Document Summary
Hn&f 171; test 2; study guide: chapters 4, 5, 6 & 7. I would know/study a little bit about each of the listed topic areas below: Compositions of: sucrose -glucose +fructose, lactose - glucose + galactose. Storage form of glucose -glycogen: where its stored - muscle and liver. Condensation to store glycogen and hydrolysis to release glucose. Insulin: functions -helps glucose leave bloodstream into cells, source- hormone made by pancreas. Hormone which helps to regulate extremely low blood glucose - glucagon weakness, rapid heartbeat, sweating, anxiety, hunger, and trembling. Characteristics of hypoglycemia- (when blood sugar drops below normal)- symptoms- Anaerobic -no oxygen used (less energy made: any macro- in excess will be stored as fat, how to reverse ketosis- slowly reintroducing carbohydrates, ( not on exam) death from starvation- protein energy and malnutrition. Happens later than dehydration: alcohol tolerance, associated enzyme- alcohol dehydrogenase (adh) & aldehyde dehydrogenase (ald). Produced in the liver: site for alcohol metabolism- microsomal ethanol oxidizing system.
