzymes that deliver hydrogen ions and electrons to the electron transport chain in the inner mitochondrial membrane

NADH and FADH2

Oxygen is an important molecule in what    

Citric acid cycle and Electron transport chain

The end products of aerobic respiration are:

Carbon dioxide, water, ATP

During Lipolosis 

Triglycerides are broken down into glycerol and fatty acids

All of the following are true of beta oxidation apart from what:   It requires coenzyme A NAD and FA It yields large amounts of ATP Lipids are converted in to glycogen molecules Fatty acids break down into two carbon fragments It occurs in the mitochondria  

Lipids are converted into glycogen molecules 

what process occur during Beta oxidation

Fatty acids are converted in to molecules of Acetyl-CoA

During the absorptive state

The liver forms Glycogen

The condition where the blood PH drops because of Ketone bodies in the blood is called 

Ketoacidosis 

Factors that influence an individuals BMR does not include
